    That goes for anyone that fights PBF.
    His style is similiar to JLC and Castillo did very well in both fights,just that Margarito is bigger and stronger.The only thing Margarito has to adapt to is the speed of PBF. The Santos fight was wrong man he won that one and your forgeting Santos was weighing 175 pounds that night and couldnt stop Margarito from punishing him.
    I have a feeling Margarito and PBF are good friends, I smell something fishy here.

      4 sure looking forward to that one!! PBF is taking on all comers and Margarito would be a good match up!! I'd like to see him in against Oscar at 147!! That'd be a mega fight!

        Well, good to hear things have calmed down a bit then. I really want to visit Central Asia someday, especially the silk road sites.

        Hey, I thought Abdulaev looked good, no shame in losing to Cotto, the guy's a boxing machine and wears you down.

              The only think I really see to compare Castillo and Margarito's style is pressure. Castillo likes to apply pressure to get inside and hook to the body. Margarito puts pressure on his opponents but for the most part fights on the outside where he can land his wide punches. Margarito is big and strong but is made to order for Mayweather. He can't fight on the outside and beat Mayweather.

                I really wonder if his team might want to look into this.
                I doubt it, they might want him to lose.

                  PBF's speed will be the only advantage he will have againist Margarito. People underesrimate the fact that Margarito can box, if Floyd doesn't take advantage of Margarito being a traditionally slow starter he will be in serious trouble. Margarito will walk through PBF punches and either win a decision or stop him late. This is also the reason that if Floyd moves up to 147, he should fight Judah. Even though Zab has had a revivial at 147, he still carries the label of being chinny. On the other hand Margarito has a chin (like every Mexican it seems) and knows PBF can't hurt him.

                    I don't think Mayweather can seriously hurt him but if he comes in thinking he can't be hurt by Mayweather he just might end up hurt. That's the same way Gatti thought as well and we seen what happen to him. It doesn't matter how good Margarito can box he still isn't on Mayweather's level. Mayweather has many advantages over Margarito. Speed, defense, much greater boxing skills and the only advantages I give Margarito is being taller and bigger. His reach won't matter because Mayweather's speed will neutralize that. Margarito is just too wide of a puncher to beat Mayweather. Mayweather would see every wide punch coming and counter Margarito to death.
