Margarito Turns Down Mosley, Schaefer Blasts Tony

[Ryn0]

Margs is doing the same thing he moaned for years about being on the recieving end of, he says he was ducked a dodged by Mayweather which Mayweather said was due to money issues now he doing the same to other fighters and he's not as big a name as Mayweather

He was offered $4 against Williams $2 against Mosely who else is there Clottey and Berto now Berto isn't going to fight him so it all hangs on Clottey if he faces a bum then he's a hypocrit.

[IMDAZED]

I wonder what Arum has in mind and the role Cotto plays here....

Margarito was the #1ranked WW under the RIng champ when those offeres made...SSM isnt offering a career Pay day.. Margo made 1.5 against Cotto plus PPv rev. the fight w/Mosley was going to be on HBO.W/NO ppv rev.

Also Marg was offering a 90/10 split in order for Floyd to get his 8 mil..

SSM hasnt won a fight at WW since Collazo...he isnt the #1 guy...he is way past his prime jumping up and down in weight for money fights.

Big Difference in what the significance of Marg/Floyd was compared to Marg/Mosley as of now.

Molsy was also marg's Mando way back when and openly turned down the fight.

Cotto and Vargas both made way more then 2 mil to figth Shane..why should Marg except anything less then what they were offered, When guy s lIke Dela are makien 20-30mil to fight Pac-man..

wake up.. You cant duck a guy that hasnt done a thing to earn a fight w/you...

[PHX PLAYMAKER]

Why are so many idiots shocked about Rito turning down Mosley? He wouldn't have received any credit for battering a 40 yr old way past his prime Mosley. And 2 million is an insult at this point in his career.

[KingTito]

He should've just taken the fight, but if he wants more money, then I'm no one to argue against it. I was looking forward to the fight though.

What about Williams then $4 million on the table, he already beat Margarito once he's argueably the top guy at Welter he's turned down both fights with Williams and Margarito who else is there?

Clottey and that's it Berto won't get in the ring with him Cotto is fighting Jennings, Williams is now fighting Philips so unless he takeso n Clottey or Mosely then he's ducking one of them.

[MELLY-MEL...]

not really sure why it's such a big deal that he turns shane down? ssm is old, has no strap, or status making him a must fight opponent. tony does not need ssm at this point. plus if they were serious they would have came with far more than 2 million.

[roundingace]

He's unhappy with $2 million, then he should have fought Williams for the $4 million. Come on. The man who kept saying he's been ducked and most feared is now doing the same thing that he criticized others for doing.

I agree, the hypocricy is laughable.

[goldenglove2]

I agree, the hypocricy is laughable.

he wasnt getting 4 milion, Bob Arum and co was offered it, to produce Tony...

the fact that you cant comprehend that is laughable.

Team margarito have already talked about williams. It's not about the money, plus that 4mill is the offer to bob arum for a margarito fight it's not what margarito would make plus that offer was NEVER and official offers sent to toprank it's just another publicity stunt by goosen to lure margarito into a fight. margarito wanted an immediate rematch with williams after their first fight. They even went as far as to petition and get the wbo to have margarito placed as paul williams mandatory which would set up the rematch. The wbo told paul margarito is the mando and an immediate re-match is there, but they decided they wanted to leave margarito hanging after a close victory and fight quintana instead. That right there is why Team margarito has said screw williams he ran from the immediate re-match and now that margarito is on top now they want to desperately fight him. He can wait and he screwed his ownself over.
