Floyd turned down $8million to fight margarito in 2006

[Ray*]

Funny how when it's Zab's mandatory he HAS to fight him but the longest-reigning champ should've given up his title--even though that was the only card he held.

I dont make the rules in boxing, I watch it and go by whatever rules has been set, And according to boxing rules Judah either has to fight Baldomir or give up his belts and he choose to defend his belts against his mandatory..

Williams also had to give up his belt because he couldnt get lucrative fights, But if Margarito chose to keep his then thats is own business, No-one is obligated to fight you unless you're mandated to or unless the big TV guys want the fight and are willing to put the money down.

U think Marg is the reason that sold out and u call someone else an idiot?

Let me guess, Shane brought 10k people to see him at Staples right???

Margs WAS the reason it sold out.

It would've been nice if Floyd fought Margarito but I don't think it was too realistic. What pisses me off though is when these fights became feasible, he retired. Whatever, I'm not mad at him.

However, to pretend as if Margarito fought garbage comp is ridiculous (not specifically pointing at u). He fought everyone no one wanted to fight because no one wanted to fight him! Cintron, Williams, Clottey, etc. He fought whoever he could.

It seems odd that no one wanted to fight him, considering getting fights he signed fights with top welterweights like Clottey, Cotto, Williams and Mosley.

He called everyone out. But I guess you have to be 2 divisions lower for Floyd to hear.

So Margarito called everyone out but Floyd should be the only one to take the heat?

And I only remember him mentioning Floyd...Margarito knew he would get attention calling out the top dog...

[Easy-E]

You said nothing relevant to my post. Consider the favor returned. No run along and dance over your so-called internet victory.

My comments about Margarito's resume were directly related to you post.
You then responded with, Sure, kid.
Way to contradict yourself.

When has Floyd fought somebody 2 weight divisions lower???????????????????????????

Tony fought Golden Johnson.. lightweight...what about that.?



Tony didn't call-out Forrest or Spinks...and if he did SO WHAT?

He didn't bring **** to the table.

All that scab had to do was DUMP THE WBO TITLE AND BECOME RANKED...but he CHOSE to hide in WBO land like Joe Calzhage.

He mentioned Mayorga, Judah & even went up to Floyd's face and punked him out.

He fought Oscar De La Hoya...what's wrong with that? Margarito had lost his title and was busy fighting Golden Johnson and Cintron who he had already beat before...

I know. I addressed that already. Marg's mandate to fight him was there after Baldo, but gone when Pwill UD'd him. but by the time DLH and Hatton were finished, Marg had smoked Cintron and Cotto in a 3 month span to take over the WW division. Mr boat buyer wasn't gettin the $ he wanted for the DLH rematch, so he was stuck wit no choice but to fight the winner of the upcomin Cotto-Marg fight...or retire. And he retired.

Easy-E: NOW you're talking boxing!

Clottey was a guy no one wanted to fight. Making a fight with him was easy.

Same for Williams...****, no one still wants to fight Williams! So those are two guys Margarito fought who no one else would. And that's why he took those fights. Same with Cintron, who was seen as the future of 147 before Margarito dismantled him.

However, the win over Cotto made him viable and thus, he could get fights.

Remember, being too good isn't why people avoid you. Being too good and not bringing in enough money is why.

I can not see in any way how Margarito could of beat Mayweather if they actually did fight back then... No way he would of beat Floyd
