      I think Margarito has, as he hasn't lost at welterweight yet. The winner of Cintron-Margarito deserves a shot. But Judah simply hasn't been fighting the right contendors.

        As a fighter he almost knocked out the undisputed champion of the division, in a close fight. The bout deserves a rematch and if the IBF, WBC and WBA have no problem with it then obviously they all feel the rematch is warranted.

            He can come back down, he would be well abvised to in my opinion.

              Spinks Wants Tszyu, Tszyu Wants Spinks!

              November 16, 2004 - On August 23, 2004, ********** was the first to report whispers of a potential showdown between undisputed welterweight champion Cory Spinks and junior welterweight king Kostya Tszyu. In a free exclusive video interview with Cory Spinks, Spinks expressed his desire to face Tszyu in his next fight, provided that Tszyu took care of business with Mitchell (which he emphatically did). In another free exclusive video interivew with Cory's trainer Kevin Cunningham, Cunningham reaffirmed the fact that Tszyu indeed was the next big fight they were hoping for. And with quotes like "I'm wishing I could get the fight with Tszyu" and "you know I want that Tszyu fight more than anything", taken from our August 26th T.N.T. chat session with the undisputed welterweight champion, it should come as no surprise to ********** readers that Kostya Tszyu is definitely the opponent that Spinks is hoping to face next. According to a recent article at foxsportsnews.com, the feeling is mutual from the Tszyu camp. Tszyu is reportedly rejecting multi-million dollar offers in hopes of facing Spinks, including a $10.7 million two-fight deal from Murad Muhammad to face Arturo Gatti and Floyd Mayweather Jr.

                You know, Jameel McCline almost knocked out Chris Byrd, you want to see that one again? Does Jameel deserve a second shot?

                  That article is not accurate, Don King himself confirmed on the pay per view Saturday that Cory and Judah are facing eachother. Bob Arum himself said that he will never match Mayweather with Tszyu, he said there is not enough money in the fight and he would gladly match Cotto with Tszyu. There are no multimillion dollar offers on the table to make a fight with either Gatti or Mayweather, anyone that reads this site on the daily knows a Gatti-Tszyu fight is never happening and Arum already said no to Floyd-Kostya.

                    Totally different fight where the champion Byrd finished the second half of the fight strong as with Spinks-Judah, Judah, the challenger, finished the second half of the fight strong.
