Did Margarito "Deserve" a Fight With Mayweather in 2006?

[ElGranLuchador]

He fought him to make sure he didn't get stripped by the WBO. Notice he waited until the last minute to fight him? Wonder why?

still at that point margarito was very hyped he pretty much made the wbo belt what it was he really didnt need it

So you really think that a fight with the less-accomplished Williams proved who was the best moreso than a fight with Cotto? The WBO belt didn't have anything to do with it?

yeah after having hold it for so long marg had emotional links with the wbo belt but marg said it himself that williams was a very akward fighter and that cotto was perfect for him still he picked williams and lost but at least he was confident enough to go for the bigger challenge

I don't know about the emotional links part... but I agree that it was brave to fight Williams.

My question though, is if he was so confident that he would beat Cotto, why didn't he just upgrade from the WBO to the WBA?

Hmm, that's kind of strange... I don't know many that rank the WBO as highly as the "Big Three".

It's kind of in limbo between the real belts and the fringe belts.

Margarito is kind of a weird dude though it seems like.

Holy crap. Any fighter who says "You don't deserve a fight with me" is a cowardly ducking *****. Anyone wonder why it is only Floyd who says these things time and again?

Americans seem to prefer cowards more than warriors more and more nowadays.

I still haven't figured it out completely. It's easy to see Fake Floyd is a fraud and yet Americans are pitifully ****** in seeing it.

Fake Floyd is a duck and a coward.

ANYONE WHO SAYS OTHERWISE IS AN IDIOT.

Just read Fake Floyd's own words.

"I'M NOT FIGHTING TO PROVE TO THE FANS WHO'S THE BEST".
