    Floyd avoided a landmine by not fighting Margarito. Gloves controversy.

    In my opinion Floyd avoided a giant sized landmine by not fighting Margarito.

    I don't like or dislike either fighter.. but there was a 50% Chance Margarito loaded his gloves against Cotto.. I say 50% sounds about right..

    Loaded Margarito vs Floyd would have been the most talked about fight of the decade(even more so than TKO6). I don't think Floyd could have survived and would have had his career seriously damaged.....

    So in hindsight..

    Floyd was actually a genius.

    Y'all just wanna see Floyd hurt..

        I actually remember Floyd saying that something wasn't right with Margarito.
        And he was right.

          bricks or no bricks Mayweather wouldent have won that fight.

          Bricks mayweather never recovers, Normal Margo he takes a beating and bounces back and get brutalized by Pacquaio and then goes on to get beat up by trout.

            This is how I look at it too. On one hand, it's obvious Floyd didn't want a piece of Marg but on the other hand, Marg was a cheater who could have damaged Floyd's health and career like he did to Cotto.

            It's just a shame that it had to happen to a great fighter like Miguel Cotto.

              Assuming Margarito wouldve layed a glove on Floyd. Which is assuming a lot to honest. I mean Cotto was outclassing him for most of the first fight.

                I like how this thread hasn't got any moronic Margarito nutthuggers in here... Normal people with no agenda can see he obviously had loaded gloves against Cotto
