    What facts have you posted? That he was ranked the #1 welterweight who Floyd chose to ignore and then fight the Linear Champion and make just as much money?

    That's the only fact you can come up with to try to justify your ridiculous position. It wasn't like Marg was offering him 10million and all the belts. It wasn't like Floyd was sitting around fighting bums for ****ty money while Marg was calling him out. Floyd continued to move on to bigger and better things while Marg still sat around with his thumb up his ass.

      It's amazing how many people hate Margarito. Yea... he's not great but he'll make you work and he'll hurt you. You guys thought Hatton was a monster?? Please... i predicted the exact round that Floyd was going to knock him out. Hatton is the overrated above average fighter that was made to be this big threat by HBO. Yea he has great conditioning and is still a threat but not 147 which was proven in both fights in that weightclass. Tony will not tire easily and will no doubt have you where he wants you over the course of 12 rds. Its up to the opponent to make it out of there as shown by William's amazing heart and conditioning. Bottom line: He's not avoided for his skills; he's avoided because he is all that HBO described Hatton to be only this time its for real.

      Holla if ya hear me

        no he was the #1 welter who he chose to ignore to fight Mitchell for 4 mil instead of marg for 7, then he chose to fight Judah (even though he just lost for 6 mil ) instead of Marg for 8 mil

            The money that was offered before the Mitchell fight was hardly discussed in the public and was made mention of maybe once or twice at the most by who? That's right, Arum. There's a shocker.

                Arum was Floyds promoter for about two more fights at this point. wha is your point? Floyd took lesser money ro fight a lesser threaT even though.THE GUY WAS JUST KTFO less then a year prior and 35 yrs old.

                great fight Floyd..

                  The money that Arum discussed was a possiblity. There was no actual deal laid out, and only discussion of one. At the time, before Judah ****ed it up, setting up a match w/ Judah and preparing for him seemed like the best route. However, Judah sorta' ****ed that up in the end.

                  Before his loss to Baldo, the Judah-Mayweather fight is the one every single boxing fan wanted to see. Mayweather wanted a tune-up at that weight and to fight somebody w/ a somewhat similar style to Judah.

                      great fight Floyd..
                      1. Floyd Made more money fighting Bald.
                      2. Arum is a liar! Why do u take him seriously?
                      3. Mayweather made more money fighting Bald then he would have made fighting Margarito
                      4. What credit was PBF gonna get if he beat Margarito?? Note: Paul Williams didn't get any.
                      5. Fact. Bald beat Gatti and Judah at the time and became a much bigger name then Margarito. Wouldn't have made sense if floyd went and fought Margarito.
                      6. How would it look right now if Floyd wanted to fight Margarito?? It wouldn't make sense cause Paul Williams beat him.
                      7. Fact. Margarito had a chance to fight the elites but lost to Paul.
