I'm watching Margo vs Cotto for the first time in a while. Jim Lampley mentioned that during Margo's ring walk. But I was never familar with that before if that is true.
Did Mosley turn down 8 mill for a fight against Margo

No Floyd was the 1 who turned down the 8 million to fight Margarito. I believe both Shane and Margarito both made 4 million each for their fight.Comment

Yeah you're right after Forrest beat him twice he had a bad run. He then had a NC against Raul Marquez, bad performance against Hoya, lost to Winky 2x. Then he fought Estrada and Cruz to gain his confidence back. Then fought Vargas 2x and the rest has been history.
But as a big Shane fan, his managment does piss me off. As for the Forrest fights I can live with that. That was #1 and #2 fighting. I believe that should always happen. But he turned down 10 mill for a third Hoya fight. 10 mill for a Floyd fight. Instead of Fighting Wright he should have just faced Tito for a lot of money. Wright was just a bad style period. But the cat still deserves a mega fight now. I just don't believe he will get it.Comment

Both Floyd and Mosely turned him down in 2006. Obviously Mosely didn't have any problems taking a fight with Margarito when he was on top though.
Patiently awaiting the return of the Tijuana Tornado.Comment

Lampley said both and I also remember before his fight with Clottey during the preview he said both Floyd and Shane doesn't want to fight me.Comment
