Fair enough.I would, Spinks is too small for HW and still beat Holmes. If Antonio Margarito won a paper title at 160 and lost to Pavlik and dropped back down i'd still recognize him as a former Middleweight champion who was fightin out of his best weight.
Tony's best weight, 147 anything below or after that is just extra, Mayweather is a 130 pounder, anything after that is just extra
Mayweather is not a 130 pounder. He couldn't make that weight today.Comment

Dude, you're taking this in another direction.
I understand why people move up.
However, what does that have to do with this.
Thats fine. But if its not his ideal weight, he should have never moved up, called himself the best ever or degraded the best welters in the division without fighting them.
Seriously, how can anyone stand by a guy who says this,
"we're not fighting to prove whos the best"
btw, only groupies care about how much money another man makes.Comment

But on Tuesday, Goossen provided to Yahoo! Sports a copy of a July 31 letter he sent to Top Rank chairman Bob Arum in which he offered Margarito "a minimum guaranteed (sic) of $4 million against 50 percent of net revenues to Top Rank/Margarito."Dude, you're taking this in another direction.

Arum responded in a letter on Aug. 5 rejecting the offer.
Arum wrote: "Thank you for your letter of July 31, 2008 regarding Paul Williams.
"After the terrible experience I was subjected to by Paul Williams, his camp and advisor in connection with a (Kelly) Pavlik fight, I have absolutely no intention whatsoever to be involved in any fight with Mr. Williams.
"Accordingly, your proposal is in all respects rejected and I would request that you do no contact me again regarding Mr. Williams."

Why not talk **** bout Floyd when instead of fighting the top fighters he chose to fight good enough fighters!! he foughtwhich was the end of his career..did they just start watching boxing???is that the only way they have to hate in floyd??he was at 147 for 2 years really 1 1/2 and boxed 10!!!!!but all people can bring up is margo,cotto and williams..what a ******** joke......its discusting how you can seriously say a 5'6 fighter who started at 130 is ducking margo-5'11 and williams-6'2-6'4-2 fighters who weight 160 on fight night...but hey let the haters hate
gotti,he was washed up by then!!carlos baldomir??he got there for beating Judah,judah ? hes a clown no real threath.now why not fight with Margarito,Cotto,williams,Mosley,Clottey,Cintron,Be rto,Collazo,Quintana,now these guys were top shelves so why not pick one if u think your the best??? Fear of facing the best was Floyds problem!!! oh by the way the hell with bein 5'6" no one ask him to be in that division so deal with the consequenses but Floyd is a puss so didnt deal with them he retired liked a chump!!!Last edited by yeykax; 03-07-2009, 02:52 PM.Comment
