Then my head started wondering about some things and remembering certain things and I got to thinking........(By any means I'am not comparing the 2 fighters here with the 2 that I'am about to mention, I'am just comparing scenarios so don't blow this out of the water)


Is it me or does this fight PBF vs. Margarito kinda resamble SRL vs. Duran?
I got to thinking slick fighter all the confidence in the world pressures on him, hes undefeated P4P the best against a harder puncher physically tougher and with nothing to loose is just me?

Opinions? ? ? ?


I'll buy that analogy. But, Duran won the first one against SRL. I don't think Margarito will win this one.

Floyd is like the Yankees, or Duke University{college basketball}, alot of people hate him because he's the favorite to win. Therefore he always has the biggest target on his back, and more pressure than his opponents. Everyone brings there A-Game when fighting him. SRL was more liked than Floyd, so the pressure IMO, might be greater.

And with Margarito,he is in the same position as Duran. I think Duran {at the time of the 1st SRL fight} was more established, or maybe more recognized. But Tony is for real, and will bring it. Will it be enough? Hopefully we'll see.
CMM you should be sad. Margarito is going to get beaten badly. And Duran was proven weight classes below already and had HOF credentials by the time he fougth Leonard, he also had more dimentions then Margarito, Margarito only has height, is one dimentional, and is open up the middle. Mayweather is going to destroy him and I will put "RIP Antonio Margarito's career.... 1996-OVERRATED!!!"
