over Antonio Margarito for a wise career move then your an
idiot (Don't mean to call you a name) but it is what it is. Look
at what happened to Margarito's career? Why do people still
pull that bum out of their hat when they talk about Floyd? Didn't
I just post FACTS about why the Margarito/Floyd fight didn't happen?
If not, here it is again. For the record Floyd is not my hero, I'm just
not too fond of haters who can't get their facts straight.
Arum said while Mayweather would have taken the $8 million to fight Margarito, he asked for a $10 million guarantee to fight opponents such as Miguel Cotto and Ricky Hatton, when Arum was only willing to guarantee $7 million.
Arum said Mayweather also asked for $20 million to fight De La Hoya, a fight Arum said he wasn't interested in participating in.
"That's not in the cards," Arum said. "He wants $20 million for the De La Hoya fight? It's not there. Sometimes, my man, you gotta know when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em. We'll talk about things down the road."
