He fought those people because he was getting paid to get his butt kicked.
Totally agree with you, Don King got money so he tosses it to Mayorga's face like here you go lil bitch and throws him inside the ring so he can lose on purpose. Its all gambling
??? Tito was a "natural welter" too... He went up and destroyed Joppy. At 147, Tito would have HURT Mayorga too. No excuses...Now, Mayo walks around at 190lbs...how do you figure he is a balerina?
Tito and Mayorga are completely different fighters, both in natural size and skill level. How well Tito did at middleweight does not correlate one bit to how good Mayorga is at 160.
I say Edison stomps him out in 6 rounds or so.
People give Mayorga no credit, hes beat top fighters and won world championships.
Can you name a fighter with better competition?
Vernon Forrest x 2(in his prime after his 2wins of Sugar Shane Mosely)
Cory Spinks
Felix Trinidad
and Oscar de la Hoya!!
He never quit fighting but he just doesnt belong in there with A list HOF.
He could have went a long way but Don King tossed him to the wolfs to make the biggest paydays.
Mayorga KO 8
