        The point I was making is Oscar is the bigger name and gets bigger cut, Margarito isn't a bigger name and shouldn't get a bigger cu t

                Besides it would be a career high pay day, for a guy who is supposed to be a huge star? Kinda shows you how fair it is.
                shane's great career was at 135 did you know that? Tell me his accomplishments since moving up from 135. A controversal win(which he lost) over dlh 15 years ago? collazo? mayorga? fat vargas? estrada(on margarito's ppv undercard lmao)

                  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:

                    Seriously guys think about it from his viewpoint and top ranks. He is getting ****ed over with a 50-50 split, even if its a career high payday. In my opinion this fight should have never been talked about since i personally think Margarito will stop Mosley into retirement but that is just me.
                    Mosley is the name and the bonafide HOFer... Margarito is mexican.

                    I think at 50/50 split is justified.
