You have seen me provide links for pretty much everything I have put forth.i think it was stated that floyd had the option to make the margarito fight and still do the buyout..., which would have made the oscar fight still a high probability...at the time of the baldomir fight, neither camp had made any type of negotiation...it was just speculation at that time...
Where is your link for the assertion that he could still do one fight and a buyout?
And BTW, we know that this is how Arum does business.
He tries to get fighters to sign multi-fight deals, usually dangling one big fight as a motivation to sign an extension.
But, the problem here was the biggest fight that could be made was a fight Arum DIDN'T WANT TO MAKE because of the bad blood between him and Oscar.
THAT's what screwed up the deal, not any fear of any fighter.
The first fight Floyd wanted when he split with Arum was DLH and he waited on Oscar to make up his mind til September of that year. When DLH decided he wasn't fighting again for the rest of 06, Floyd went looking for other opponents.

Oddly enough, Margarito was on the radar briefly. But, that would have meant Arum and it is telling that Floyd didnt fight Arum fighters very often the rest of his career.
He made as much with Balomir (who, at the time had a better resume than Margarito and was considered as dangerous a fight) and picked up a lineal to boot.
You call that ducking, you don't know what ducking is.Comment

You know Floyd should have dropped everything to fight Mr WBO Margarito.
He should have just bent over and let Arum have his way with him like Manny Pac.
Buying out his contract and pursuing the far more dangerous Oscar was an act of cowardice.Comment

Actually there is evidence that Judah ducked Margarito. You guys are in denial just like when Winky ducked De La Hoya.How????
Baldomir beat Judah and was unified WW Champ
What was WBO Tony doing at the time?...lol
If Margarito had taken all those straps from Judah he would have got that work instead of Baldomir....but he was satisfied being Mr WBO
All he had to do was drop that crap strap and become Floyd's WBC mandatory....but he didn't.
Tony had a chance to fight Judah but wanted no parts.
Floyd did not turn down Lil Stevie...show proof.Comment

Sorry man, lost my mind for a second.
Sure you right!
Floyd was running scared to fight Baldomir, who had a lineal AND the scalps of Judah and Gatti around his waist.
He should have took less money and continued to let Flappy Bob own him, and fight the dangerous 'Cheato whose only notable win was over Kermit "Look, I can Fly" Cintron and had a loss to worldbeater Santos a year and a half earlier.
My bad...Comment

i never said ducking, i only stated in my opinion that in hindsight, i would have preferred a margarito fight to baldomir, because the baldomir fight, imo was a travesty..You have seen me provide links for pretty much everything I have put forth.

regarding the buyout option, this statement from the espn article:
However, Arum said he would have extended the window if Mayweather had asked.
From this, I gather a Margarito fight was a viable option, and the buyout @ 750,000 was still on the table.
But All your points make sense and your proof matches up, much respectComment

You are the perfect example of what I posted.
The facts are clear. Since they are, you discuss the "floyd boys" instead since the facts refute your position.Comment

The wraps definitely made him appear scary, plus calling floyd out on tv, and even approached floyd in person, where he appeared shooked (look it up guys), that was one of the funniest confrontations ever. Floyd is no doubt better, and would've found a way to easily outbox margarito even with his wraps on. But floyd was also definitely scared that time, or so he made it appear.Comment
