oh stop it...afro american comm???no way...thats bull. you go to espn after the judah fight, see who they were talkin about floyd fighting. are they the afro american community??? you, my friend are just wrong about this. sure margs may have had more fame on the westcoast. but thats only one part of the country. you go back to that time period, what was it 03??? see if you can find anything on tape or in newspapers calling for a marg/floyd fight.
Carlos Baldomir + Zab Judah were the #1+#2 WW's when floyd beat them

Who are the people from the West Coast?
Do you even know Margarito PPV numbers at that time?
He didn't even a career defining win
Yet somehow Hardcore fans were calling him to fight Margarito. Even Brian Kenny told him to fight a real WW like BaldomirComment

Why dont you remember rankings for April 2007 140lbs? Just admit that in all the Floyd arguments you have had you had to do some research for ring ratings on Floyds fights vs Zab and Carlos. Dont act like you remember ratings for each month of 2006. I cant even remember ratings for this same month last year. But if you followed floyd back then you know that there was one fight the people wanted and that was against the best welterweight in the world. No one was saying Margarito was the best and no one cared about him he was fighting on ESPN, no matter how many bum mandatories he beat. WBA, IBF, WBC, RING welterweight belts>>>>7 bum mandatories. Carlos upset Zab when people thought they were going to get Zab vs Mayweather next, Mayweather fought both of them.Comment

Fact is really not everybody was clamoring for that fight anymore when Zab lost to Baldomir. I was eager to see that fight but when Zab lost it proved he could not beat Floyd. It proved he was mental midget and very incosistent. It should of been a great win for Floyd but Zab loosing to a journeyman took that great win away.Comment

Do not make **** up that fight was not signed, it was agreed but it was not signed. That is why after Judah lost they went back to the negotiation table and Judah got a smaller cut. Floyd could of fought somebody else. There was nothing signed just agreed upon if both fighters would of won there imterim bouts. Floyd beat Mitchell and Zab lost to Baldomir.Comment

03? where are you getting this from? It was 06... Yes or No before the Judah fight was Floyd taking flack from the boxing communito for fighting Judah?
