Would defeating Margarito have done anything for Mayweathers legacy in retrospect

[Deevel916]

No but many of Floyd's wins were over guys that didn't do anything for his legacy either.

It would have been interesting to see how Floyd dealt with Margaritos non stop come forward style along with the height and reach disadvantage.

8 division titlist....4 division champion


Mayweather 5 division titlist....4 division champion



their is a difference


since he is such a coward name one fighter today fighting that has won more title fights...not trinkets....lineal title fights than him and beat more champions....name one...you cant

I find it funny the only ones calling pro fighters cowards are the ones whove never sparred let alone, fought


your post are a joke, all opinion.....lacks facts and logic



yea im a coward to you on the internet but face to face id kick your ass from pillar to post and show you the difference between talking tough on a message board and stepping in the squared circle

this is a pretty ****** argument... even mayorga was lineal champ at ww and sww.... does that make mayorga an atg??? hhmmm floyd also has NEVER cleaned out a division either.

[bigjavi973]

Lets just say he would beat the crap out of the Margarito Manny beat 120 /108 .

150 in a 26 ft ring with 10oz gloves , after Margo has a 2 yr forced holiday coming of a KO loss and looking like sht against a bum out back Mexico .

Get real fanboys .

you mean like ODH beat mayorga before floyd and before that over a year layoff after his tko loss to hopkins? I can do that too

You don't become a hypejob when you're a top 2/3 WW for almost a decade son.

Answer this question.

Why would a win over a guy who was suspended, punished, and routinely lemented as cheater be something to be proud of??

Margarito is the same guy who lost the rematch to cotto when he didn't have the wraps that got hand suspended. Margarito is the guy who retired early after he could not used the wraps anymore that got him suspended.

Margarito is a disgrace to the sport is all his wins should be vacanted imo.
He is a very low piece of ****t. It makes you look bad for championing such a
******* fighter who cheated to get where he was in boxing.

[bigjavi973]

lol imo in retrospect of course but when u really dig into it u got to think of what other names would he have had to "dodge" to make those fights happen

you mean sharmba mitchell??? LMAO why fight mitchell instead of the reigning wbo champ???

[bigjavi973]

It would have done nothing for Mayweathers legacy.

It would have been Mayweather fighting another "slow plodding forward" fighter.

ok... name the other "slow plodding forward" fighters that had the stamina and work rate that margacheato had???

Look what it did to Mosley's career.

Isn't Mosley one of Floyd's greatest wins? Mosley is a cheater you know.

I so agree with you. i still can not believe people talk about this low life scum that is a disgrace to boxing, to the utmost. He should never be mentioned in regards to any elite fighters, he should only be talked about as the loser/cheat that he was. I remember watching a boxing match on ESPN back in the day where one fighter had part of his ear knocked off by punches, come to find out later that the fighter throwing the punches was Margarito. He is scum of boxing. Wish people would stop bringing him up.

No one that I can remember.

But I'm just being real, Mayweather wouldn't have gotten any credit for the fight, they would have said he should have fought Paul Williams instead, or that Margarito was slow, or that Margarito was only good due to plaster.

In the end, it's Mays fault, instead of fighting Margarito and Paul Williams he fought Baldomir and Ricky Hatton.

So now we are just left to debate

he couldve fought margarito and took his belt away instead of fighting sharmba mitchell.... he fought mitchell cuz he said that no other ww will fight him lmao... same thing about pacquiao.... has the stamina, speed, power, angles SOUTHPAW... name ONE southpaw that floyd fought that has stamina, speed, volume puncher and power?
