    a tougher fight means being on the end of loads of punches from an opponent who doesn't care about taking 100 punches a round. Margarito in that aspect is the tougher fight.

    Mayweather would be consider a more difficult fight due to his style.
    mayweather is tougher and more difficult.how about that?

      Pacquiao I believe will control Mayweather, but if Margarito is back all the way, his strength and persistance will make him dangerous in the late rounds. Mayweather just wouldn't be dangerous at all, his will be a struggle to survive.
      Neither Mayweather or Margarito can fight southpaws very well.

        Mayweather just wouldn't be dangerous at all, his will be a struggle to survive.

          Margarito would be an easy fight compared to mayweather.
          Mosley stpped him and i think pac would too. It's ****ing ridiculous to say that margarito is a tougher fight for pac than mayweather!

              ROFL terrible thread, Pac will struggle against Mayweather dearly. Pac was clearly frustrated by Clottey's defence, and he will definitely get frustrated by Mayweather's. Unlike Clottey however, Mayweather will counter his ass even better than Marquez.

                  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.
                  Everything you said about Mayweather is wrong.All he did was getting 2 shots in round 2 and he weathered the storm.He was never hit after that so if you think he's not elusive then you didnt watch the fight.You talked about footwork,Mayweather reacts to his opponent's style.In the Mosley fight he was proving a point,when it's necessary he moves.Many people have always thought Mayweather's punches wouldnt affect them,Hatton is a perfect example.Every fighter who Mayweather has fought felt his punches that's why no one has ever walked through him. same with Pacquiao he wont walk thru him as you say.

                  I dont think Margarito is tougher because he doesnt have any defence,Pacquiao will hit him with every shot in the book and move out for 12 rounds.Pacquiao might be too quick for Margarito and the fight will be stopped around the 8th round.On the other hand this is boxing anything can happen.What we dont know is what will happen if Margarito corners Pacquiao and slows him down with some body shots.Margarito is not a one punch knock out artist but is effective at what he does.

                  All in all I think Mayweather is a tougher fight,he's a frustrating fighter to face in the ring and after the 3rd round it will be one way with Pacquiao getting shots.

                    Mosley threw one Haymaker and Mayweather had to hang on for dear life. Mosley threw numerous Haymakers and landed flush against Margarito and he was still standing.

                    Mayweather is definately not the "tougher" fight.

                      The only advantage Margarito brings into a Pacquiao fight would be his high which would even be an advantage to Pacquiao because then he has more of him to hit, The beating Pacquiao would dish out to Margarito would be worse than the beating he gave to cotto who was even faster than the slower mummy moving-like Margarito, The beating Margarito got in the Mosley fight would be tripled by Pacquiao......Speed kills in boxing.
