      yup and the logic of a pac fan is that it is absolutely ok to fight for a vacant title at a catchweight against someone that doesnt even deserve a shot (not because he is a cheater but because he has not beaten anyone significant to earn that shot
      neither one has
      oh the logic of Pac fans

        PACQUIAO is FOTD and p4p number 1,when he moves up he can fight for anything he wants and MARGARITO is TOP 10 LMW on everyone s rankings,even boxrec put him on number 3 spot so WBC vacant belt makes all the sense in the world!

          How much did Floyd get paid to fight Baldo instead of Margacheato?

              Margarito at the time was not a bigger challenge than Baldomir. Baldomir was the linear champ and Floyd was actually critised before his fight with Judah for not fighting Baldomir.

                Floyd ducked Margs. By doing that, he dodged a bullet. Margs could have pounded him to the ground with his special cement wraps.

                  When did Floyd say Williams is too tall?

                      And we all know that he didnt get half of 8 million for Mitchell fight!
                      You really are ****ing ******ed aren't you? When the Margarito negotiations took place, he opted to fight Baldomir, not Mitchell. (Dumbass!) Were you even watching boxing back then? Probably not. So STFU, and quit talking when you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. He fought Baldomir, and got $8million, plus the lineal WW championship. You are a ****ing Floyd hater, and should be banned from ALL boxing forums for complete lack of objectivity. Spare us your idiocy.
