    i bet you margarito is stronger than corrales.

    i bet you margarito hits harder than corrales.

    those make a big difference in a fight.
    ok, u watch boxing...u would kno that at the time floyd fought corrales, he was p4p one of the hardest punchers in boxing. what good did that do him??margs is not a power puncher, corrales was. what ur saying just doesnt make sense.

      i think he could have beaten all of them except for 1. kostya (depending on which kostya and at what stage of his career) or 2. margarito (because of workrate and size possibly)
      Lol. Tsyzu wasn't at his best when Mayweather was at 140, so that win would have meant nothing to his critics, (even though honestly, Mayweather would of beaten Tsyzu in his prime at 140), Marg would lose at least the first 9 rounds with plaster before losing, and a plasterless Marg would lose every second of every round. To think May couldn't have beaten Casa is ******, but Casamayor would have had the best chance by far, and gave him the hardest fight, though I'd still favor Mayweather.

        i mean im not saying margs cant win, but im sayin ud have to be brave to have bet on him in a fight with floyd. i dont see him winning against that type of speed, skill and precision.
        castillo gave him a tough fight.

          corrales and margarito are not the same kind of fighters.

          corrales was a power puncher.

          margarito is a pressure fighter.

          plus they are totally different weight classes.

          you're not making sense.



          how did baldomir go the distance with floyd while corrales got beaten down?

          corrales is better than baldomir right? why couldn't floyd take baldomir out of there? size.

            u were arguing that margs had more power than corrales. margs doesnt. im not tlin about floyds power, doest matter. i kno margs doesnt have the pwoer to bother floyd, thts the point. margs is good as a pressure fighter but hes no jose luis castillo. hes a slow prodding come forward fighter. i dnt think anything he throws would cause enuff trouble to pressure floyd.

              The fighters in his division Floyd Mayweather Jr. fought or the fighters in his division he didn't fight?



              DIDN'T FIGHT
              Acelino Freitas
              Joel Casamayor
              Steve Forbes
              Stevie Johnston
              Paul Spadafora
              Kostya Tszyu
              Miguel Cotto
              Antonio Margarito


              DID FIGHT
              Genaro Hernandez
              Diego Corrales
              Jose Luis Castillo
              Arturo Gatti
              Zab Judah
              Carlos Baldomir
              Ricky Hatton
              Oscar De La Hoya
              I would have loved if he could have fought Casa and Cotto. Kostya would have been great as well.

              PS. Oklahoma city in 7

                we're not talking p4p power here buddy.

                corrales might have been an awesome puncher at super featherweight but margarito had good power at welterweight.

                that's a big difference.

                why does manny pacquiao look more beat up in clear win at welterweight than he does in competitive fight at super featherweight?


                lmao

                that slow plodding come forward fighter beat everyone or arguably beat everyone except shane mosley.

                name ONE fighter mayweather has beaten that would beat margarito.

                      possible.

                      you might think so and i might think so but obviously delahoya didn't think so.

                      or else he would have taken the marg fight.
