If Miguel Cotto was a GBP fighter....

[SCEN3RY]

I've heard a ton of stories as to why this fight didn't happen...apparently there were too many reasons for it not to happen - they should've fought, but they didn't. GB has nothing to do with it, if the 2 fighters wanted to fight, they would have.

For the first half of 06 Baldomir fight was more of an interest than the Judah fight. People wanted to see that fight more then the Judah at that time for April of 06.

Margarito for the 2nd half of 06 was more interest and a fight that the fans wanted to see more so than the Baldomir fight AT THAT TIME of November of 06.

You can say I am looking bias all you want. I could careless cuz you looking the same to me with you bias ways against Marg and in favor of Floyd.

But, again you haven't refute anything that I have said.

Hang on a sec why was the margarito fight more interesting then Baldomir fight later in 06? cause of his great win vs Gomez?

First of all Margarito was the best WW at that time. Had the longest title reign at that time. Margarito had the best WW resume at that time more so anybody, was 5-0 against WW top 10. So stop with that whole act as if Margarito was a nobody. Maybe a nobody to YOU but not a nobody to hardcore fans.

Judah while thee champ of the division refuse to fight Marg. Judah who always was willing to fight the best straight out said he did not wanted to fight Margarito.

Lets go with time frames.

Before 06, Judah-Floyd was the fight that EVERYBODY wanted to see at WW. When Judah lost that fight lost interest in every way. They even try to sell it as a bogus title fight(Just like Pac-Margarito but without the catchweight) because Baldo didn't pay a sanctioning fee.

how was margarito the best ww when at that point he had never beat a boxer wit a name?the closes thing to a name boxer was a prospect in cintron.margarito beat lewis but about a year or 2 after mayorga did and why is it that margarito had never fought shane,oscar,forrest,mayorga,spinks or judah?if he would of beat 1 of those fighters than maybe you would have a better argument but he didn't and baldomir did

Cotto hasnt ducked nobody, hes a true fighter. Bring on 2011

the most correct post in this entire thread

Cotto will indeed fight anyone with little to no issue

respect should go out to him by everyone

Have you thought that both Judah and Baldomir is overrated? That their not the same level as they should be? At the end of the day Baldomir was just a level above journeyman.

Baldomir was a tough dude, but he lacked punching power. Judah is weak minded and tends to fold under pressure, besides all that, I see both of them as good opponents for Mayweather to face at the time. To me, it's always been about what Mayweather SHOULD have done after Hatton, atleast to me.

Man, 375K PPV buys (If I remember correctly). Come on now...

If I am not mistaken the Pac-Morales 3rd fight did over 300k and they did it at a weight-class that is not historically rich on PPV like WW is.

That doesn't mean that Pac-Morales III had any interest, or was a necessary fight.

[MOTHER DUCKER]

It was an arguable lost to Diaz. And, Judah didn't beat anybody of note after Floyd either so what is your point?

Matter of fact if you look at Judah record at 147 is not all that impressive.

Like I said, it was just as legit.

The guy was talking about Baldo vs Mayweather being legit though which it was far more so then Morales/Pac 3

Yes cuz of his destruction of Gomez that is why.

Maybe he was somebody to hardcore Top Rank fans.

And Lol @ Margarito being more of an interest than Baldomir when Baldomir had a 20 fight win streak during 1999-2006 and people were calling him a legit threat to Mayweather and that he was going to KTFO Floyd. That Margarito bull**** started as soon after Mayweather beat Judah and bought his contract out with Top Rank to chase bigger pay days. Only "hardcore fans"[or hardcore Floyd haters] believe that dumb ass smear campaign.

I was actually taking about Floyd-Judah not Floyd Baldomir.
