          cotto vs margarito is a sure thing only thing in the way is oscars pick. sure they will fight in a double header but im sure they are not fighting big name guys.
          In the margarito floyd thing it was promotore and greed that stood in the way

            He got the same amount from Baldomir and a better belt.

            So what's the difference?

              the diffrence is that if the williams fight doesnt happen is because margarito is fighting a guy better than williams for more money.
              mayweather faught a guy (my opinion)not as good as margarito for same money.
              margarito is takeing a harder fight for more moeny.
              Floyd took easier fight for more money.
              thats the diffrence. Thats should be clear to anybody. but hey its was smart buisness by floyd. Margarito is just trying to get himself some money.

                You are not going to find many people who have Cotto head and shoulder above Williams.

                You could also make the case that Cotto is easier, because Williams already beat Margarito, and Margarito doesn't want to lose again.

                I haven't formulated my opinion on this yet, but I do think that it is quite hypocritical to give Margarito 100% credit for fighting Cotto instead of Williams.

                  Skill-wise? They're nearly even (in completely different departments).

                  Draw/Name/Money-wise? Cotto all the way.

                    That's what I'm saying... considering that Baldomir had just beaten Judah (a bigger name than anyone Margarito had beaten at that point) it's hard to say that he was less skilled... he was largely unproven.

                    I think you have a damn hard argument to prove that Margarito is taking the harder fight in Cotto instead of Williams.

                      well i have never given mayweather crap fro his smart buisness.
                      william beat margarito, but margarito him self has not beat "great fighters" he beat many good ones in my opinion.
                      cotto beat malinaggi who is a good boxer, zab who has decent carrere, and a hall of famer in mosely. i put him well above williams. williams is good but i think he gets more love than he deserves kind of like margarito actually does
