    not to mention he might get knocked the **** out
    margarito is no where near the caliber of even an old dlh.

    paul williams is another story... he's tall, busy with decent speed and adequate power, but he got hit cleanly by sharmba mitchell and williams don't use his reach and height to full advantage just like diego corrales didn't... so we might see a floyd/diego type performance on floyd's part.

      Unfortunately for him, his legacy is getting hurt regardless of the reason.

      I agree if he is retiring because of his body or his desire breaking down, then it is the right thing to do, but he shouldn't have wasted time waiting so long for an Oscar rematch... he should be fighting Cotto in a couple of weeks and then getting out.

        I do. I mean my heart would be with Marg, but I definitley wouldnt bet on him to win. Floyd has the skills to avoid punishment and counter the hell out of you. I never thought Margarito would KO Floyd or anything like that.. I just thought because of MARGARITO's position when the offers were made ( #1 ranked welter weight in the world ) he rightfully deserved the shot and with the money being offered, why not? ...every fighter who steps in the ring has a shot to win..

        I don't think Floyd was as confident in victory as I was for him or else he would take the fight. Because he was the bigger name and more skillfull fighter, it pissed me off that he would "discredit" such a warrrior like Margarito and make excuses not fight him, only to fight less deserving opponents...all the while his fans went along with it...cuz they just cant believe that Floyd would "avoid" ANYONE. Marg DESERVED a shot at the best , he earned it. Like it or not.
        Had Floyd beatin him... I wouldve given him his props.. I do that when my fighter loses... I was a HUGE Vargas fan and gave mad props to Dela for standing up to the bully and whoopin that ass. But intead Floyd dissed him and avoided him and I waw labled a HATER because of it.

        Ive never said Floyd ****** or didnt have skills. I just merely pointed out in his career where he avoided fighters. Floyd fans need to accept that he QUIT without fighting the best. I wont call it retired , becuase he is way too young and healthy to retire.

        Cotto would whoop that ass tho'.

                U can talk trash about him at the 147 division all you like. You can, belive that he isn't gonna fight winner of Margarito/Cotto all you want. That is where the problem stands.
