Well Margarito might not be a polished boxer but he's tough and too tough for anyone to stop at 147 and being tough, being able to take punishment is a talent when you can draw someone into your fighting style. Margarito is more dangerous than anyone Floyd has ever fought.
Zab Judah has been more focused since his loss to Baldomir...he was very ready for Cotto despite having lost vs Baldomir and Floyd.
If Floyd acted professionally then he'd give the fans what they wanted and if he's not able to KO Baldomir (which he wasn't going to do anyway) then he should make him look bad. He doesn't have to gloat or showboat or anything like that but he could have boxed aggressively and made Baldomir swing and miss and counter him with the handspeed we all know Floyd has.....but no, Floyd broke a nail and didn't WANT to throw.....well Gatti didn't WANT to hit Mickey Ward with his broken hand but he did it and low and behold he's the fan favorite.
I don't ask anything from Floyd that I wouldn't ask from any other fighter. Floyd has all the talent in the world but should he be compared to Ray Robinson, Ray Leonard, Tommy Hearns, Roberto Duran, Willie Pep? NO!
