    Floyd not fighting Margarito was a smart move

    Because there is no possible way that you can beat him and look good doing it. Margo would obviously not even acknowledge that Floyd is hitting him and would just make Floyd do laps around the ring boxing as much as he has ever done. Even more so than Baldomir. But it would be WORSE than Baldomir. It would be a horrible fight for Floyd stylistically and it would make him look like he was fearful the whole night. People would be leaving and booing. PPV purchasers would be changing the channel to something else. It would not be a win he could benefit from.

    Clottey looked good doing it until he broke his hand.

        Baldomir didnt acklowedge Floyd hitting him and it didnt matter...

        Acklowedging getting hit, wont win you the fight...

        With that said, I loved margarito tonight...

        The difference is Cintron is there to be hit, and floyd is not... which is pretty much the BIGGEST difference between floyd and everyone else... can, and how... will you hit him...

            i never said Margo would win the fight. Floyd would win, but it wouldnt do anything for him because of how he would win.

              It would be a boring mismatch, yes.

              It was wise of him to wait it all out, to see how it goes with Cotto-Marg.

              After he beats the winner, he'll look good no matter how boring a fight..
