Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Antonio Margarito

[TheDarkKnight]

I would love to see this match up. what about you guys

[SigmaMu]

Dream on.

I have been wanting to see this fight for years.

[rjj tszyu]

I'd go Mayweather wide UD

[Box_Ing]

Before watching the exciting fight between Cotto and Margarito I would have gone for Floyd but now if I had to put money on it i'd go with Margarito by TKO. I could picture Floyd completely outboxing Antonio for the first half in similar fashion to how Cotto did. However, I reckon Antonio would just keep coming forward and landing some heavy blows.

First time poster by the way!

Floyd can take this UD easily. He can put on a Baldomir type performance and the fans will hate him for it but Margarito wouldn't be able to touch him.

Cotto did his best Pretty Boy impression and looked good doing it. But he's not the really thing. Mayweather can move for 12 rounds and he wont get caught on the ropes...and if he does he can slip the punches and move away.

It wont matter how good Margarito's chin is cause Floyd wont even bother trying to test it. I dont even want to see this fight because how it would go. Floyd would be on his toes, moving beautifully and not taking a single risk for the entire fight.

I think Floyd can win a UD like some here said he can fight in circles all day for 30 rounds. I hate the mofo but I have to acknowledge his skills and stamina.

But who knows maybe Margarito can cut the ring and caught him eventually.

Exactly!
I don't think we would see fireworks in that fight. Same reason why I wouldn't be too excited to see Mayweather vs Cotto. I can even see Mayweather knocking down Cotto after accumulating punches from all kinds of angles.

Mayweather would get an easy decision most probably...but I can also understand the few people who voted for a ko by Margarito(you never know ...),but I really can't even come close to understanding the people who voted for Margarito to win on points.........

[Spicoli]

I do not see this happening But...I'll take Margarito TKO.And yes,I know Mayweather is a Boxing phenom and ring master.Did he un-"retire" yet ?

[GRBOXINGFAN]

Styles make fights and Margarito is tailor made for Floyd to embarrass. I thought Cotto had enough boxing skills to avoid the onslaught, he didn't and couldn't protect his body. Floyd moves way to fast laterally and will dance for 12 rounds and win 9 rounds to 3. An easy fight for Floyd, I'd love to see it though.

[GAME]

I give Floyd the edge in this one but think it would be as tough if not tougher than the 1st Castillo. Similar style, pace etc . Floyd may have to steal the fight by a point or two .

What Cotto did for 6 Mayweather can do for 30

Mayweather UD12 without a scratch

on the baldomir fight i think floyd would hav tko him or maybe knocked him out if he didn't hurt his hand by the 4th round baldomir was so tired and disscouraged i think it was obvious. a guy as slow as margo floyd might even be able to tko him because he will be able to hit margo somany times can get inside and slip block punches and counter margo is used to putting out 150 punches a round but to even hang with floyd he would have to put out about 200 maybe more and if u noticed when he faught cotto he was holding his punches because cotto wasnt in range most of the time for margos style he only wants to fight in side never useing his reach. for the record let me add margo didnt break cotto down cotto tired margo wasn't hitting cotto enough to break him cotto just didnt have what it took to move for 12 rounds. mayweather doesn't even do it he takes about 2 rounds off when he wants to take the fight to a decision

I think it depends on the size of the ring and the ref. If PBF isn't allowed to hold and it's a smallish ring, Margarito gets to him. It wouldn't look like Baldo, cause Baldo doesn't have power, or throw that many punches. Margarito does. PBF would get manhandled if it's a small ring and Kenny Bayless refs like he did with Cotto. He was telling them no holding when they touched each other.

PBF makes Margo look bad the first half, then gets worked over the second. Similar to Cotto, and Zab by Clottey. PBF will slip alot but those punches land on the arms and shoulders, and take their toll through the fight. Margarito is too big for PBF and his game plan is too break him down. If he is smart, he doesn't even throw punches at PBF's head. He aims for the center of his chest, and at his shoulders when throwing head shots. Body is right at the belt line. When PBF tries to hold he leans on him and pushes him against the ropes.

If it's a large ring, and the ref lets PBF hold all bets are off.
