    Hah, if I did live under a rock I'd have just as much chance of knowing who the **** Margarito is as the common public does.

    He went on to fight Baldomir for just as much, if not more money.

      Now you can just wait out the longest possible time to give me a shot at you. I'll have to become your mandatory, and then wait til the 11th hour before you get stripped.

      How's that sound?

      Someone call up The Ring and get them to put Dirt E Gomez in their P4P rankings.
      Pay no attention to this dumb ****.. he's only been watching boxing for less then a year.

          I'm not sure exactly what you said, the last sentence was untelligible. But I figure this to be another remark directed towards me, which is absurd since you don't know who I am.

            Lets throw Baldomir in a PPV with some unknown and see how well it does, I guarantee it does worst then Margarito's. Funny how the ignorant try and call others what they are.. you crack me up.
            I thought we were talking about Margarito and Baldomir?

            Which one has the American fanbase again?

            But regardless, Floyd still got $8 million right? So what are you trying to prove here?

                Further, if you're not going to redact the statement I quoted and say Mayweather would lose, then the whole argument is moot. You don't duck people you can beat easily... you simpy ignore them because they aren't worth your time. Which is exactly what Floyd did and other top fighters will continue to do.
                NICELY SAID!!!!!!!!!

                  If anything he is the most underrated fighter at welterweight and threads like this prove he is.

                  The man is a real live threat to anyone... yet many who feel threatened by him being ANY good will always attack him.

                  He is obviously not the second coming of JC Chavez or Sal Sanchez, or Erik Morales but the man is damn good.

                  People will always use the fact that he only held the WBO belt as a negative... but the fact of the matter is no one would fight him so he could have a shot at the others. Spinks wouldn't fight him and elected to fight a retired Gonzalez instead of Margarito, and when Judah took the belts he too wouldnt fight him and chose to fight Cosme Rivera instead, when Baldomir took the sooo called undisputed championship from Judah even he wouldnt fight him. And we don't even have to bring Mayweather who also chose not to fight him and fight lesser opposition for lest money. Even Cintron who has something to prove just keeps saying... "Forget about what happend with Margarito"..... Williams who fought a very competitive fight (It was competitive even though Williams won) and was a great fight doesn't want a rematch.

                  The fact that he was avoided for a long time is REAL .... sure people can try to say that it wasn't true... but they are only kidding themselves.

                    I concur that Margarito is overated. Good fighter, but not as badass some seem to think.

                      We are you douche. Marg at least has fans in America, Baldomir doesn't have a fan base here.


                      Again, what do you know you been watching boxing for a couple months.
