I am being serious. Lets go back to Margarito-Cotto. Just before that fight Mayweather announced his retirement. Margarito beat Cotto then went on to take on Mosley. Margarito was caught with stuff in his hands then lost to Mosley. THEN Mayweather decides to come out of retirement.
The fact is, If Margarito were still the man he once was Mayweather would have never came out of retirement because he would have had to face him. He would have waited until Margarito was irrelevant to come back.
Since he wanted to fight Baldomir for $8 Million with the lineal championship as a bonus which would help promote his fight against Oscar De La Hoya for at least $20 Million.
If Margarito was the lineal champion, then that's who Mayweather would have fought, then people would have said why didn't he fight Baldomir who beat Judah and Clottey.
People need to understand that Mayweather and Arum are not going to be doing business together, Arum want Mayweather to help his fighter while Mayweather hated Arum for the way he handle his career when he was with Top ranks.
Dumbest shit!..
Mayweather announced he would retire in his post-fight interview after KO'ing Hatton and was asked about fighting, the then undefeated, Miguel Cotto whom had just beaten Shane Mosley..
Nothing to do with Margarito who only fought twice and lost to Paul Williams and Beat Golden Johnson that same year..lmao!..
Obviously Margarito was exposed. i am talking about if he had not been exposed by Mosley.
If he still had that aura of being feared pre Mosley, this fight would have never happened if Margarito was still p4p top 10.
Mayweather retired because he think he had loads of money and can afford to let go of a lucrative rematch with De la Hoya and heal his body, And he cameback when it became apparent that he lost loads of that money..No body is scared of anyone in boxing, Show any fighter the money and they would fight there own family.
mayweather probably beats margarito, but then again, mayweather would NEVER step in the ring against margarito.
cosign, no where in this thread did anyone say marg could beat mayweather, all these may stans dont read before posting.
then what does that say about Clottey then. you pactards keep owning yourselves.
its been said that clottey has to drain himself to make weight and it shows in the weighin pics.
team pac are scam artist
:rofl: :wtf1:
- clottey wasnt weight drained
- dlh wanted pac at 147 not the other way around
- cotto just had to come down 2lbs (which was bs, but either way pac would have destroyed him)
Obviously Margarito was exposed. i am talking about if he had not been exposed by Mosley.
If he still had that aura of being feared pre Mosley, this fight would have never happened if Margarito was still p4p top 10.
I can't believe some people think Mayweather was scared of Margarito's slow ass. On the real, that fight would have been great Mayweather defense HL material.
not true,
imho marg cant make 147 anymore. look how there were rumors before the mosley fight that marg was getting beat up in sparring and how he was having difficulty making weight. As soon as Marg stepped off the scale for the mosley weigh in, someone from margs team handed him a bottle of pedialyte (used on dehydrated children to give them the electrolytes to rehydrate them faster and safer)
marg wasnt going to win that night w/ or w/o those wraps. He wasnt all there that night mentally and physically
I don't agree with that. Mayweather ducks whoever he feels like while he is active. He doesn't need retirement to duck fighters. Besides, Oscar de la Hoya wanted a rematch. That would of happened before Margarito-Mayweather
