I know he looked at wen, they took blood from pacquaio from 2 days before the first morales fight and he said it weakend him, and try to make a contract when they could do the same again. That was him trying to get out of the fight. They should have come to agreement no blood can be taken anytime randomly but not the 7 days up to the fight however can take it after the fight.
Random is random study up..Comment

Margarito was unlucky, There was too many names out there at the time for Mayweather to fight and most of them brought more money/name and less risk than Margarito.
But Mayweather retiring when he did was a bad move for him boxing-wise, Maybe it was great for him body-wise because he had time to relax and recover from training,spar and fighting for over 20 years but the time he retired was the time people like Margarito and cotto became household names and the time they deserve to fight Mayweather.Comment

His exact words were:
"I'll fight you down the road when its a bigger and better fight..I make smart business decisons you should get like me"
Margarito proceeds to lose to a prospect named Paul Williams.
So much for that.Comment

Did you see Pac Team say no to drug test and we fight the great Yuri , maybe you should believe because is happen , you see this yes ?
Maybe you see no comment from any true connection to Floyd about M Hatton , you see or no see ?
Me think your eyes see only locked brain focus , if good for Floyd you no see if bad for Floyd you see bigger , yes ?

First of all Margarito would of been a "bigger and better" fight than Baldomir. Lets not play dumb here. Yes Baldomir was the lineal champ. But, Margarito was the better fighter and with a bigger fan base.
Also lets not act like When fought P-Will that he was in line to fight Floyd. Because, that is absolutely not true. Margarito was suppose to fight Cotto. But, if he did the WBO was going to strip if he didn't fight the mandatory in P-Will. He worked hard for that belt and didn't want to get stripped. So he fought P-Will. And, then he was going to fight Cotto. In the mean time Cotto fought Judah. Remember this was 2007. The year that Floyd retired.
So it does not mean that if even Margarito would of won Floyd was going to fight him at all. He never had any plans the whole "bigger and better" was just bull**** he was never going to fight. Lets not forget that when Margarito signed to fight P-Will. Floyd was retired. Mayweather retired after the Oscar fight. People forget that. And, then he comes out of retirement to fight Hatton. And, then retires after Hatton again.
If he was serious that he would of faced Margarito when it was "bigger and better" then he would of fought him right after Margarito fought Cotto. He would of came out of retirement to fight him. But, he didn't which means he was never serious about fighting him.
So I don't care what they say about Mosley they have to prove it to me first. They have played this game before about "yea we fight him" but nothing even happens. A lot of people believe the hype. But, this man is all about money. And, he will not risk a potential payday against Pac in September fighting Mosley.Comment

Margarito was always had the West Coast fan base. But, he was unlucky in a sense that whole Mexican and cult hardcore boxin fan base only in California he had it. After he beat Cotto. That is when he had a became a huge fighter to all Mexicans.

It really sucks that Margarito didn't get a fight with Floyd. He was a top WW for a few years. And, we could of seen what problems Margarito size, strength, pressure, and volume punching would of gave to Floyd if any at all.
All I know is that I really wanted to see that fight. I wanted to see that more than Floyd-Judah, more than Floyd-Mitchell, more than Floyd-Baldomir, more than Floyd-Oscar, more than Floyd-JMM. I really really wanted to see that fight. And, it honestly upsets me that I didn't get to.Comment
