Antonio Margarito's Comeback Plan is to Fight Retreads?

[Mr. Ryan]

Last 3 opponents, Joshua Clottey (30-1), Paul Williams (32-0) and of course Golden Johnson (25-7-3, who was a tuneup fight after losing his title in a close decision to Williams.) Not sure what you mean?

What I'm talking about is the last fight with Johnson and the upcoming sad attempt at a superfight with Castillo.

Becuase I like Castillo more than I like Marg, I hope Castillo nails him with a perfect left hook.

Agreed. I love Castillo. That man is a great fighter. I wish he could have met Ricky 4 years ago. If he upset Margarito I'd be happy as hell. Yes sir.

its a trend these days...Floyd is fighting one ..LOL

[Mr. Ryan]

Well the same thing could be said of many fighters, especially Floyd, who bid his time vs guys not on his level until get got ahold of De La Hoya. If Margarito fights Golden Johnsons and Castillos only to get ahold of Cotto or Williams again, then all this talk on your part is for naught really. So we'll see.

Clottey is being offered for Cotto by Arum, so why would he take Margarito now? He would not. He obviously will take the bigger fight in Cotto.

Collazo has not done squat lately, and looked pretty bad vs Mosley who just lost convincingly to Cotto. Collazo is a high-risk low-reward fight...a frustrating southpaw. You are asking a lot of Margarito in this case and offering little.

I love Ouma, but he just lost to an utterly unknown fighter. His career may be over. He may be going downhill quickly. I love Ouma and would love to see him beat Margarito, but credibility in that fight is wanting as well.

Ouma's career isn't over, that is if he can stop with the late nights and the drugs and the general bad decision-making that has plagued him in recent years. Ouma's concentration and focus are almost beyond repair at this point, but he has so much left in the tank physically. It's a shame that he's throwing it all down the toilet like he is.

Hell Floyds an 140 pounder..so what are you talking about??

And Hatton in his prime..and is also 43-0.

Marg is a giant of a WW fighting an old azz Castillo who will be fighting at 147.

[Fox McCloud]

because he said he didnt want to fight him TWICE..

and instead of fighting one of the MANY threats at welter ..he fights someone who looked horrible in his welter debut and went back down to have fights at JW..

Put this notion on hold for two weeks, and then we can talk about the prospect of an upcoming Cotto fight.

Remember Pacquiao said he was fighting David Diaz, and he didn't need Marquez, but he ended up doing it anyway. For all we know, he might just be saying that about Cotto to try to get a bigger split, who knows? I certainly don't, and neither do you.

Anyways, you can't knock Floyd for the size of his fighter, because 1. He doesn't boil down, and 2. He just fought a JMW.

To be honest, I'd say he is fighting a 135 pounder.

Did Castillo have a single good showing at 140?
