Could Mayweather do THAT to Antonio Margarito?

[HaglerSteelChin]

if marg were to move forward against floyd like this he would smell the canvas within 3 rounds. you underestimate the effect a counter has when you are yourself throwing a punch

Floyd has no pop at 147, he couldnt even knockout Zab Judah or was KTFO by guys like Cotto and rocked by Baldomir. He couldnt knockout a blown featherweight Marquez.

Floyd has power at 130 and 135, if 400 plus Pac shots couldnt stop Margs, it is unlikely that Floyd could do that in 3 rds.

What floyd can score are flash knockdows, due to speed if you dont see the punch coming a fighter cant prepare for it and they suffer a KD, other than a flash knockdown i dont see any damage if this version of Floyd.

yes manny kept hitting him but never truly hurt him aside from the cut. Pac was worried after round 8 if you noticed, round 9 he came out on his bike.

wtf did you expect? for a 148 lbs man to KTFO a 165 lbs man???!!! GTFO!!!

wifebeater jr would never "rock" marg. marg's face wouldn't even be bruised after a fight w/ wifebeater jr.

wifebeater jr would potshot to a decision.

pac did a good deal of running from marg today so lets end that discussion right there. Pac couldnt even counter marg when he was on the attack, he had to accept the punishment before unleashing his own attack. I still contend pac cant handle a slick and elusive boxer like uhhhhhhhh juan manuel marquez.

yea i aint impressed...if he wants to fight for the 154 pound title then you gotta stop using the "he's small" excuse. Watching this fight made me realize that it wont even be a contest against floyd. He is not going to land, 20% would be a best case scenario and we all know that 20% landing will get him counterpunched to death.

mayweather can't handle effective pressure fighters. he likes time to think in the ring so he can setup and they don't give you it. why didn't mayweather counter the slow plodding castillo over and over again? instead he was pushed back and couldn't get off anything of significance in both fights. same against delahoya and for much of the hatton fight till they ran out of gas. this is the reason he avoided margarito, cotto, and pac.

[Mrmza]

I don't think so. I really don't. Manny Pacquiao was amazing tonight and showed us once again, why he is the best Pound 4 Pound fighter on the planet. And we can now see why Mayweather declined the fight with the PacMan.

Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever......Mayweather is a b!tch first and foremost....

[Anti~Jalandoni]

Can Mayweather beat Margarito? Yes.
Can Mayweather beat Margarito in the fashion Pac did? No.

Styles make fights.

Pac will give a much impressive and exciting fight than Floyd..

[Phil Ivey]

Floyd would embarrass Margarito but his style won't brutally punish him. And btw Margarito laughs at everyone's punches, even Mosley's and he got KTFO'd.

not only would floyd not lose a single round---he would not get hurt like manny did--and you dumbasses need to get your heads out of each other's asses----floyd is a deceptive puncher---he was ****ing shane up--hurting him with body shots snapping his head back----he's not the floyd from 140 pounds---the killer killer--lol---but he has power--don't think he doesn't----don't sweat it though---we don't have to worry about if floyd would have did what manny did to tony----tony was dominated and beat up----manny ko'ed hatton earlier than floyd tko'ed hatton at a smaller weight class---manny stopped oscar while floyd fought to a sd---manny knocked down jmm 4 times in their 1st fight at a smaller weight class while floyd made jmm move up 2 weight classes and only knocked him down once---whatever punk----

when floyd fights manny--manny will be stopped by round 8 after a dominating performance by floyd--simple as that---

To be fair I did see Margarito visually stunned once, later in the fight. I think it was by a straight left. But that was the only time I ever got the feeling that Margarito was on shaky legs from any one punch. I did think the fight was gonna be stopped though because of the swelling though.
