    Why do people say Margarito should be at middleweight? Numbers that say he shouldnt

    Antonio Margarito is 5'11 fights at 147 pounds.

    Vs Cotto he probably weighed 160
    Vs Cintron 160
    Vs Williams 157

    Ok so if he fought at middleweight he would easily make the weight limit and probably wouldnt gain more than 2 pounds.

    Now lets look at some current and past middleweights.

    Kelly Pavlik 6'2 -Middleweight Champion
    Vs Lockett he rehydrated in at 170
    Vs Miranda he rehydrated in at 171
    Vs Taylor I he rehydrated in at 168

    Marco Antonio Rubio who will be challenging Pavlik for his title in his last fight rehydrated in at 175 pounds vs Enrique Ornelas who also came in fight night at 175 pounds.

    Jermain Taylor rehydrated in at 171 against Bernard Hopkins who came in at 168 in the first fight at middleweight. Jermain Taylor against Raul Marquez comes in at 169 while Raul Marquez weighed 170 fight night.

    Winky Wright came in at 168 when he fought Felix Trinidad who came in at 169. Trinidad in his fight with Mayorga came in at 168 pounds. Winky Wright came in at 171 against Sam Soliman.

    --------------------------------

    So as you all can see if Margarito was a middleweight, on fight night he would weigh around 160-162 pounds tops. Now take his fight night weight and he will be fighting or would have fought the best middleweights who would have been weighing anywhere from 168-175 pounds.

    SO he would be a middleweight fighting super middleweights and light heavyweights.

    Is this fair for Margarito? No it is not.

      I agree. Walking around weight and fighting weight are very different. Marg would get bullied at middle or super middle, depending on who he fought.

        We shouldn't even be talkin bout this ****** **** anymore. PBF's name is a hot topic again, so for the most part all the Marg hate threads about him bein too big for WW, and similar Pwill threads made in response to em have disappeared. PBF nuthuggers have other **** to whine about now.

            I mentioned that cuz that was always the source of all the Pwill nuthuggin/Marg hate that clouded the forum for so long. All that talk about Marg bein scared to move up and afraid of bigger fighters was just comin from PBF ****riders livin thru Pwill. Wit that reference, I was pretty much sayin don't get the haters started again, now that they're otherwise occupied.

                  So it is fair for him to call out Mayweather and Pacman
