    Its easy to talk this way about him after losing to Mosley but people weren't saying this stuff before that.
    There was a time when Margarito was way too overhyped, I have't forgotten and like you (No offense) they made that BAD comparison between him and JLC, when JLC was clearly an overall better fighter. Listen, Margarito is notoriously known for his pressure and truth is, he would have never caught up to Mayweather to aply it.

      In 2005 he challenged Mosley, De La Hoya @ 147 and Tszyu at 140. None of them answered to the call so instead he fought Gatti for the WBC 140 title. While Mosley fought two wack-ass 147 pounders(Some Estrada guy and another bum). Mayweather did indeed call him out from JWW but he was issuing the challenge for 147 pound bout. (See my thread of the Mayweather-Bruseles post-fight interview video)

        Exactly. Remember when the same posters were saying that Baldomir is a true WW threat? and is the biggest opponent Floyd has fought? and Floyd won't handle his pressure?...And then after the fight, Baldomir ******?

        You gotta let them talk, they start believing themselves after a while. But when the opposite happens they start acting like they knew all along that Floyd would win and that Floyd just cherry-picked that opponent. It's amusing to me.
