    He is Mexican though and alot of times that can sell by itself. Alot of Mexicans would pack the house and buy it

Floyd always talks like that and maybe its true and maybe its not but Im not going to fully believe it unless Margarito confirms it or a outsider confirms it. I do believe about Hatton because he has done it before and has confirmed it

      Arum confirmed it in an interview. Also, Margarito has not issued a statement denying it.

        Why whenever Mayweather says something it's always a lie but when it's someone who is talking about Mayweather it's the truth?

            Any proof of this? If he did turn him down, oh well he missed an opportunity.

              Margarito is fighting Gomez cause noone else wants to fight him right now. Arum said that if he beats Gomez, Margarito can finally get big fights coming his way. If he fights a big name, he's gana have the Mexican fans behind him so all that not well known **** is ******.

                  Gomez is a hard hitter but hes a punching bag for any decent boxer. Maybe if Marg fought anyone half-decent (not vastly overrated like Cintron) then he would get a shot at Floyd. He totally overpriced himself to Judah also.......

                    I smell bull****, Tony is dying to get in the ring with Mayweather.Even if he loses he gets a big pay day.Its not like Mayweather can rip the bigger Margarito up like he did Gatti.wasnt it Arum who said he made a 7 million dollar purse for a tony-mayweather matchup.Even after Margarito offered 85% of it Mayweather still said no.

                      bull****. Tony's been overpricing himself out with Judah and Floyd.
