    He bought out his contract to avoid him.
    Uncle bob says otherwise.

      Sometimes I wish Floyd was still under the toprank banner. Otherwise we would have

      Floyd vs cotto
      Floyd vs marg
      And Floyd vs pacq
      When people say stuff like this, is when I start questioning their knowledge.

      Don't get the criticism? It's because Baldomir couldn't hold Margarito jockstrap.

      Floyd could very well won this fight. But, it wouldn't be as easy as the F'ing Baldomir match.

        Pressure, workrate and chin. You need more than just " pop on your punches " to get Margarito off of you. Tony would just walk thru all of floyd's punches and make floyd fight like he's never before. People act like they don't see that happening. Think Calderon-Segura, Rios-Acosta. I'm not comparing the fighters just the styles and the similarities.

            Marg might have been "garbage" but still levels above Baldomir.

            You should have really been paying attention to the WW class for the last 10 years.

            Baldo couldn't hold Marg jockstrap.

              Floyd's legs would allow him to beat Margarito circa 2006/7 but make no mistake about it - he'd be in hell for all 12 rounds and would have to win a tight, ugly fight.

                  I take it some one didn't see the first Floyd vs Jose Luis castillo match?

                    If Floyd WANTED to fight Margarito.

                    He would have done so and I believed Floyd can potshot him to UD.

                    I was waiting for this because I was gonna bet.

                    But he claimed he injured his hand agains Judah and he won't be ready by August.

                    Then brought his contract out

                    Then fought Baldomir

                    and he made all excuses on why he's not fightinh Margarito

                    and promised he will fight him

                    history repeat itself

                    here comes cotto

                    here comes pacquiao

                    here comes excuses

                      I agree.

                      And, it doesn't bother me when people say Floyd would win. Because, I agree with that. What bothers me is when people say that it would be just like Baldomir or as easy as the Baldomir fight. It kind of proves to me that they weren't watching boxing back then. When people make comments like that.
