Why is Floyd held to a higher standard?

[letsgobrady]

They were held to the exact same standard until recently. Just because a bunch of nuthuggers on each side talk a bunch of sh** doesn't change that.

thats not true because floyd could not have fought cotto when pacquiao fought him or with a catchweight without any hate and the same goes for clottey there is no way anyone would have been fine with floyd fighting clottey right after a loss

[JustinFloyd]

who did margarito do to deserve a fight with mayweather? why didn't margarito have any names on his resume before beating cotto? what has margarito done besides beat cotto in his entire career?robert guerrero is more deserving of a fight with floyd now than margarito was back then.

most stupid on this forum! lol! Margacheato is the KING of Welterweight that time! and who Guerrero beat in WW? Berto the PED eater? Margacheato will make Guerrero pea blood and kneel down begging! lol

[The Big Dunn]

Nah. He took the easy fight against punchbag Baldomir. Everybody knew Margarito was the man.

two options:

stay with TR fight cotto and margs
leave TR fight Baldo and ODH

I think any professional chooses the path to ODH because its the most lucrative at the time.

Imagine if Hearns took a 2 year vacation so he could avoid Leonard.

If Hearns could afford it. Im sure he wouldve. We live in a different era of boxing now. Its not 1981 anymore.

actually he was the wbo champ, which was a fringe organization at the time. he had beaten six heads lewis and kermit cintron. that makes you the man?

Cheato hasnt won a big fight in his life. Hes never beaten anybody on Bertos level in his life. I dont count the first Cotto fight for obvious reasons.

i'm sorry but no one on the east coast even knew who margarito was before he fought cotto some people may had heard of margarito but the only reason certain people out here heard of his name is because it was mentioned with floyd

If Floyd had wanted the challenge, he'd have taken Margarito and then DLH. Baldomir was a ridiculous fight but definetely the easiest.

LMAO, but everyone knew who Baldomir was, RIGHT?

No one on the East/West/North/South, knew who Baldomir was.
