      again, how was it never discussed, when arum offered a multi fight contract to floyd that included a fight with margo, then a fight with cotto and floyd declined?
      That was before Floyd left Top Rank, once Floyd left Top Rank they never again tried to make the fight.

      Please provide proof as I have yet to see any that this fight was ever in any kind of discussion about happening after Floyd left Top Rank.

      All I remember is Arum running his mouth and pretending like they wanted it, which is the ultimate punk move, but I am sure Cotto was not the reason for that punk move and that Cotto would fight but the Harvard man was none to confident in that fight.

        As for the rest that is your opinion, one real championship is worth 1,000 paper belts to me. Even if you think he accomplished more that really doesn't mean he is actually a better fighter, when I view both of them they seem very much the same.
        then why did margo hurt pacquiao with 2 body shots? he wasn't hitting pacquiao there before that happened. why did he stop early an undefeated/champ like kermit twice? someone with "decent" power doesn't do that

        no that isn't my opinion. that's the opinion of the experts, the media, and apparently DLH's. no one rated baldomir above or even near margo (except you)

          LOL 10 years of consistancy vs 1 miricle win. Whats even finnier is that Arturo Gatti of all ***ing people was given a shot at the Ring Title at that stage of his career. Think about it! Arturo ***ing Gatti of all people!

            Because Margarito is tougher than Cintron, Cintron has power but Margarito was able to withstand that and Cintron was not tough enough to deal with Margairito.

            Look at the ranking who was ahead at the time, I am sure Baldomir held the championship slot which you know is the highest slot~

            Like I said they vastly bought into the Arum hype for Margarito (most feared man LOL) and the media always does **** like that which is why anyone with a keen eye should not look to them for all that much except one source.


            If all you know is what the media tells you then you don't know shit

              It was a fight for Baldomir to extend his run, make some cash and increase his visibility. 10 years of what there are like 4 real good wins in there (Clottey, CintronX2 and Cotto) give me the real title over 4 real good wins in ten years.

              The only funny thing about that fight was if Gatti would have won .

                when did i mention that the offers were after floyd left? the offers were proposed after the judah fight, just when floyd decided to leave top rank. arum offered him margo, cotto, AND hatton. yet he declined

                he never showed interest in margo nor cotto. only in hatton and retirement. how convenient

                  that "media" hype includes DLH. do you think DLH was overhyping margo? why would he do that?

                    Floyd wanted to fight Oscar at the time Oscar and Top Rank were in the middle of their mega feud. If Floyd signed that deal he would have been kissing his ticket to the top good bye.

                    All Top Rank guys it is funny that he hasn't had any interest in fighting any, so he just must be scared of guys promoted by Bob Arum.

                    Great reasoning here ace~

                      You mean the ring, Oscar owns the Ring but last I checked he isn't an editor or on the editorial board or even a writer.
