    It takes incredible conditioning to be able to throw that many punches.
    He has about the best stamina in boxing right now. No doubt. But part of what helped him stop Cotto (part) was Cotto getting tired as hell as the fight wore on. I dont think Floyd would tire anything like that. He wouldnt load up on everything he threw trying to knock Margarito out all round every round like Cotto did. He would pot shot and move all night, seeing everything coming.

      The Fact is you said nobody can deny Hatton after he went 43-0.
      The Fact is you said that Hatton is the 3rd BEST FIGHTER in the ENTIRE WORLD...even HIGHER THAN MAYWEATHER.....
      The Fact is You thought Mayweather Would never Knockout Hatton... well guess what??? PBF not only beat Hatton he Knock him out..

      The Fact is a person like you, is what is wrong with Boxing...
      You cant look at yourself in the mirror and admit when you are wrong..and
      Man up and give people credit for **** you thought they couldnt do...

      How can you Call Mayweather anything but GREAT..After Mayweather beat the person you thought was the 3 GREATEST FIGHTER in the world...Higher than what you got Margarito Right now...

      The fact of the matter is, People like you wouldnt give credit to Mayweather if he beat ****ing A PRIME Sugar Ray Robinson....Just because your Hate wont let you...

      So all your demands that Mayweather should fight this guy, and that guy...
      Is a mute point because you will never give him credit anyways because. You represent alot what of these poster on boxing scene represent....

      AVID HATERS, who will never give Mayweather respect no matter what he does..
      Ohhh...I see. You wanted me to give Floyd credit for beating Hatton. So you're saying that because he beat Hatton, why should anybody have anymore doubts at all? Gotcha.

      Throw Tszyu, Cotto, and Margarito out the window. Floyd beat Hatton so he must be the greatest of all time. Sorry, Dios, I cannot make that extraordinary leap of logic.

        I'm generally not comfortable with saying that a current fighter is the GOAT at anything, but...

        I think Margarito might have the best stamina in the history of the sport.

        How the **** do you look strong in the 12th in a fight where you end up throwing 1,675 punches?

        No idea, but Margarito did it.

          But does pot shotting against someone like Tony really work?

          This isn't Carlos Baldomir and his grand total of 13 KOs here. This is someone who is physically not just larger, but much stronger as well. Tony won't be drooling by the 7th round ala DLH. At that point, he'll be in full whip ass mode.

            You talked about Kostya Tszyu like he was pretty close to the GOAT.

            Hatton beat Tszyu. You said many times that Tszyu was not shot when Hatton beat him.

            I can't imagine you rank Cotto as high as you ranked Tszyu.

            I'm not buying it.
            That's because you have no memory of what I said. I always said Tszyu was past his prime when Hatton beat him. In fact, I frequently said what I believed: That the British ref in the Hatton-Tszyu fight was the single worst I've ever seen in boxing. It was criminal. (Even worse than Joe Cortez in the Mayweather-Hatton fight.)

              Its really kind of creepy if you think about it. Even with the hellacious shots that Cotto was giving him, he looked like he could still go another 10 rounds.

                So why did you have Hatton at #3 on your list?

                One win over a past his prime guy in Tszyu, which is only a half win, because the referee gets the other half of the TKO...

                I can't remember if you said Castillo wasn't shot... I think you did say that, not sure though.

                    Hey I hope you're right. It would make my day to see Floyd knocked out by Margarito. I just dont see it happening.

                      Especially Floyd's pot shotting. I just don't see Floyd being able to hurt Margarito. Margarito has a great chin. Surely, Cotto hits as hard or harder than Floyd. Margarito walked right thru Cotto.
