    HAHAHA.

    But Floyd fight Oscar? **** get the riot gear!
    Are you saying a prime Cintron is the same as an old DLH?

      He defeated Corrales who was a Top 10 P4P fighter and moved up in the list. His status only got stronger as he kept moving up in weight. There were two guys he couldn't have surpassed no matter who he beat......Hopkins and Jones.

      Those two haven't lost in over 10 years but when they did he took over as THE NEXT BEST GUY. Winning a title at 154 and beating a unbeaten Top 10 P4P fighter in Hatton only confirms that he is the best P4P fighter in the world.
      Juan Lazcano roughed Hatton up and nearly KO'd him were it not for the ref.. .. some P4P fighter!
      Just goes to show that the P4P title doesn't mean much anyway dos it?
      If Cotto wins against Marg he will be the better welterweight.. and really, that's all I care about.

        Which Margarito is better Status Wise..The One that Fought Paul Williams or the one that will fight Miguel Cotto..???



        So if Cotto becomes the best fighter in the world after he just got through beating Alfonzo Gomez and then Antonio Margarito...


        What will Margarito be if he beats Cotto...????
        A Top 3 or 5 fighter in the world and sport...???


        Since when does beating Margarito becomes such a huge accomplishment....and deserving of p4p# 1 status..??

        Paul Williams Margarito

        What happen to Paul Williams after he beat Margarito...???
        Did he even get in the top 10 p4p..??

        And this right after Margarito beat a 30-1 Joshua Clottey and undefeated Kermit Cintron for the first time.....

        (A PRIME Margarito)... when he had (the most feared man in the world tag)

        Cotto Margarito


        But Cotto becomes P4P #1 fighter in the sport if he beat A Margarito who last two wins was against Golden Johnson ( WORLD CLASS BUM) and a repeat victory over kermet Cintron...?????



        Explain How This Margarito is better then the Margarito Paul Williams Fought Status wise...if you compare to the two fighters Margarito fought before he fought each fighter.....????

        Paul Williams vs. Margarito ( Clottey, undefeated Cintron)
        Miguel Cotto vs. Margarito ( Golden Johnson, repeat victory over Cintron)



        THIS SHOULD BE INTERESTING..!!!
        margarito has more hype going into the Cotto fight than the Williams fight. Nobody was saying Margarito/Williams was FOTY material before the fight even tho both guys are known to throw a lot of leather for 12 rounds.

        Personally I don't think Cotto/Margarito will be FOTY.

          As far as stock goes, the Margarito pre-Williams would of been a higher degree fight than the Margarito post-Williams. Margarito had won over Clottey and Cintron as you mentioned and he was still the WBO champ. However I think the post-Williams Margarito is a more dangerous, hungrier fighter because he knows he is not getting any younger and has the opportunity to establish his name as the true force that he is at Welterweight.

            And for those who says his status higher now, must think that Margarito two wins going into the fight with cotto...

            is better than his 2 wins going into the fight with williams....

            Which is CRAZY...!!!

            I dont understand the logic..

            How is This Margarito is better then the Margarito Paul Williams Fought Status wise...if you compare to the two fighters Margarito fought before he fought each fighter.....????

            Paul Williams vs. Margarito ( Clottey, undefeated Cintron)
            Miguel Cotto vs. Margarito ( Golden Johnson, repeat victory over Cintron)

            So do you think the Margarito that is fighting Cotto right now...Is more hyped then the Margarito that fought Williams...??

            And this right after Margarito beat a 30-1 Joshua Clottey and undefeated Kermit Cintron for the first time.....


            Margarito That Fought Williams had (the most feared man in the world tag)
            ...???
            and BUMP..!

              Slightly, only because on paper this is a bad style match for Cotto.

                    Margarito is going to destroy Cotto and then we'll get to see Williams/Margarito II.
