Gennady Golovkin vs Prime Antonio Margarito

[AntonTheMeh]

The Margarito that beat Cotto would go 12 rounds. He'd punish ggg.

Any version of Cotto loses to ggg in 2.

ggg is a middleweight. rito would get the dog **** beat out of him. there's a reason he campaigned at ww.

[AntonTheMeh]

ggg is a jr middlewight murking middleweights. margarito was a big ass welterweight taking welterweight shots. margarito would not last 5 rounds.

[DondiNeverLeft]

No comparison. It would be worse than what Shane did to him. Possible brain damage because Margarito takes a beating well.

If that is your story, but for a guy who act very positive about Margarito that is a rookie mistake. So you are admitting you are a total fraud with your Margarito fanhood.

That is much too easy~

chop it up how you like playa aint that serious to me, I could have easily edited if I cared.

[K-Nan]

Margarito would be decapitated in 5. But then again a prime Margarito was nowhere near GG's weight class, so idk why this is a debate

You could have, but it would stay the same in my post so that really changes little. You are really in a ****ty spot, I can't fault you for trying to play it off but any real Margarito fan ain't making that mistake faker~

Lets see. An A to A+ level Middleweight against a B+ level Welterweight.

It is kind of easy. Margarito had a monster level of toughness, but even with that, there are levels to this game, and weight classes. Antonio fought going forward, and he would not be able to against GGG. It would be very one sided, due to styles, size and skill level.

I don't think that highly of Daniel Santos and have watched that fight both of them.

Margarito did exactly what at 154 except look suspect against Santos? At 147 he looked suspect at times also if you really want to get into it.

So now you don't think "highly" of Santos. He was a champion at the weight on top of having a big weight advantage on fight night. Maybe you have that mentality cause Foreman beat him(he was inactive also).

Daniel Santos he lost to at 154
Manny he lost to at 150 which is junior middle
Cotto he lost to at 154
He beat that dude at 154 pre Manny

Off the top of my head that is 4, 2 I wouldn't include because that was late Margarito but none of those fights proved he was any kind of big dog at 154. If a welter can not make it at 154 and Margarito did not then they will not have success at 160.

Cotto 153 and also coming off a beating, on top of that, Cotto corrected many mistakes.

Margarito never looked good at 154. Did you ever watch his fights with Daniel Santos? Name one significant win for Margarito at 154. I'll wait.

With that said, Golovkin would beat the hell out of Margarito within 5 rounds.

Yes I have plenty of times, which is why I know you bull****ting on your comment on never looking good. That is the problem with many boxer fans on here. You see a fight or two and they make a judgement. I've watched Margarito develop from when he didn't have many fights and watched him develop. He put it on Santos. He deserved a win or at least a draw. I've seen much worse cuts that didn't get stopped.

What is a prime Marg? He he ever had a prime? He beat Cotto with wraps and then got ko'd by an old ass Mosely. Again, what era was marg prime and what run of fighters did he beat that are worth mentioning that made marg prime?

Funny considering you have Trinidad on your AV. How bout we mention the fights Trinidad had in NY prior to getting busted? Thought so.

Margs beat Cotto cause Cotto wanted to be exciting and made mistakes.

oh well..... you got me. We all cant be flomos who has his boxrec tatted on their forearm.

Daniel Santos is mediocre at the championship level, he isn't a total clown and he didn't blown Margarito out but that fight showed a lot of limitations for Margarito. Since he never went back to 154 until the end there were reasons for that. That is why this specific question in relation to Margarito is a joke. In a fight against Golovkin that would be at above 154 this kind of stuff matters. Some people obviously have no clue about what Margarito did thinking he knocked out Rosado faster than Golovkin, so something needed to get said for those that could be influenced by such talk that is in no way connected with what reality was.

If I wanted to be real mean to Margarito in this thread I could because Glolovkin would take advantage of so many things, but I also don't need to do it because it is an obvious question (even a die hard Margarito fan like yourself knows the answer, hence why we are talking about how I view Margarito at 154 not that). I don't really like using those last Margarito fights at 154 that is clearly a non vintage version, but it is not like he changed any views of mine either in regard to his capabilities higher up.
