Why is Floyd held to a higher standard?

[BattlingNelson]

come on bat. we know the out of the ring stuff with bob and floyd. bob made it clear he wasn't gonna give floyd what he wanted for cotto or odh. so floyd did what he had to. there was no margs/odh option.

you and anyone else would've taken the baldo/ODH package, especially since baldo was the lineal champ.

and you didn't respond to my post about srl waiting 2 years to fight Hearns.

Of course he could have taken Margarito first. He just didn't want the challenge. Just the money.

Regarding SRL I don't get your point.

Even after. Berto's inside game is so whack. Margs would pressure him all night, and Berto would do the same, desperate uppercut crap he always does.

margarito's performances since Naz found the wraps does not suggest he could beat any average or above average boxer without cheating of some kind. it also makes every win hes had in the last few years suspect.

Good point. Although, only the most hardcore fans/Brooklyn fans knew who the Hell Baldomir was after beating Zab. The whole Mexican community/die hard boxing fans knew who Margarito was.

o k no eed to reply no more to you after that dumb ass comment but zab judah was a person that people knew even if you don't watch boxing and being from new york no one knew margarito not even the mexicans out here you can still walk up to mexicans in new york and ask them who is margarito and they won't know.margarito was so known by the hardcore boxing community yet you have people like brian kenny asking floyd why he is not fighting baldomir or hatton but he didn't ask about margarito

[BattlingNelson]

more than margs, yes because he had just beaten zab. but Baldomir wasn't a household name by any stretch of the imagination.

Dude. Baldo was terrible. Everybody knew that Margarito was the man to beat. Even you.

Stop the presses. We have an idiot on the loose! You're straight up lieng. I highly, highly doubt, there are any Mexican fight fans, that didn't know who Margarito was.

Brian Kenny is Floyd's Cossell. That whole fight they had was some publicity ****. Kenny knows what's up. He's a part of the "system".

[HeroBando]

He's held to a lower standard. He's the #1 rated 2x champ in his 5th weightclass, and any time someone brings up Trout or Martinez at 154, his fanbase in unison: "not fair, he's too small". If he took on Sergio at 154, or even a second rate MW titlist at 158, every "CW hater" here would trip all over themselves to give him credit.

i don't see how once he left TR given the lawsuit and the reason behind floyd leaving.

SRL waited about 2 years to fight Hearns. People don't hold it against him.

nope... The reason Margacheato lost to mosely badly coz as soon as he enter the ring... His lost his concentration 100% coz of the scandal... Boxing is like 50% focus/mental and 50% skills...

[letsgobrady]

flomos ==> Guerrero and Berto >> Margacheato! @ Welterweight lol! this how dumb or how they Love Floyd! lol

you are such a clown.guerrero has done more in 2 fights than margarito had done before fighting cotto and till this day margarito has 1 win worth mentioning and its tainted.no one said guerreo was better than margarito but now that you mention it why is he not better than margarito?what did margarito ever do

[The Big Dunn]

Dude. Baldo was terrible. Everybody knew that Margarito was the man to beat. Even you.

was margs better than Baldo, yes. Baldo had just beaten the lineal WW champion which was a better win than any Margs had at the time.

Margs wasn't the man at ww. I mean 6 heads and cintron wins make you the man?
