    Everyone knows Margarito was the man back then.


    Forrest screwed everything up by losing to Mayorga.
    Margarito was "The Man" for exactly 6 months before getting knocked out.

    You've got to be kidding, right?

    Carlos Baldomir was champion LONGER than Margarito was!

      Apparently you are clueless of how long Margarito was running the WBO.


      5 championships fights to Baldomir's 1 and 1 good fight before that. That was it for Baldy.

        Who didn't think Margarito wasn't better than Baldomir back then.

        No one.

        And let's not pretend lineal wasn't bs back then.

        Baldomir got it cuz Judah fell asleep. The same Judah who took two tries to beat Spinks who beat Mayorga who beat Forrest.

        Lineal was nothing back then. Everybody knew it.

        The whole thing didn't come off because of Floyd and Arum's hate for each other. It wasn't even about lineal.
        You make a good argument.

        Fortunately for Margarito, he destroyed his own credibility when he was caught with plaster. We don't know how long he's been at it. Logic says it probably wasn't only 1 fight.

          Thing is hindsight is 20/20.

          We don't know we will never know. Floyd didn't know then. Nobody did.

          Yes, Floyd could have beaten Margs. But he didn't want it. I think it was to spite Arum more than anything,

          This lineal stuff (cuz lineal was bs back then) was just an excuse for Floyd to stick it to Bob.

            Margarito was the man back then ,according to who?The Media who overhyped him?He was getting wipped by Clottey till Clottey hurt his hands.Margacheato did`nt even have a major title or a big win until after Floyd went on vacation.

              I don't know about that video, but everyone knows he openly ducked Margarito. Marg even stepped up to Floyd and Floyd talked himself out the fight like a lil biooch. I remember watching that vid, it had me rollin.

                Clottey quit when the going got tough, like he always does.

                The media also hyped Cintron and Margarito blasted him out.


                Trying to think of anything that Baldomir did better. Beat the headcase Judah maybe.

                    I agree. IMO I just believe because of what Margarito did, it just brings down anything he ever had going for him. Whether it happened before or after.
