    Top Rank head honcho Bob Arum is attempting to put together an alternative superfight for WBO welterweight champion Antonio Margarito. Unable to reach an agreement with Floyd Mayweather, Jr., Arum has set his sights on middleweight Ronald "Winky" Wright, regarded by many as one of the top pound-for-pound fighters in the world.

        Margarito isn't as fearless as his fans make him out to be.

          Wait, Dominican is looking for the Golden Boy offer.
          He's got a counter, he's still fishing it out of somewhere though.

              Because margarito has NO REGARD for competition. Winky would have UD Margo 12 rounds to Zero.

                Didn't they offer him 4 million dollars? If so, that's pathetic. If Winky was #2 at the time (which he was) and they offered Mayweather 8 million, why not offer Winky like six?

                    Had Winky made more than 4 mil at this time of his career against a WW?
                    I am not even sure whether he made that against JT.
