Just watching some Mayweather Gifs and I must say Margarito NEVER beats him!
Re: Just watching some Mayweather Gifs and I must say Margarito NEVER beats him!
The one where he was against the ropes vs NDou was the most impressive
What I will say though is its one thing doing it to a washed up De La Hoya and Baldimor and quite another doing it to a prime punching machine like Margarito .

Very true but I think the Delahoya that fought Floyd that night was as good as Margarito! He threw tons of punches but is faster and arguably hit's harder than Tony.

I'd have to disagree there . De La Hoya ran out of gas after 6 and thats when Floyd took over . Margarito actually increases his workrate as the fight goes on so Mayweather would never be given any room or time .

Gotta agree with Game. The Elusiveness against Ndou was more impressive than Oscar and Baldomir. Oscar has obviously lost some speed and accuracy from his prime and Baldomir could only hit a stationary target. Either way, Floyd reminds me of that one scene in Spiderman where Peter Parker first gets his spider sense and dodges the numerous punches thrown by the school bully.
OoOooO! That's quite a stretch to say that the version of Oscar Floyd fought could be compared to Margarito. Oscar started the fight coming forward but eventually started backing off a bit once he got tagged. Margarito would not once back up from Floyd. Power-wise, I think Margarito would do more damage to Floyd if he landed some shots. And Game also mentioned the stamina. Oscar fades, Margarito gets stronger.

Its all about styles just because Antonio Margaruto defeated Miguel Cotto doesn't mean he has a better chance than he did before Antonio Margarito is still too slow in footspeed and handspeed and throws his punches too wide to beat someone like Floyd Mayweather and i still think Miguel Cotto gives Floyd Mayweather his toughest fight out of all the Welterweights.
Re: Just watching some Mayweather Gifs and I must say Margarito NEVER beats him!
It's a fight I'd still love to see.
Re: Just watching some Mayweather Gifs and I must say Margarito NEVER beats him!
I think Mayweather would win a UD against Margarito. Cotto exposed Margarito in the first half of their fight and Floyd is a much all round better fighter than Cotto.
Re: Just watching some Mayweather Gifs and I must say Margarito NEVER beats him!
Mayweather could easily take a UD if he stayed centre ring, but he's not been doing it recently. Still favour him slightly with back on the ropes, but I feel Marg will be more effective than those guys in that position, particularly when he throws four/five consecutive lefts as Floyd likes to shift from side to side when defending those combinations (+ Marg does damage hitting arms/shoulders, whatever gets in the way of his punches.).
Saying that, I wouldn't bet against Floyd making the necessary adjustments.

Not actual fights but GIF's... ???
OK.
Re: Just watching some Mayweather Gifs and I must say Margarito NEVER beats him!
Never say never. I do not see Mayweather maintaing & being able to stay in the center of the ring against Margarito,no way.He will find Tony with many shots but will himself be at range,Tony really does mind missing your chin....just as long as he finds your arms,chest,etc.The more I think on this one as time goes....I wonder if Floyd can sustain and dictact his bedazzler style against Margarito without some serious & big trouble.
Re: Just watching some Mayweather Gifs and I must say Margarito NEVER beats him!
I'm just annoying Floyd is not continueing on.... I always new that he doesn't have that boxing heart of other fighters... I mean, you don't want to see fighters going on until they are useless. But look at Roy coming back. Why? Not because he needs money etc. Because he loves the game.. He loves training. Loves the hype. Loves getting in the ring. Loves facing one on one a new opponent...
Floyd does not appear even tempted to return into that glorious feeling... His love was for victory and money... And he earnt enough of both of those that there isn't temptation to come back for the boxing..
Re: Just watching some Mayweather Gifs and I must say Margarito NEVER beats him!
Cotto was able to out box Margarito for the early rounds & Floyd is much better fundamentally & defensively than Cotto!
Many times I saw Cotto just put his hands up & let Margarito just walk in. Theres no way he does that with Floyd! Mayweather would punish him coming in & keep Margarito on the end of the stick all night!
Re: Just watching some Mayweather Gifs and I must say Margarito NEVER beats him!
I think Floyd is a great defensive fighter and is far too clever to fight Tony the way Tony likes to fight.
Margarito is the only guy with the Roberto Duran bravado and cojones to really light into Floyd and get him good and fired up for the fight. Cotto is very respectful in the pre fight stuff. Tony doesn't give a shit, he's worked his ass off and he's always going to try and show the other fighter up (bar the Cotto fight).
I think if Tony was a better inside fighter like Duran was then he'd no doubt 100% win. But since he's a guy who doesn't mind getting hit Floyd will be more than willing to oblige and hit him numerous times.....only thing is Floyd won't have ANY effect on Tony's chin or his body or his spirit, he's a warrior.
Tony has everything stacked against him when it comes to BOXING but if he was able to cut the ring down and do a little damage here and a little damage there he could shock the world....I wouldn't bet on him but I'd be cheering for him
