    PLEASE READ! Article about Margarito, measured against the all time greatest welters.

    Great Article from espn.com about how well Antonio Margarito measures against the all time greatest Welterweights.

    Pretty interesting. Please read and comment.


    Antonio Margarito might be one of the best welterweights of our generation, but how would he have fared against the best 147-pounders in boxing history?

            I think Pipino vs Margarito would have been awesome as well. While it lasted...

                Margarito vs Basilio would be a great war but I can't see it ending in a KO. Basilio wasn't a noted puncher at all.

                I think Margarito would possibly beat Cuevas (chin vs punch) but I'm not sure about the rest. He can trouble all of them though with his strength and durability.

                  Margarito KO's Griffith
                  Basilio doesn't ko but beats Margie
                  Prime DLH decisions Margarito but Marg comes on strong towards the end
                  Leonard decisions Margarito
                  Hearns MIGHT KO Margarito look what he did to Duran....but if it goes past 6 I see Tommy fading

                    Tito would have put hands on Margo. The article made Tito seem like he had a **** chin most of his KDs were early before he got warmed up. Tito KO8
