if williams really offered margarito $4 million........

[Mojita]

Fact is Margarito doesn't want to fight Williams because he just beat a high-profile star in Cotto and wants to cash in. If Williams was a bigger draw than he is now, then Margarito would probably have taken the fight [which I still doubt]. Truth is, Williams HAS Margarito's number. Think about it. "I just beat Cotto, now fight Williams when he beats me again with his advantages?" Margarito is no warrior. A warrior would have accepted Williams' challenge and avenged his loss. VIVA Mexico has no type of reason. Williams is the most feared in the division. Point blank.

actually I heard he took a bath on it because of the guarantees in contracts he had to take for Mayweather, plus a low gate, plus ok PPV sales. His long term goal was to secure Mayweather but even that failed

Regardless, he saw a cut.

that part is a lie flat out. Dan said he would give Arum the promotional rights to the fight. He told me himself

uh Dan was bluffing NOT PWill. PWill wants the rematch period



good fight and PWill's toughest fight IMO (yes even over the first Quintana fight) but PWill is no less a warrior than Tony is stopping saying otherwise


actually PWill is very respectful and pretty down to earth. This is more trying to entice anyone to fight him you know THE SAME tactic Margarito used when he was trying to line up fights


actually I can find him anytime I want to and talk about this. PWill isnt the one driving this and the blame shouldn't be on him at all

the promoters are all pulling the wool over everyone's eyes

Dan's offer never made it past media releases and press conferences nothing ever went to the table with Bob or the team at all.

Arum's excuse that he wont deal with Haymon is more a ploy to keep a portion of the belts safely in Top Rank's coiffers either by having Tony fight Clottey ir wait until Cotto is ready for a rematch

stop ****ting on fighters who beat YOUR fighter man it's looking bitchy at best

i like how viva has no answer for this

[ANDROID_DOES]

That's true, Viva and some other nuthuggers are the reason why it's impossible for me to like Margarito.

Maybe you should stop living on the internet. I find it funny when posters dislike someone because of someone on an internet forum ok so you pretty much wish a fighter would lose so you can go to your little keyboard and talk smack this fan on the internet Do you usually let everyone else make decisions for you?

IDK man at best I heard he broke even on this. From several relaible sources

i was thinking the same thing... since when does the fighter get the check sent to him? it goes to the promotor, and the promotor cuts the fighter his check

That's viva's point that some of the posters here try to throw up that famous "4mil" and play it out like that's exactly what margarito is leaving out of his pocket.

No fighter in the history of the sport has EVER left with the proposed amount in pocket. Where do u think all expenses come from? You have to pay trainers, cornerman fee's, travel expenses, promoter, etc.....

actually when you get to a level where 7 figures is thrown alot of that is covered in the contracts, seperate from the fighters purse especially the sundries such as travel (usually budgeted in a training expense fund), sparring (same), lodging, etc

Im sure you're right, but the promoters cut ALWAYS comes out of the fighter's proposed purse.

I just find it funny how the tables turn with Margarito not making a peep about a Williams fight, yet cries that he's not getting the big payday from Oscar.

One thing you have to understand is everyone wants a fight with dlh. Who hasn't called out dlh????? Who would turn down a fight with dlh??? After the fight with pac was signed margarito eased off. He has never cried about not getting the dlh fight. Up until july 26th dlh was frontin like he wanted to fight the best, he wants a challenge, he wants to beat the best and that, the winner of margarito vs cotto would be the best and that's who he wants to fight. Well it didn't go as planned margarito knocks out cotto. So it should be dlh vs margarito right? according to dlh that was the plan to fight the winner for that fight right? Well poor dlh lying again to the public and was banking on a cotto win. All margarito did was make dlh look like a *****, a liar, and a coward. Never did Margarito think he would get a dlh match. He knew, his team new and bob arum new that margarito vs dlh wouldn't happen. All margarito did was call dlh's bluff!!!!! In fact, in reality by dlh saying he want to fight the best and want's the winner of cotto/margarito wouldn't it be dlh who was calling out cotto and margarito pre july 26th???? Like i said don't say margarito was pursing and crying about dlh all he did was call his bluff.
