      ...But he didn't, Mayweather never fought Margarito so all you can do is speculate and hypothesize.

      We do know, however, that Mosley could knock Margarito out.

        Exactly. No matter how good of a chin a fighter has, if his body is broken, then the head will soon follow.

            Chris Byrd and Micky Ward stick in my head as two guys very good at taking body shots. Lennox Lewis as well, he was very good at taking it downstairs.

              l definately agree...

              This was a good thread...surprised theres no die hard margo fans saying otherwise...but regardless i agree that hard body shots is what did him in...now if only cotto comes w the same game plan i think margo will be down in 5 rounds...only bc nobody throws a body shot the way he can...plus u have to consider the last 2 fights have been extremely rough for tony

                No one can take it to the body. Well, Ali could, but then, he could do anything. Nevertheless, that's why it's always a good idea to attack the body. Always.

                  I'm not talking about opinion I'm talking about fighters that are recognized by boxing writers and critics.

                  Also why would you mention heavyweights? If there is a division that needs to go to the body more than any other division it's the heavyweight division.

                    Mosley was killing him with body shots. The one in the first round was soo ****in sneaky and it hurt Marg. When i saw it live it was murder, my cuz and i were wondering why no one noticed it live.

                      Am I the only one who noticed it when Marg almost went down from a body shot in the first minute of round 1?
