    How does Margarito Make 4million fighting P.Williams?

    Economics 101


    Paul Williams drew about 2000 people to his last fight in Nowhere california(Most were there to see Arreola). He's never headlined an actual PPV event and his rumored fight with Winky will be a snoozer and should draw maybe 4thousand people at most. His two fights with Quintana were held in small clubs which again drew about 2000 people.

    Antonio margarito while finding new found fame after beating Cotto is still a good ways away from selling out an arena on his own and at his peak before cotto sold out a tennis stadium with Williams (woopty freaking dooo).


    So tell me where in the hell is this fight gonna generate 4million$ for Margarito?

    Tony would get 4million if he fought De La Hoya so how can any promoter with a straight face say they are gonna get Tony 4million for fighting P. Williams?

    Does Gossen have a money tree in his backyad?

    Will Tony have the Tijuana Cartel take Arum Hostage and demand Tony get payed 4million for his fight with P. Williams?

    Is Gossen gonna pay Margarito in Monopoly Money?

    The truth is this was not a serious offer folks!!!! Gossen knew Arum would reject this offer because he stands to make zero profit off this fight. Now Gossen can pull an Arum and will now market his fighter as the most feared in boxing when the truth is this is no diffrent than what Arum did with Margarito to floyd 3 years ago.

    So the bottom line is Wiliams will fight Margarito when Paul grows a ****ing personality, grows a following(Yeah right), or is the only challange left in the division. Accept it because when comes to boxing the name of the game sure as **** isn't pugilism. It's ****ing money!!!!!

          The 4 million was guaranteed, doesn't matter how Williams draw power. How on earth did they offer Mayweather 8 million when Margarito was a nobody then. If the offer was fake why did Arum went out of his way and write a letter
          The letter was posted on Yahoo, if fake they would have been sued

            Yes it was guerenteed but again that was the point! Gossen knew Arum would reject it because Arum would lose money if he took the fight. Again you keep thinking that Margarito rejected the fight when in fact it was Arum smart guy. 8 million with floyd is very diffrent because floyd is still 3 times more popular than Tony and more importantly Floyd is his own ****ing promoter. He has to put up money for fights himself so yeah he offered 8 million but how much of his own money was he gonna have to put into his own promotion of the fight?????????????


            If you really think World Class fighters are afraid of each other than you should really start watching a diffrent sport.

              Arum would inform Margarito about the offer. Are you saying Margarito has no acknowledgment of the offer? Because they would say pretty ****** now wouldn’t.

                    It is just wayyyyyyyyy too ****ing ironic for me to hear Margarito fans talking about opponents not being able to draw enough opponents to be able to guarantee the amount of money that is offered...

                    ****ing... hypocrites...
