Who Do you respect more Mayweather or Margarito?!

[Texanballer]

Simple question do you respect Margarito for fighting toe to toe like a warrior and giving fans what they want opposed to mayweather who is a skillful boxer which is not what the fans what to see?

What do you all think? Mayweather had a record of 39-0 boxing and Margarito has a record of 37-5 fighting.

It all comes down to which style you like the better.. Do you like the slick boxer Mayweather, with deadly handspeed etc. or the brawler, Margarito. I don't respect any guy of these 2 guys any less than the other. You could argue, that Floyds 147 resume isn't the best in the world. But in terms of talent, you gotta respect him.

Definately Mayweather for me. Don't get me wrong I respect Margarito and I think he has a great heart and is a true warrior, but I just admire Floyd's attributes more in my fighters. I love the amazing ability and blinding quickness. Plus I think he has beaten better guys and has more substantial accomplishments at this point than Margs.

Mayweather. He won an olympic medal when he was a teenanger. He has beat great fighters like Hernandez, Diego, Castillo twice, Judah, Gatti, Oscar, & Hatton. At least 2 of the guys I just named are Hall of Fame. He did all of this without losing. His beat down of Gatti is 1 of the all time classics.

[Zocalo]

Mayweather. People forget that he cleaned up a division before coming up in weight. People forget that he wasn't always a defensive fighter. He would let his hands go often. It is a shame that his hands didn't hold up and he adapted to a more defensive style that the avg sports fan doesn't appreciate.

i respect margaritos detemination and his never-say-die additude in the ring, HOWEVER, pretty boy didint have to move back down a division for any type of advantage, he challanged himself by constantly moving up and trying to put his abilities to the test by trying to take on marquee fights in every division he moved up in, with the exception of 147, every division he made every attempt to take on the best possible fight at the time he was in the division. At 154, its still a ****ing mess right now so i dont care about that division, at 140, my keywords were ATTEMPTED, because to this day, none of the best at 140 fought each other.

Margarito gives it all he has, however, he needs that size advantage otherwise hes basically ****ed, its why hes at 147 and not 154/160, margarito would get killed against bigger guys or more guys his size not named paul williams who punch for power, if that wasnt the case, hed be campaigning at 154 or gunning for kelly pavliks 160 crown. Mayweather had the ability to move up, ****, julio cesar chavez moved up when he needed to just for the challange of it.

But you know what, i am not voting, they are both fighters who provide me entertainment, i was one of the few who bought the ESPN ppv because i thought juan diaz/margarito/mosley being on it was enough for me to get it, juan didint get on it, but cintron and margarito was the reason i ordered it, if margarito is in a marquee matchup i have always watched it, with mayweather, i have followed him for the last 9/10 years plus i watched his olympic matchups because we were allowed to watch olympic broadcasts at my school in 8th grade because my teacher would tape them for us, the events we wanted we all voted on them, and my teacher would bring them in.


You people are so caught up in whos a coward and whos a ***** you forget the big picture, fights are fights, you may dislike a fighter, but no man who can beat your sorry ass can be considered a *****.

[Left Hook Tua]

obviously mayweather is the better boxer and more talented but i don't care for him as a boxer or as a person.

i respect margarito for his toughness and heart.

[Left Hook Tua]

count 1 extra for marg and 1 less for floyd.

i clicked the wrong option......

[Dirt E Gomez]

I'd respect Margarito more if he proved he could box worth a damn... but I don't see that happening anytime soon.
