Margarito is a tougher fight for Pacquiao than Mayweather.

[Carpe Diem]

Margarito, a come forward brawler. How is he a tougher opponent for Pacquiao? Can Margarito reduce Manny's punching rate and make him think before he can throw a punch? Can Margarito force Manny to box instead of slug? That would be a tailor-made fight for Pacquiao. The only disadvantage for him would be Marg's height and reach advantages.

I don't think you understand what you said in styles make fights. Mayweather would a nightmare match up for Pac even if Roach is right Floyd with a limited mobility would still bring down his work rate and counter him to death

Yes.

And applesauce is tougher than steak.

damn man. i thought you was talkin **** bout me.

Styles make fights.

Mayweather no longer has the speed that made him the effective counterpuncher he once was. I think that his legs have gone and he has become very flat footed. A prime Mayweather would not of been hit by the shots past prime Mosley landed early on in the fight.

Mayweather can't punch effectively anymore really so his power will be nothing Pac hasnt taken already from the likes of Cotto, Hatton, Morales, Barrera etc.

Why did he go 12 rounds with a blown up LW, Baldomir and Judah ?

The power mayweather has will not trouble Pac one bit. Margarito can punch effectively hes stopped the likes of Martinez and Cotto. This power has the potential to trouble Pacquiao.

Pacquiao has stopped the likes of DLH, Hatton, Morales, Barrera and Cotto along with many others with his power combined with speed and awkward angles. Do you really think that is a past prime Mosley can land big shots on Mosley pacquiao wont?

Margarito has an iron chin and will be unfazed by whatever Pac throws at him. Margarito throws alot of punches and has set compubox highs before so he will put Pac under more pressure than Mayweather.

Mayweather is the tougher fight IMO and Im a Margo fan.

bro, remember in an interview when mayweather criticized cotto for being flat footed against pac?

i think we will see him move around if mayweather and pac ever get in the ring.

his legs are still there, the style he used against both marquez and mosley were effective thats all.

[MOTHER DUCKER]

This thread is lol.. Mayweather easily is a tougher fight

For the record i think Margs gives pac some problems..

[jrosales13]

This two dumbass threads that you have made.

However, I would stat that IMO Margarito would be a tougher opponent than Alexander, Berto, or Cotto

[STRUGG]

no....................just no.....................

[Boss2k10]

Margarito is going to take Pacs best shots and keep coming forward.

No Ariza shakes can prepare Pac for the relentless pressure Marg will give with his relentless volume punching.

Mayweather although difficult will be the easier fight.

[Earl-Hickey]

Margarito is more physically dangerous but not a harder opponent
