I dont get all the hate on Floyd, he fought Judah who it seemed like people wanted to see because of the whole south paw issue. Now he fights Spinks because the money is right, I would have loved to see him fight Margarito or Balomir, but I think in Margaritos case, he needs to prove himself more. He isnt a big name yet and Floyd is fighting big names. Thats the same with Baldomir, although I think that fight could very well happen after Spinks.
There's no reason why Hatton-Baldomir shouldn't happen. They both need an opponent and its what the fans want. Why can't Hatton's people get it together? :mad:
I thought Margarito was fighting Clottey and Hatton is fighting either Urango or Urkal? Baldomir looks like he is going to be the odd man out. His best other bet would be against Cotto but Arum won't risk it in the first fight at 147.
I think you're right about Margo, Hatton and Cotto. SSM said he's not fighting until next year, so, with Quintana-Urkal, Cintron-Suarez and Williams-Mitchell getting it on, that leaves out Collazo?
I can't understand for the life of me why Mosley, Margarito, Hatton, Cotto and everyone else at 147 not named Floyd Mayweather aren't calling this guy Baldomir out.
Mosley might if it is early in 07 I think, Margarito will fight him but i dont think Baldomier would fight him because he doesnt offer enough $$$. Hatton and Cotto are just unsure of themselves and want fight anybody elite until they are forced too.

Bad style match for Hatton...Mosley will look like a bitch if he takes the fight. After Floyd called him out if he fights Baldomir he will look like he ducked because he would get paid way more off a Mayweather fight. Cotto doesn't want to fight someone this tough in his first fight at 147. I have no idea why Margarito isn't fighting him (except maybe he doesn't think he can get the fight). Everybody else I am totally lost about. Btw I don't agree with any of those reasons just pointing out the logic behind these guys' decisions.
I wouldnt be surprised if it was Mosley either. if he wins he becomes the undisputed 147 champ, and can better control the negotiations with Floyd when they fight. But if he does fight baldomier, it bet not be in 06, but Jan. 07 Also I wonder if margarito will challenge Mosley and if Arum will make a offer of about 6 or 7M

Mosley, Hatton, Margarito, and Baldomir need fights. If two of them don't end up fighting each other, it will be a truly sad year for 147lbs.

can't argue with that logic.
