    Real answer:

    Business decision. Simple case of risk vs reward.

      The point is not abc Larry its the fact Foreman was legit and they openly ducked him and then to do what they did with Margo and then claim another division title ,,,,, man that is screwed up its a joke , and these fools go on about legacy , when they really start to scrutinize his rise in the weights it will all be pulled apart because its not legit and history will see that , history is not a fanboy .

        So why make the statement that he's "too tall" and then fight Margarito who is the same height?

              Freddie and Manny were kicking themselves after realizing Yuri was operating on damaged ball joints.

              Freddie: "Damn, Manny! Yuri made Cotto look like a ring genius in there. I told you we should've taken that fight!"

              Manny: "STFU, Fred! You insisted on me not facing him cause he was too tall! I could've fought Shane back in the day and you ruined that too, you four eyed rack of lamb!"

                  You're right. Manny never had the balls to face the great Yuri Forman. He looked way to impressive and was undefeated at the time.

                  You really opened my eyes and exposed Manny this time, thanks mate!

                      c'mon... do you ****ers really wanna see a tall lanky jr MW run from a small WW? wasn't mosley running from pac enough for you mofos?
