Goossen Offers 4-Million For Margarito-Williams Rematch

Arum offered $7 million in 2005 and Mayweather turned it down to fight Mitchell. The following year he upped it to $8 million and Mayweather decided he'd rather pay Arum $750k to get out of his contract rather than fight Margarito. If you followed boxing back then, you would know the facts. HBO constantly brings up the fact that Mayweather ducked Margarito because it's a fact...
I love the way you twist the real facts, Mayweather actually brought out his contract to face oscar ( Who wouldnt work with Arum Again).
Arum also lied to Mayweather that there isnt enough money in a fight with Oscar for him to pay Mayweather $20m....and guess what happens? Mayweather made more than 20m for the oscar fight.
HBO bring Mayweather up to sell Margarito Fact!Comment

2) Are you referring to 2005? Wasn't Floyd at 140 through june for the gatti fight? So, to be clear, you are saying that Margarito, who had a belt at 147, wanted to fight a 140er. Is that what you are saying?
Um, yeah. I followed boxing back then. Hook me up with a link. Thanks.Comment

Mayweather knocked out Hatton. During the post-fight interview, before the sweat even dried, he was being called a coward because PBF didn't call out Cotto.

Yeah, people need to let things sort themselves out before throwing out these wild accusations. The thing is Margarito is such a hated fighter because he has either beaten their favorite fighter or exposed him as a coward that they're quickly trying to discredit Margarito.
...
All people are asking Margarito to do is to take a huge pay jump up to a career high to try to clarify the title picture at welterweight.
Ring Mag has Margo at #1 and Williams at #2 with a vacant champion.
That sounds like an ideal fight to me. Not to you?????Comment

The 7 million dollar offer Arum made up to make Mayweather look even worse when Maywweather rejected the 8 million dollar.
Margarito however, did call out Mayweather before he was fighting Mitchell (they say it during Mayweather-Mitchell), but they never made him an offer.Comment

Nobody hates Margarito. Stop trying to stir the pot.

Where is 2501 when you need him? I havent seen any of his article where he critise Margarito Fanboy for not wanting to fight Williams or in not calling out williams.....The same 2501 who claimed his just a boxing fan..Last edited by Ray*; 08-03-2008, 05:00 PM.Comment

Was Hatton the #1 WW in the world when Floyd fought him? (like Cotto was when Margarito fought him?)Comment
