    Dont play dumb, it suits you too well.
    There's an MP promotions? Kid wants to be like Mayweather so bad... Difference is that Mayweather actually signs fighters and takes interest in their careers. guy doesn't do that, still answers to arum and has no say whatsoever.

      Did Cotto press for the fight?

        Mayweather was ducking Baldomir. DLH > Margs. In your theory, Margs fight wasn't a big fight in '06.

        Already gone over this w/ you... guy said he'd take the lesser share. Flat fee includes his guarantee and piece of the backend aka not 50/50, Still hasn't even signed on the dotted line for testing.

        Good for your dream fight... but stop avoiding the question, why do UK fighters blow?
        No its no ones fault. I dont blame Cotto or Arum for passing on the fight in 05 because Cotto wasn't ready. I would've questioned Floyd taking on Cotto instead of better available opponents the same way I questioned him taking on someone like Ortiz who also clearly wasn't ready.

        Margarito was a better opponent than Baldomir. And paid the same money as Baldomir. Mayweather chose the easier opponent.

        He said he'd take a lesser guarantee.

        I dont see what UK fighters have to do with this discussion. I guess you must be struggling or I touched a nerve again. Thats your opinion that they "blow", you're entitled to it.

          To be fair, didn't Cott openly say he wasn't going after a Mayweather fight in 07-08??? And TR said Cotto wasn't ready for Floyd in 05-06, but when Floyd left TR and than talked up retiring in 07', they started the duck campaign. And still, Cotto said he wasn't pursuing Mayweather anyway.

          The fight happened last saturday anyway, when Cotto was the WBA SWW champ and #1 SWW, past his prime-still good, same as Floyd.

          Oh well, s**t happens.

          Why you guys are all having this ****** pissing contest about this s**t is beyond me....

            Gee, maybe the undisputed champ at the time (Judah) who Mayweather was signed on to fight before Judah-Baldomir even took place. Mayweather followed through on that and went on to fight the guy he was ducking after.

            Margs fight wasn't a big fight though. If Cotto wasn't a big fight in '05, how could Margs be considering the competition he faced up until that point?

              What does that even mean? Does Cotto "press" for any fights? The point is so moot. Floyd said publicly he had no interest in the fight. What was Cotto supposed to do? Cut a WWE promo on him and the fight woulda happened?

                So Judah coming off a loss to Baldomir was a better opponent than Margarito? And Baldomir was a better opponent than Margarito?

                No point in continuing this tbh. I must be dumber than you guys for actually trying to reason with you.

                  He has never really persued any fight, he fights whoever is put in front of him. That's Cotto or it used to be anyway.

                  Yeah you're right, I had time on my hands and got ****** into trying to reason with ****riders. I should slap myself.

                    Okay, so who was the biggest fight for Mayweather in '05 then? Now that you mention Ortiz as well... who should Mayweather have fought since guy wouldn't sign the contract for random testing?

                    That's your assumption pertaining to who would be a tougher opponent. Mosley sparked Margs, Mayweather cruised against Mosley. Cotto struggled with Mosley. Mayweather beat Cotto convincingly. In hindsight, what has Margs done [especially considering the cheating]... deal with it. Just say you hate Mayweather and I'd respect that.

                    Semantics...

                    You asked me, anything else? So I'm asking you why UK fighters blow? I'll take your reluctance to respond as an admission that they blow because they just simply do.

                    Now what does you complaining about Mayweather's hit list have to do with the fact that he's actually knocked four out of five off the list? He has beat 4/5 on the list so far, correct?

                      baldomir was the lineal champ right?beat the lineal champ right?what did margarito do exactly at that point?
                      why has sergio not fought sturm or pirog?because no one cares about them and honestly have not done anything to make anyone care about them and the same goes for margarito at the point when you people say this fight should had happened
