    Take Margarito, make him less durable, but faster and more athletic

    That's Benavidez in a nutshell

          Margo has faster feet.


          You don't see anybody make Margo miss entire combos like Plant did to Benavidez. Margo stays on boxers.


          Margo beat Sergio Martinez btw. Sergio Martinez is no Caleb Plant

            Did margo fight someone like Plant who was on his bike so much? David is not a true pressure fighter because they just keep swinging for the fences non stop. He is a a presser boxer puncher.

                Yes I saw that fight. He was a good mover but he stood in the pocket much more than Plant did.

                Benavidez struggled a bit early on but he still outlanded plant in the first 5 rounds at a higher accuracy, so I think his 'struggles' are actually being over inflated just because he hit air a few times. Nobody is going to just beat up Plant in the first half of a fight he is too good.

                  Margo knocked Sergio Martinez through the ropes. meaning he caught up to Martinez.


                  Margo would straight up run you down like he did vs Cotto. Benavidez is a walker. he just walks around slowly like his brother.

                    Isn't Margarito a cheat though? Or was there not actually proof for the plaster of paris? Mosley's and Cotto's team suggested so.

                    His record is consistent since he got knockouts at 15 years old and hasn't endangered anyone's life, so I am not sure about this.

                      It's unclear if Margo used plasters even back then on a young Sergio Martinez?
