Whats the real reason Floyd fought Baldomir?

[bsrizpac]

Exactly. So obtaining the WW lineal title wasnt in Floyd's plan once Baldo beat Judah. Right? Then why when the topic of Floyd ducking Margarito and fighting Baldomir instead comes up, certain fans always say "because Baldomir was the WW champ, and Floyd wanted the WBC strap" ? How bad did he want it, if he was willing to face Spinks instead?

Jesus ****ing Christ what's your goddamn point anyway?

Floyd wants Judah. Judah loses to Baldomir. Floyd wanted Judah and that title remember?

Floyd ponders options. Floyd considers Spinks at a much higher weight. Floyd considers some other guys. Floyd decides, **** it I'll take the title I originally wanted.

So his options were:


Guy with the LINEAR Title
Big Name Dental Appointment Guy who had ducked him earlier (twice)
Another guy with a well known name at a higher weight class (couldn't possibly be in possible prep for an Oscar showdown...nooooo....never that)
Or COMPLETE NO NAME who no one gives two ****s about.

**** I can't imagine why he snatched the title. And I can't imagine why he fought Judah after that since the SAME ASSCLOWNS that Spam now were calling him out for taking the title then and not facing Judah.

Assclowns.
Tool.

Except...he wouldn't have been undisputed at 147. And he wasn't after beating Baldomir. I didn't know all three belts were on the line.

Look, I'm a fan of Floyd's but he took the easy route by fighting Baldomir. It's 2008, Baldomir is nowhere to be found...guess who's still around?

Did you read me say Margarito was the easier option? No i didnt...I was answering the thread's question and my answer still stands.

Look, nobody denies that Baldo was the easier fight. But, do you think that the fight would have happened had Baldo not held the belt?

Just because he looked at other fights doesn't mean he didn't want the WBC WW belt.

Exactly i dont understand what argument he seem to be looking for, he ask a question and he got his replies and now his getting angry..Why?

[COACH WEBB]

It is basically ILLEGAL to take the thread starter seriously anymore.

[bsrizpac]

Actually no Floydboyz will tell you any of this. There are like three guys that might talk about it.

The rest of it is YOU SPAMMING this board along with commnmang and Viva Mexico/Ferocity repeating THIS STUFF over and over and over again.

So basically, no one says it, you make about a million threads claiming that EVERYONE is saying it, but somehow all I see is your CONSTANT SPAM on the subject. Your SPAM far outweighs their SPAM.

This will answer your question. He's talking to himself then getting worked up about it. He hates Floyd SO MUCH that he's now arguing with himself by spamming the board.

Your wrong. Baldomir was nothing but a limited Journeyman who got lucky by catching an unprepared Judah. I dont remember ANYBODY getting excited about a Floyd/Baldomir bout. Nobody wanted to see that crap!

What would that make a cotto win over an inactive Judah? Look a win is a win whether Judah was unprepared or not had nothing to do with Baldy

Who's angry? Abo'sworth finally gave an honest answer, and i congratulated him on it. Many other Floyd fans agreed with him.

Is Abosworth now a Floydhater because he posted something unfavorable but true about Floyd???

[IMDAZED]

He was considered he man after beating Baldomir, beating Margarito he wouldnt have been considered that.

That's a lie.

First of all, he was already the man.

Second, no one thought Baldomir was better than Margarito. He still isn't.

Finally, if Foyd really felt that way, he woulda fought Baldomir after he beat Zab.

But he had NO other options but Baldomir and Margarito so he went with the easy route.

Come on, it's not rocket science.

[S.G.]

it's just boxing politics

floyd is far from the only offender

[Dirt E Gomez]

This thread is 8 pages, so I'm sure it's been said... but the reason is because Floyd set up for a big, big fight with Judah. Judah spoiled the deal and lost to Baldomir. So he beat them both instead and then got the recognition and name of Judah and the belts of Baldomir.
