    After tonight, there is little to no doubt that Mayweather would put a clinic on Margarito.

    Margarito will land less than 15% of his punches, with mayweather moving in and out landing what he wants to.

    Margarito might win two-three rounds as opposed to being shut out, like Baldomir was.
    their styles are not similar at all, Baldi has 1/2 the workrate, 1/3 the conditioning, and 1/4 the power (the final two figures are estimated of course, but you get my point). That fight would NOT play out the same IMO, floyd has a longer reach than baldomir, not so with margarito. Floyd dodges many punches and even the ones baldy hits him with are devoid of power, not so with margarito. Baldomir was slowing down after about the 4th round, NEVER so with margarito.

    Not to say margarito will win it hands down at all, but margarito will be a much tougher fight and will give him many more problems. If he can avoid the overhand right that will be thrown about 35 times per round for 12 rounds, then he wins a UD.

      I dont know guys. Margarito may not be Sugar Ray Robinson but youve got to give him some respect. Baldy is similar to Margarito but there are enough differnces to make it a totally different fight. Baldy is by far the better techniqal fighter but Margarito has mad power. The big difference between the 2 is that Margarito punches non stop while Baldy is techniqal. Floyd can eat Baldy up because no one is more techniqal then Floyd but Margarito will just come in throwing bombs back to back to back and that will be harder to slip.

      Margarito is somewhat slow and sloppy but he makes up for it with power and throwing punches in bunches so it will still be a very differnt fight, "maybe"

        it will be another baldo case if floyd fights margarito. he aint got no special skills for an exciting outcome.

        DLH or mosley is something floyd should look forward to.

            Some of you comparing a Margarito fight to a Baldomier fight for Floyd are delusional.

                    i dont see how a fight with margarito would be any different.
                    Floyd was fighting a Middleweight in Baldomir, it was a Welterweight vs Middleweight for 12 rounds, Baldomir is bigger than Margarito, floyd would have an easy night. Lets floyd vs dlh happen and margarito vs clottey and williams, should margarito win both fights we will see a big fight mayweather vs margarito for the unified welterweight titles

                      even if that were to happen I doubt Floyd would fight him.
