Actually, Judah had already lost to Boldimir by the time Mayweather came onto the scene at welterweight and all of stars had moved up in weight. Margarito didn't have that stand out win at the time and was still seeking recognition. There weren't much talent but he did put it on the map but mainly becuase no one else was there. -
Mayweather fought Mitchell at welter before Judah would end up losing to baldomir, their fight was already ready to go before judah lost, welterweight was garbage then though, Vargas, De La Hoya, Mosley, Trinidad, Mayorga, Forrest had all left, your right.Actually, Judah had already lost to Boldimir by the time Mayweather came onto the scene at welterweight and all of stars had moved up in weight.
