mayorga and margarito were supposed to fight but king was scared and gave mayorga an easy fight against spinks which he lost. margarito wanted a baldomir fight but they matched him soft against gatti so he wouldn't lose to preserve a future floyd fight. what do you call it when zab fights cosme rivera instead of the number 1 welterweight who kept calling him out? what do you call it when spinks fights miguel angel gonzalez or judah 2 times instead of the number 1 welterweight who kept calling him out? and we all know how mayweather would rather fight a journeymen for 8 mill than margarito for 8 mill and judah coming off a loss than the number 1 welterweight.Comment

It dont matter, How was Zab not the best when he held 3 titles out of 4, back then he was #1. Carlos beat him and Margarito fought them both. Dont matter what jrosales says about his little rings ratings research, the public saw judah and carlos as the men Mayweather needed to fight. Miguel Cotto is #4 on rings ratings in present time after getting stopped twice in his last 4 fights, judah was still in the mix even if he got upset.
Rafael Marquez getting beat by israel vasquez in glorious battles is better than corey spinks weak ass reign as welterweight champion or zab judah's great 7-5-1 mark as a welterweight.
It just is.Comment

The Judah fight should not have been an option anymore after he lost to a journeyman.
You know what Floyd should of done fougth Margarito the #1 rank guy and have the champ(Baldomir) fight the #2(Judah) in a rematch and then fight the winner. But, come on really all you guys as Floyd fans want to act like Floyd was not getting flack for fighting Judah. There was a reason why he was getting so much flack, why the boxing establishments didn't want that fight.
I believe the fight was agreed to "in principle" at an earlier date. Yes he copped flack for Judah.....but most of that flack from the media was along the lines of "why not fight the guy that just beat Judah????"Comment

Floyd fans think any fighter Floyd fought was a great fighter. Only great fighter Floyd ever fought was Castillo who beat him and got robbed. Let's be honest, Floyd should have at least 1 loss on his record.Comment

being champion & staying champion is better than being 1# contender for X number of months.
I ****king cant stand it when floyd fans try to turn ok fighters into very good fighters & very good fighters into first ballot hall of fame atg just for the sake of propping up mayweather.
i ****ing hate that **** with a passion.Comment
