Is Mosley even a threat to Margarito?

Difference is, Floyd turned down a fight with a credible threat, so that he can fight a bum with a more lucrative with a title for only $1 more. If it turns out that Margarito takes a soft fight against a Baldomir type opponent in his next fight, then he deserves all the criticism he's recieving. If on the other hand, he chooses to rematch Williams or Clottey, then i dont think there's much that can be said about him skipping over Mosley. Nobody's giving Mosley much of a chance anyway. On the other hand, many people felt that Margarito's workrate, size, power etc..would give Floyd a hella trouble. Dont speak too soon mate, If Margarito fights the clottey or williams next then more respect to him...That would be like Mosley turning down a third fight with oscar to fight winky wright. And baldomir was a bum??? lmao you getting desperate..

I know a Clottey fight was supposed to come off, and then it got cancelled, but I can't remember whose fault that was, so... I can't pass judgement on this one. You are right, if he fights someone good, I won't have a problem with it. Good includes people like Collazo, so... he has a wide range of people to choose from.

Well likewise Margarito, If people are going to accuse him of been scared them i cant really blame them.

I dont think Mosley can beat Margarito but i think anybody with a punch is a threat to margarito. Reason is that margarito gets hit alot, and one of these days its hes gonna get hurt, weather its a bad cut, or even a KO. Every dog has his day

I think the point is that Margarito went half his career calling people cowards because they didnt want to fight him because of money, now he's doing it. Is he scared, no. Is he being a hypocrite, yes. When Mosley was the bigger draw and didnt want to fight Marg. because he felt Marg. didnt bring enough money, Marg. called him a coward. Now that the shoe is on the other foot, noone can call Marg a coward? Beautiful post..green K sent.

Well his (Floyd's) own actions are what caused people to say that. Can't really blame them. Well likewise Margarito, If people are going to accuse him of been scared them i cant really blame them.

How come Margarito turned down 2 mil dollar if Mosley was an easy fight for him? Margrarito may have the advantage but SSM would most probably will gim him 1 hell of a fight.

margarito isnt really a marketable fighter, so hes not going to get any fights if he expects over $4mil+ per fight..i personally think hes waiting to see the outcome of DLH vs PAC and then if DLH wins he'll call him out for a May showdown..and i strongly believe oscar will accept it and not just beat him, but DOMINATE him if they fight.. margarito is a technically amatuerish fighter..and i believe even at this age, DLH will still school him possibly even win by late tko

Nobody is questioning whether he's being hypocritical or not. Its quite obvious he is. This thread is for those who are running around saying that Margarito is "scared/ducking" Mosley. Margarito has faced much bigger threats in Cotto and Williams. Why would an aging Mosley put fear in his heart? My point is that I think people are being sarcastic. When fighters (Mayweather, Mosley, DLH, etc.) would fight someone else other then Margarito because they didnt like the money a Marg. fight would bring to the table, Margarito(and all his fans) were quick to call them scared and cowards. Now Margarito is the one turning down fights because of the money, so they are only doing the same thing Margarito and his fans have been doing for years. Using the same logic as Margarito and his fans, Marg. is a scared ducking coward for turning down the fight for money reasons. Again, thats based on Margaritos and his fans logic, not mine.

Margarito has faced much bigger threats in Cotto and Williams. Why would an aging Mosley put fear in his heart? Regardless of whether he is scared or not, I'm just saying, you're going to hear about it from Floyd fans... Many a thread was made about "Why would Mayweather be scared of Margarito?", and it was all ignored with the words "duck" and "$8 million", etc. etc. I'm going to refrain, because it's really dumb, on both sides. But the sound of revenge is a sweet tune to people who had to put up with this shit in the past. FYI, Margarito has literally 0 reason to be scared of Mosley. Mosley's style does not utilize enough movement to keep Margarito from just firing nonstop. Mosley clearly doesn't have the power to hurt Margarito, and Margarito's output will win him a decision at the very least... he might be the first to KO Mosley.

i don't think so.

His actions are things like money issues when most people agree that he would beat either one of them. Literally identical to the justifications you just gave for Margarito not fighting Mosley. If any Margarito fan tries to justify this shit he's doing now, they are doing the exact shit they criticized Floyd fans for doing back when all Margarito had to make his name was the fact that Mayweather "ducked" Margarito. co-sign......this shit is pathetic.

mosely had trouble wit mayorga cuz mayorga wasnt boxing, he was doing the drunkin master...lol. but mosely should be able to beat margo. on da cards, after all margo. is an easy target, i mean real easy! there's no one easier than mayorga, mayorga is there to make fighters look great and mosley couldn't do it. DLH did it tito did it to a much younger mayorga so no reason shane couldnt do it to an older post dlh, post tito, post vargas mayorga.

Nope but have heard worst like Mayweather is scared of Margarito or cotto.. Well his (Floyd's) own actions are what caused people to say that. Can't really blame them.

Didnt Mosley just struggle with Mayorga? Did he not say that he wasnt looking to take on the new young lions in the sport? He said that during the post fight interview with Merchant. I remember everyone here saying how Mosley would be stupid to step in the ring with Margarito after the way he looked against Mayorga. Now all of a sudden, "Marg is scared of Mosley" LOL. Margarito will mug Mosley if they ever fought. Mosley doesnt have the stamina to keep up with Margarito for 12 full rounds. Did Margarito turn this fight down because he feels they ****ing him over on money? That's the most likely scenario. Is he scared of Mosley? LOL.....I HIGHLY doubt it!
