    I was mad that he fought Judah too.

    That fight was a farce after Judah was exposed again.

      Elite fighters don't lose to Baldomir and don't fight in front of 3000 people in a ballroom.

      Iole's a ****** ****head as usual.

              Not true. Duran and leonard lost to bums. Ali lost to spinks!

                All three guys Judah,Hatton and Baldomir were all actually the top guys in a division~

                Margarito really is not all that much different then Baldmor except that Baldomir is actually a tough guy not a fake tough guy like Margarito~
                Margarito was a 3 time champ, fought every hard guy in the division and was a top 5 WW for 9 straight years.

                Baldomir ain't **** compared to Margarito.

                You're from Michigan, so I'll give you a pass for your blatant nuthuggery.

                  Clottey could not even beat up Shammone Alvarez badly~




                  Born to lose to fighters that are above him, that is Clottey's role in the sport~

                    because you're obviously looking for an arguement. saying mayweather deserves no credit for beating marquez is beyond idiotic.

                      Juan Manuel Marquez lost his first pro fight.

                      Is he not elite?
