    the american fans are the most important fans,why does everyone complain about calzaghe not fighting in america he has a big following in whales and i'm pretty sure he could sell out in whales no problem, outside of mexicans no one really knows margarito the casual fan does not know margarito

      Quit living in the year 2000 please. Mosley is not a factor anymore at 37 he's just wanting to make one last paycheck. His fight against mayorga was un-impressive to say the least and by the tone of his voice after the fight he himself knows it's time to hang em up. If shane thinks he deserves more or half of the money for a margarito fight, then shane needs to get off the steriods because it's making his head big. Lets see shane:

      You just had your fight with mayorga moved from one date to another because HBO knew you couldnt compete with a card on showtime. Not only that they changed the card from ppv to free hbo because they knew it wouldn't sell. They figured this fight wouldn't sell in vegas so the best hope is to put the old guy in front of his home crowd in Los Angeles and draws a reported crowd of 5,000 fans and people there said it was about 3,500 Including Earner who covered the fight for boxingscene, and maxboxing. So in your hometown Mr. big name shane against a very exciting fighter in mayorga you bring 3,500 people to watch the fight. Yes the same mayorga that is a household name that people like to see fight. The same mayorga that brought over 500k ppv buys in each fight against dlh and tito. And yes shane the same mayorga that vargas was able to get a ppv date with and sell 300k ppv's!! yet only 3,500 come to watch mayorga fight YOU free on HBO???

      Lets rewind to over a year ago when the lesser known Margarito faces a still relatively unknown paul williams who at the time NO ONE BUT hard core BOXING FANS KNEW WHO HE WAS and still is not a good sell. AT THE SAME VENUE MARGARITO BRINGS A RECORD 8,000+ FANS!!! How do you explain that? Now since that fight he's fought at madison square garden, Atlantic city, and The MGM Grand Capturing Two world Championships in the process and Knocking out the undefeated welterweight champion of the world in a fight that many say saved boxing that can be argued as the fight of the year and does 400k plus ppv's in a struggling economy.

      and mosley is the better draw? "peeleft:
      Yo that's what im saying...while everyone here is busy calling Margo a ***** or wut not...im saying kat knows he is right smack in the middle of his 15 min...he gotta squeeze out every last drop he can to secure his future...cuz you are only the "darling of the crowd" until you get caught and droped...(unless your DLH) but if he feels he can get more money else where or get more money out of SSM then so be it...

NOTHING!!! beating him would turn into oh shane was old tired talk around here. Shane turned down a fight with margarito when shane actually mattered. Arum offered margarito to floyd, shane, and winky and margarito to get a shot with them was willing to take home the smaller piece of the pie just to get his shot at a big fight. he offered floyd 90/10 split! No way margarito is going to let himself get short changed anymore there's no reason for it anymore. It's a pride thing, i'd take less money in a different fight then get lowballed and get an unfair share by somebody and gbp are well known for beign the greedy guys they are.
        how is he gettin low balled if it's 50/50
        margarito's career was almost over after his lost to williams but now all of a sudden he deserves more money than everyone else. if margarito loses another fight it might be the end of his career where as no matter what happenes to shane he will still be a hall of famer win or lose

          are you really that biased. The more you try to hype mosley up the more my original post shuts down you biased opinions. Did you not ready my first post? Please read it and the reality of it and then say mosley is a bigger draw than margarito. Why was shane vs mayorga free on hbo and Vargas vs Mayorga did 300k ppv buys. don't 'american fans' know shane more than vargas? Didn't shane ko vargas? why was vargas able to do 300k ppv buys at the staples center against mayorga and shane fought mayorga free in a much smaller venue that wasn't even close to selling out? Why did margarito bring a record crown against a no name williams when he fought in the same venue? please if your going to avoid the reality and facts of the situation and just post your biased opinions which can be easily shot down then just save your hate and the time and relax.

              As I have told Pelon before, I'm sure Margarito gives a **** about what we think of him on this forum. The fact is, YOU guys are the ones talking about discrediting a Margarito victory over Mosley. Spin this **** anyway you want. It is NOT a good look for Margarito. Throw out all the PPV, and attendance figures you want. Who pulled out of the fight? And LOL at "Pride" having anything to do with with this. It's about dinero....

                    The Latino market IS part of the American fanbase. You realize Latinos make up 15% or so of the US population (45 million)? As far as boxing fans in this country, Latinos make up a very large portion any way you look at it.

                    In many markets, like LA or LV, a strong Latino interest in a fight can make or break a successful gate.
