If Cotto couldn't keep Margarito off him after constantly connecting, how can floyd?

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

I wish we knew. That fight would have brought out the truth in floyd.

everyone can speculate, but a real mother***a that don't just talk about it, but be's about it would have taken that challenge. My prob is when a dude 2 weight classes cAlls out Floyd, he fights him cuz he got called out. Margs was calling his shi t out all day every day. And margs was widely viewed as a beast and the best at ww at that time

Anyone think someone like Toney wouldn't have fought margs then? Or winky, or cotto (obviously) or Shane, or Sergio, or jmm, or katsidas... I mean, enough with the "who woulda won" bullsh it. It don't matter. We know one dude has excuses, and the other dude fought everyone at 147 to at least try and be great.

Bro.

You know the story.

ARUM.

Top Rank.

etc.


Arum wanted to lock Floyd in with him for a 3 fight deal and Floyd didnt like it.

I love how this site blames every fight that doesnt happen solely on Floyd.

ok, so we should blame margs, who fought everyone at ww. i understand.

so you're saying arum couldn't have gotten him a dela fight?

Floyd hits hard enough.

He pot shots the crap out of him, By using the lead right hand(With the elbow at the end) or lead left hook.

Then he turns or clinches.

He counters a lot.
he occasionally takes a few shots.

Margo is a slow starter, Floyd wins the first 5 rounds easy.

It gets a little more competitive in the middle as they trade off rounds.

Margo might finish strong like in the Paul Williams fight.

Floyd dominates the last round.

the bold is how i see the whole fight.margarito is too slow to be competetive against floyd and floyd is too smart.if you watch the clottey and shane fight they both use similar stratagies ,they tried to keep the fight in the middle of the ring throw there punches then turn and or clinch in certain situations same thing when they ended up on the rope they immediate grabed margo

Please dont ever compare Cotto to Mayweather.

You're right, don't ever compare Cotto to Mayweather.

Cotto fights the guys that Mayweather's fans only wishes Mayweather would fight

Margarito would only land 4 punches the entire fight.

he fought everyone at ww when?margo was at ww before floyd and who had he beat at that point?

cotto fights who arum tells him to fight and 1 fighter arum never talked about cotto fighting was floyd mayweather

Those were some monster shots margarito ate like nothing- half the power of anything floyd has ever landed.

And let's say for a second floyd has an incredible workrate, which he doesn't. He still wouldn't be able to hurt Margarito enough to slow him down.

Sure he's got his legs, but marg is a master at closing space, and even if he runs track for 6 rounds, marg is eventually gonna walk him down.

Or he'd be boo'd so much for running(because he'll have to run the entire 3 minutes of every round to be safe) that he'd be forced to fight, or everybody loses respect.

Floyd's jab to the solar plexus would have Tony folded in half like a cheap card table.

The punches Cotto landed were not "monster shots" and his power has always been overrated.

Shane walked thru Cotto's punches like rain...He couldn't walk thru Floyd's shots..

Another ****less wonder.
