    Where Does This Leave Floyd Mayweather?

    In the aftermath of Zab Judah’s derailment, Floyd Mayweather, Jr. may have been left out in the cold without a recognized dance partner for April 8. A battle with Zab Judah was on the eve of becoming a reality for Mayweather’s second headline appearance on pay-per-view. A reality until Judah broke down against unheralded Carlos Baldomir from Argentina.

    It was scenario reminiscent of Terry Norris being knocked out by Keith Mullings in what Norris called a simple tuneup towards his already agreed upon superfight with Oscar De La Hoya. Unexpectedly Norris was stopped, his career never recovered and a very anticipated fight with De La Hoya never took place.

    The question is where Mayweather goes from here? There have already been feelers sent from people involved with Mayweather to Mike Marley, the adviser of Baldomir. Unless there is an abundance of money in the fight, it won’t not happen. The people behind Baldomir are not dummies, they know what Carlos can and can’t do. A fight against Mayweather for a minor amount of money is a sucker’s deal. At this point Baldomir can defend his title in Argentina for a decent amount of coin. [details]

    There is 7 million dollars worth of Money in a Margarito fight. Or he can keep beating up Sharmba Mitchels for 3 million.

      or he can go way up and fight winky... hell, this will be a god time since taylor is chickening out of the fight and winky does not have any good opponents out there... at least now... so why not a floyd-winky fist fight?

        i honestly think the shock from the upset of Judah and the fact that it was nationally broadcasted would put Baldomir's name on the list of probable opponents (however one-sided the contest might be).

            Mayweather might as well fight Margarito and get it over with because theirs no other top notch fighters to fight and you could forget about winky he's going after that vacant WBC belt (if Taylor vacants it). Bob aurum would put up the money for the mayweather vs margarito fight he has faith in margarito he's even going to give him his own PPV date next month. That will be margaritos 2nd PPV now that I think about it!!!! the numbers probably dont come out to that much but it must be good enough.
