Who cares about your timetable, what makes it accurate. Margarito wanted the rematch and Williams refused because he tought he can cash in on his win.Comment

1. Point to one thing that you feel is inacurate in that timetable.what I meant is that you didn't give any sources.
I can just make a thread with bull**** claims to make it seem like I'm right.. unless I back it up what I have posted has NO merit.
and why would he do that after Williams avoided him, he had Cotto right in his sights by that time.
but if it helps you sleep at night the think whatever you like.. wlad is ducking Williams too
2. He did not fight Cotto when he was WBO mandatory and went on to fight Golden Johnson. He did not fight Cotto when he was WBO mandatory but chose to fight a guy he already beat in Cintron.
3. I'm sleeping like a baby. Thanks for you concern.Last edited by Vladimir303; 12-02-2008, 03:29 PM.Comment

It's accurate, did Margarito not say that he won the fight and a rematch was not necessary? I dare you to dispute that.
How can a WBO champion (Williams) refuse a WBO mandatory (Margarito) to cash in on his own?
Answer me that, thanks in advance.Last edited by Vladimir303; 12-02-2008, 03:32 PM.Comment

.....before Margarito defeated Cotto. Not true.
Here is a timetable of how things went down following the Margarito-Williams fight:
1. Margarito said that a rematch wasn't necessary because he thought he beat Williams.
2. A few weeks later, Margarito changed his tune and subliminally admitted that he lost the fight saying that he didn't start out busy enough and that he will start workin' earlier next time.
3. He then took that new game plan and took it out on world beater Glen Johnson even though he was Williams's WBO mandatory and could've enforced his position at anytime.
4. He then completely abonded his WBO mandatory spot and went after the IBF title against a guy he already defeated and made cry the first time around. Williams made a optional defense against Quintana and lost but got his title back with a first round Ko. You know, actually avenging his loss...something Tijuana does not do.
5. During the Margarito/Cintron post-fight interview, he didn't mention Williams and called out Cotto saying, "he must fight me".
6. After beating Cotto, Goosen made a 4million dollar offer to him and The 8 Million Dollar Man turned it down and now accepted a less risky fight for half as much money, 2mill.
CONCULSION: Mayweather turning down 8mill to fight Margarito, for a less risky fight for the linear title and still making 8mill and going on to fight for 20 mill in The World Awaits = Good Business Decision. Margarito turning down 4mill for a 2million dollar fight = Bad business decision.
The Difference: Mayweather COULD'VE beaten Margarito but chose the bigger money, less risky fights. And Margarito CANNOT beat Williams and therefore chose the less risky fights for less money.
Wait a minute, I guess that means that Margarito actually did make a good business decision. . Scratch out the above in blue font.

Wasn't obligated to fight his mandatory? A mandatory position means = a guaranteed title shot unless the challanger does not want to enforce that position. You know...kinda like when Williams used his mandatory spot to force Margarito to fight him.
OR
The champion is willing to vacate his title and therefore the mandatory can still fight for the vacat belt.
Now which one of the two is more likely? I think the answer is obvious.Comment

Marg wanted his rematch, and I won't call Pwill right or wrong for not doin it since his reason for not doin so was to unify wit Cintron. It didn't work out that way, but now the script has been flipped. I wanna see Marg-Pwill 2 more than any other fight, but I don't blame Marg for fightin SSM first. I'm sure Marg will win, but even past his prime SSM is still a respectable opponent. It's the Cotto rematch I could do without, but as long as the Pwill fight happens after that, cool. If not, no defendin Marg on the subject.Comment
