      Margarito was far too slow, both on his feet and in his hand speed, to cause Mayweather any sort of trouble. Mayweather should probably have fought Margarito but he would have likely defeated him very comfortably.

        Lol Floyd made 25 mil vs oscar. Arum didn't want to pay him for that fight or vs cotto and Hatton.

          Of course it does. Margarito fights exactly like Kovalev, and Mayweqther like Hopkins. Floyd is also damn near 50. Didn't you know?

            He asked for a 20m guarantee from Top Rank. Ended up taking half that much

              That's the reason why Floyd ducked him

                P Will would have been a better matchup than Marg... He could actually punch at 147...without wraps.

                Marg woulda been like Baldomir vs Floyd if Baldomir threw more punches. Marg woulda taken a Gatti like beating except he wouldnt have been stopped

                Marg was a lot more controlled than Maidana (which is worse vs Floyd) and a much lighter puncher. JLC was actually formidable. He was fairly well rounded when he was on point. JLC could fight and box. He wasn't so one dimentional at least not marg's scale

                  Slow but would have got the job done Floyd don't fight people he knows he'll lose to haven't you notice ?

                    yeah but he said he would fight marg if arum gave him a 20 mill guarantee. obviously that was absolute bollocks and he knew it as he happily accepted 10 million guarantee after leaving. he offered floyd career high paydays for all those fights. he offered him a 7 million guarantee to fight hatton before he even fought hoya. floyd only made a 8 million guarantee for hatton after fighting hoya so arum was more than generous with him. why don't you blame floyd for being so greedy and pricing himself out? why did floyd change his 20 million guarantee to 10? kinda weird no? when margarito was out of the picture....CHANGE!

                      disagree if Margs was so easy Floyd would have fought him I stop reading at the point were you were trying to compare Margs to Baldo know your boxing Baldo is not a better fighter then Margs period
