Why Does Mayweather Ducking Margarito Bother Mayweather Fans So MUCH?

Yup, but I bet there is no regrets in Floyds camp for not taking that fight now knowing how much of a cheater he was.
Kermit Cintron has been quoted as saying it makes alot of sense that Margachito caught. He also had metioned on how in fights it seemed chitos punches felt harder after 3 or 4th round.
I believe the guy cheated his whole career, because a guy that built his career on KOs, couldn't score one against guys named Roberto Garcia, Jorge Paez Jr, and Ramon Alvarez, after getting caught. Not to mention brutally losing.Comment

MAYWEATHER WOULD'VE BEATEN THE **** OUT OF CHEATO. Arum and mayweather were in a legal situation and did not do business together at that time.I mean he went on to become the greatest fighter of this era.
Went on to become the the highest paid athlete.
but for some reason every few months the BOOGEYMAN Margarito wakes up the floyd fans in their dreams and they start all these slick Margarito threads.
Why does this fact bother them so much?
Do they personally wish he would have faced Margarito and did to margarito what mosley did?
why does almost 10 years later those this fight still haunt them?Comment

Because Margarito is way better than Baldomir.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.
As for Johnston, he did turn him down. He was on the table and HBO wanted the fight but Floyd said no and fought Sosa and Ndou instead.
Here's an article from the time where it eas touched on;

Margarito is just a footnote in history to be honest, good pressure fighter but nowhere close to great or even noteworthy in a historical standpoint.Comment

Because it wasn't a legit duck, Mayweather and Arum broke up in an ugly court battle during that time. So the fight was never going to happen regardless of what anyone says. Mayweather vs Margarito, Cotto, or any Top Rank fighter wasn't going to happen.
Remember why DLH didn't want to fight Mayweather? Because he was in TR. He told him if he wants to fight he has to leave TR, so Floyd bought his contract out with the help of Al Haymon. Hence, that's where the Arum-Haymon beef started. DLH chose to fight Mayorga, so Mayweather was left without a dance partner and that's when he chose to fight Baldomir. But DLH-Mayweather was actually going to happen in 2006 if DLH didn't go against his word.Comment

Floyd betting on himself undid the entire "boxing world order", so to speak; Arum, feeding stories to his friends in the boxing press, helped create this false narrative of Floyd being afraid of Margarito (with no mentions of the fact that the money that Floyd wanted, according to Arum, wasn't available).
Once Floyd jumped to Showtime, you then had Arum and HBO, feeding stories to the boxing press, to try and make Floyd look bad.
Not that complicatedComment

He actually fought Baldo because he had limited big fight choices and he wasn't going to fight a TR fighter having just broke up with TR after the Judah fight.Comment
