Money Mayweather Offers Margarito Title Shot!
Las Vegas - WBC Welterweight champ Floyd Mayweather has announced he will not retire after impressively KOing Ricky Hatton in the 10th round last week in Las Vegas. Mayweather plans to make four title defenses in 2008, with two coming on national television. "We hope to expand the Money Mayweather brand name by capitalizing on existing market opportunities," said Mayweather advisor Leonard Ellerbe. "We have received lucrative offers from ABC, NBC and CBS who would like to invest in the Mayweather brand name in 2008. What that means is Floyd is excited by the idea to make some voluntary defenses of his WBC title on free network TV which would increase his popularity in the U.S."
Initial reports say Antonio Margarito has already accepted the offer before it arrived by fax to fight Mayweather for a flat fee of $1 million on CBS on March 24 at the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles. "I don't care what they pay me, I'd fight Fraud Gayweather for free," said Margarito to El Azatlan newspaper. "I consider one million dollars a bonus to beat Mayweather because I know I will beat him. Then after that, the sky's the limit. IN fact I would pay Mayweather $1 million to get that little chicken in the ring."
With Margarito accepting the $1 million purse, there were no back and forth negotiations ,meaning Mayweather will add perhaps anywhere from $10-25 million to his career earnings. "We are very fortunate Margarito has accepted all terms so quickly," said Ellerbe. "This confirms everything Money Mayweather is about - making the most amount of money as he possibly can. We don't consider Margarito a threat at all and Floyd wants to prove that to boxing fans all around the world. We always respected Margarito but market conditions at the time prevented us from fighting him. Now is the right time for us to fight Margarito. And boxing fans around the world will see it next March."

lol, excues, excuses.What's up with all this Margarito talk? This dude's not even a top 3 welterweight. He's a tough guy, and he is a bigger 147, but come on. I'm not a huge Mayweather fan, but I'm not a hater. People need to stop hatin' on the guy for being the best fighter in the world. He would decision Margarito, and it wouldn't be close. Please tell me what makes Antonio Margarito special? I wouldn't be shocked if Zab beats him if the fight works out. Of course, it'd depend on which Zab showed up.Comment
