      The only fight I want to see Margarito in is Margarito-Williams. Clottey may have been beating him at the time when he broke his hand but ultimately he lost. I would prefer to see him in with Williams because he actually did beat him. Clottey is my second choice.

        so then in your eyes, Clottey beat him and now that Margo is giving him the rematch, he's "picking his fights". Are you really this ******?

          Lets just say this

          Whoever he fights people will say he is ducking 2 others. (Williams, Clottey, Santos)

Margarito is no beast, he isnt most feared. In Margarito's eyes Williams and Santos are most feared. If not then why not avenge your losses instead of fighting guys you have already beaten? Makes no sense to me, other than the fact you may think you can get two belts by beating Clottey, who just may shock you again.

            Margarito has been getting too much credit, if you want my respect back go fight either Williams or Santos instead of trying to milk your belt. You did that the first time by fighting guys like Johnson, Lewis and other no names who were WAY smaller than you, go fight in a weight class you belong in or fight Paul Williams, the man who has given you your best payday and continues to put food on you and your wife's table not to mention your little boy, do the right thing Tony.
            Well santos should avenge his loss to the man that took his WBO belt at 154 Sergiy Dzinziruk.... Marg hasnt even made his 1st defense of the WBA belt yet and clottey isnt official yet...and Lewis was a natrual welterweight that never fought under 147. The only 2 peaple that were "natrually" smaller than Marg were manuel gomez and golden johnson..."GO FIGHT IN A WEIGHT CLASS YOU BELONG IN"...??? Williams is 6'2 with an 83 inch reach longer then Ali fighting at welter weight... Shouldnt he be at 168 and above? I would love to see Marg and williams... but come on now lets get serious.

              I said way smaller, funny you didnt mention Lewis' height, in fact Margarito is taller than everyone he has beaten, put him against someone his size he has lost.

                Margarito fought and beat the guy that Mayweather ducked.

                You respect Mayweather for not having the balls to face the top challengers in the past 5 years, but lack respect for Margarito even though he tried to get a fight with Mayweather's best win (DLH) and has beaten better opposition at 147.

                Mayweather's best win at 147 was Judah. Both Clottey and Cotto beat Judah in more impressive fashion, and Margarito has beaten both of them.

                  Did Margarito jump up 24 pounds past his starting weight in boxing? Until he does that dont ever hate on Floyd, you have no merit to and anyone who says Floyd didnt do such and such at welterweight knows nothing about boxing. Only a few have gone up and fought the best at a weight that much higher and none have continously did it.

                      yeah he "picks his fights" which is why he fought williams in the first place. Remember, Williams turned down the rematch and is now going to fight the guy even YOU said was beating him untill he "hurt his hand". bunch of ****in hypocrites.
                      Williams never turned down the rematch what the hell are you talking about Bobfather Jr. That myth was already disposed of by Goossen and was laughable the first time.
