Don't be surprised, I've said this for the longest. Putting Margarito in with Spinks is a big mistake.
Mayorga didn't do so bad against Spinks... And, Margarito is a better overall fighter than Mayorga... Spinks would of had his hands full I tell you that. And, Spinks chin is/was not all that...
To be honest he was old... Cruz was not a bad figther... but, also Casa is/was old bro... like he is/was really done as a fighter... If you look he had to land a punch from hell to beat Katsidis... Katsidis was ahead on points and on the verge of winning that fight. Casa just didn't have it anymore...
HUGE Casamayor fan, so I know what he was capable of in his prime. The Casamayor that faced Cruz in comparison to the one that faced Katsidis are too different. I'm sure Casamayor didn't train that much for Cruz.
Going by their last 5 opponents' win before they fought Pacquiao/Mayweather; How many of them came off of a dominant win against top fighters of their respective division?
I'll show you what I mean:
Mayweathers last 5 opponents:
Marquez - Came off stopping the 2 best Lightweights atm that have never been stopped in their careers.
Hatton - Undefeated and just came off stopping Jose Luis Castillo in 4 rounds.
De La Hoya - Came off a dominating TKO6 win against Mayorga who was a top 5 JMW atm.
Baldomir - Came off a clear UD against the #1WW atm Zab Judah
Judah - Came off a loss & three knockout victories-----------------------------------------------------
Spinks would have outboxed the **** out of Margarito, true story
possibly but i highly frickin doubt it. he and all those other fake clowns who claim to be "linear" champ owed margarito a shot but they were too scared.
Mayorga didn't do so bad against Spinks... And, Margarito is a better overall fighter than Mayorga... Spinks would of had his hands full I tell you that. And, Spinks chin is/was not all that...
Well Mayorga punches from weird angles. Margarito, you pretty much know what to expect.
why do people keep pretending judah was the number 1 welterweight? on paper yes in reality no. mayorga, spinks, and judah all ducked margarito. he was the number 1 ranked welterweight for years. why do you think they never fought him? don't give me that he was not a draw bull****. they fought cosme rivera, carlos baldomir and miguel angel gonzalez but they can't fight the best fighter in the division? too bad they wanted to hide like mayweather and never gave him his chance. cause we all know if margarito had beaten judah floyd would fight him................LOL!
co-sign.............if judah did face margarito and marg kick his butt there no way out for gayweather...! nice green k for you....
WW Spinks could have outboxed anybody especially come forward fighters like Margarito, easily.
spinks outboxes anybody? yea except michelle picorrilo, zab judah, antonio diaz and mayorga who he should have lost against. those guys just have his number. but margarito would be easy.
