Stop saying Margarito is ducking Williams, it's not true.

I don't think i have one just found it funny. you people get serious when your defending your fighters nutsacks don't you? well i'm out tired need to do alot of Shit tommarow enjoy martillo No i dont get serious or mad. and im no nuthugger i just defend ignorant statements made by posters on here that their intention is purely to hate or are being hypocritical. Sure Margarito is my favorite boxer, that doesnt make me a nuthugger. if margarito were to do something i see wrong i would call him out. that goes for any boxer that i like or respect. Mayorga is a funny guy but trust me he knows who margarito is. If he beats Mosley he will right after margarito, thats just the way mayorga works n i like him for it lol

Didnt people accuse Mayweather of ducking Margarito based on the supposely "$8m", Didnt people argue that its impossible for Mayweather to make that sort of amount in a fight with Margarito? Whats the difference here? Unless Margarito fights Dela hoya the williams payday still represent his biggest payday till date, And if they dont take the williams fight then i would say he did duck williams I'll tell you what the difference and I think it is very, very important. Margarito already fought Paul Williams once, and Margarito will fight Paul Williams again. I don't care what anyone says, Margarito did not absorb any kind of damage from the first fight to discourage him from fighting Paul again. He feels like he learned from it and is a better fighter now. At no point did Mayweather ever consider a fight with Tony, it was never in the cards. As a matter of fact since welterweight (because from what I remember he was willing to meet at 140) Mayweather never showed any interest in Cotto either. Listen I am not anti-Mayweather by any stretch. I think he did himself and his legacy a disservice by retiring while the division he was at it's best point in years and without facing any of it's top guys. But I don't take away from what he did, I just think he could have done more, or tried to do more and really reach for the status of the all time greats. The other thing is the Tony will fight Williams down the line, in the near future even though Arum will be an obstacle. Arum sued Tony and Goosen last time for God's sake and they still made the fight, and Tony's supposed to be afraid of Paul? Nonsense.

your point is... I don't think i have one just found it funny. you people get serious when your defending your fighters nutsacks don't you? well i'm out tired need to do alot of Shit tommarow enjoy martillo

Mayorga has no clue who Margarito is your point is...

its hard to judge what Margarito and Arum are truly doing right now when he just barely fought not too long ago. i mean obviously plans are made WAY beforehand but we havent really gotten much info about their plans for magarito except for margarito possibly fighting clottey. for all we know this is just a set up and tryin to squeeze more money from the williams camp or maybe margarito feels he needs more time before he fights williams again. again we dont know what exactly margarito and arum are goin for. mayweather it was always 100 % clear he was goin for the easiest route to the huge payday... Mayorga has no clue who Margarito is

As i said before, margarito, just like mayweather, is weighing his financial options, this thread isnt about pitting one group of fans against another, its about explaining why margarito is doing what hes doing, for every 4 mayweather fans that jump on the williams bandwagon soley to spite margarito, there are 20 mayweather haters who are on the opposite spectrum and this thread doesnt stoop to that level. I think margarito and mayweather are doing the exact same thing, except this time, its margarito who is in the top billing position, and now he knows how it feels to have someone breathing down your neck offering you career paydays, the difference is this guy already beat him, which makes the situation that much more difficult. its hard to judge what Margarito and Arum are truly doing right now when he just barely fought not too long ago. i mean obviously plans are made WAY beforehand but we havent really gotten much info about their plans for magarito except for margarito possibly fighting clottey. for all we know this is just a set up and tryin to squeeze more money from the williams camp or maybe margarito feels he needs more time before he fights williams again. again we dont know what exactly margarito and arum are goin for. mayweather it was always 100 % clear he was goin for the easiest route to the huge payday...

I have a question for those who say Margarito is nothing and he's not that good. Fine let's say that's true. That leads me to my question.........Who has Paul Williams beat? Remember Margarito sucks so beating him doesn't mean anything......right? It comes down to "what have you done lately?" Fact is on July 26th Miguel Cotto was seen as the best welterweight in the world, not Paul Williams, and Margarito beat him. Margarito doesn't need PW. Clottey called out Marg, not PW. Mosley called out Marg, not PW. Even PW is calling out Marg. Why? Because he's the champ. That's just the way it is.

in the words to the late great VIVA MEXICO, "Plain and Basic Common Sense." i find it funny how a lot of the same people saying Margarito is "ducking" Williams also happen to be floyd mayweather fans. like ive asked before but i didnt get an answer, if this is "ducking" by margarito then what word do ya use for what mayweather did with cotto and margarito??? it has to be a lot stronger word because mayweather has been doin it for fuckin years!!!

I can't stand how people are saying that Tony is ducking Paul Williams when it is simply not the truth. 1. First of all he is less than 14 days passed his biggest and toughest fight, having fought two of the heaviest punchers in the welterweight division, He is probably in a spot where he could take a less grueling fight as long as it is an acceptable welterweight champion or contender. 2. The money that Goosen is offering is most likely legitimate, but the 4 million would not be Margarito's purse, it would be the guaranteed amount for Top Rank for Margarito's services on the night, after which they would split the rest of the profit. So to break things down Margarito's final purse would not be 4 million, it would be a bit more than half of that which is a decent purse but he could make it elsewhere as well. 3. Margarito's team is talking about making a bout on November 1st which would actually not be a problem for making the Williams fight or even taking the Williams offer, because the Goosen offer would set the fight date in early 2009 which is still very doable. My whole purpose was to point out that Margarito is not ducking Williams and I am certain they will fight again in early 2009 assuming they both keep their titles and maybe even claim a few more along the way. The Williams fight is definitely the fight we all want to see, but we will just have to wait a little bit longer than expected. Opinions? " GOOSSEN OFFERS ARUM $4M FOR WILLIAMS-MARGARITO II! By G. Leon Dan Goossen has informed **********.com that Goossen-Tutor Promotions has made Top Rank Inc. a $4M package offer for WBA welterweight champion Antonio Margarito to face WBO welterweight champion Paul Williams. Williams captured the WBO title from Margarito via unanimous decision last year. If Goossen's offer is accepted the bout would take place in early 2009." in the words to the late great VIVA MEXICO, "Plain and Basic Common Sense." i find it funny how a lot of the same people saying Margarito is "ducking" Williams also happen to be floyd mayweather fans. like ive asked before but i didnt get an answer, if this is "ducking" by margarito then what word do ya use for what mayweather did with cotto and margarito??? it has to be a lot stronger word because mayweather has been doin it for fuckin years!!!

Thats the general nature of boards in general, the most rational discussion is often held to just a few posts, but the contraversial titles and outlandish accusations draw the most discussions with people throwing around a bunch of bullshit. I personally dont think Margarito is ducking williams as much as i think he finally, for the first time ever, is trying to weigh his financial options. now he knows what it was like for mayweather. Yes sir. But he better step up and fight Paul not to far down the line.

I love how when someone makes a nonsense claim thread like Williams sucks and Margarito never needs to fight him the Williams fans jump in as soon as possible, but when someone just states fact and a rational conclusion they are nowhere to be found. Can someone counter my argument, I really thought the title would be enough to draw people into a discussion but I guess they have nothing.

What about Goosen slating the bout for early 2009 though, it would just be another fight made along the way and on top of it, not replacing it. Any offer of about 2.5 million directly to him and not top rank would just about match it. I'm just saying I think he could make both bouts and make the Williams one even bigger. you cant give margarito 2.5 million and not top rank when margarito is contractually a top rank fighter... it doesnt work like that

He is not the man till he takes care of Williams. If he does win that fight then i would happilly say that he is the man at ww ps. would he have to clean up the titles at ww to become linear champ? i know that there is no linear champ at ww, so how does one go about becoming linear champ in this instance? I didn't say he was the man. I have him rated as the number one but Paul Williams clearly also has a claim to that title, but it won't truly be decided until they fight again in 2009. And yes their is no lineal champ because it retired with Floyd, so the only way to know is to unify, which I think someone will do in 2009 unless Berto avoids the big dogs but even then whoever has the other three would have the legit claim.

:lol1: hahahahhaha.... u know im right... dormidito fuera de base y caiste tu solito.

^^ nice post. which bring us to the conclution that margo aint making more than 2 mill for his next fight... unless he fights a BIGMARQUEE name..? could it be... who knows...:kabong:

Don't let it get to you. Margarito is on top so it's expected that some people would try and bring him down by making stupid assumptions. We all know the rematch will eventually happen. Let the haters hate but they know MARGARITO is the man at welter.

your issue on #2... although true... makes no sense... its his highest purse... even if he doesnt get all the money, its sitll his highest purse... WITH THAT SAID... if someone offered him less than 4 million... margarito would end up getting even LESS, then he would have fighting williams.. What about Goosen slating the bout for early 2009 though, it would just be another fight made along the way and on top of it, not replacing it. Any offer of about 2.5 million directly to him and not top rank would just about match it. I'm just saying I think he could make both bouts and make the Williams one even bigger.
