.....before Margarito defeated Cotto. Not true.
Here is a timetable of how things went down following the Margarito-Williams fight:
1. Margarito said that a rematch wasn't necessary because he thought he beat Williams.
2. A few weeks later, Margarito changed his tune and subliminally admitted that he lost the fight saying that he didn't start out busy enough and that he will start workin' earlier next time.
3. He then took that new game plan and took it out on world beater Golden Johnson even though he was Williams's WBO mandatory and could've enforced his position at anytime.
4. He then completely abonded his WBO mandatory spot and went after the IBF title against a guy he already defeated and made cry the first time around. Williams made a optional defense against Quintana and lost but got his title back with a first round Ko. You know, actually avenging his loss...something Tijuana does not do.
5. During the Margarito/Cintron post-fight interview, he didn't mention Williams and called out Cotto saying, "he must fight me".
6. After beating Cotto, Goosen made a 4million dollar offer to him and The 8 Million Dollar Man turned it down and now accepted a less risky fight for half as much money, 2mill.
CONCULSION: Mayweather turning down 8mill to fight Margarito, for a less risky fight for the linear title and still making 8mill and going on to fight for 20 mill in The World Awaits = Good Business Decision. Margarito turning down 4mill for a 2million dollar fight = Bad business decision.
The Difference: Mayweather COULD'VE beaten Margarito but chose the bigger money, less risky fights. And Margarito CANNOT beat Williams and therefore chose the less risky fights for less money.
Wait a minute, I guess that means that Margarito actually did make a good business decision. . Scratch out the above in blue font.
