Ellerbe: "Margarito is Easy Work For Floyd"

[RodBarker]

what do you call someone who turns the biggest payday of his life to fight someone else for half the money??

Who said he got half the money , he got the same money with a lesser opponet that led to ultra huge money ,, Floyd has been very efficient in the way he has been matched and its good business driving the bus , he has beat every one with relative ease , Margo is just another of many calling Floyd , unless you didnt notice everybody wants to fight Floyd because he is on the top , he cant fight everyone so they pick and choose and balance risk with market with legitimacy , Floyd is very high profile atm , the highest in all boxing right now , getting beat by Williams and such wont secure you a fight with him unless the public and networks demand it , they dont ,, lots of very smart people decide who Floyd fights and with only a few fights left they chose carefully , its different at the top from a fighter trying to get there .

I personally would love to see Floyd be a fighting champion and fight Margo Cotto ( Cotto he will ) and say **** off to ODH and Hatton rematches , but his business is more important to him and thats his only fault , does that make him a coward or a bad fighter , no ****ing way , inside the ring he is still the best fighter of this generation even though he comes across a smart ass and greedy individual outside of the ring , he is still a fantastic fighter , calling him a coward is just a slur on you not him .

Floyd isnt Ducking Margarito? umm wasnt Floyd offered 8 Million to fight Tony?
Oh I forgot Floyd fought the much bigger name that everybody knew and loved Baldimor.
Look if this fight really was easy work for Floyd it would have happend already seriously. doesnt Floyd have a date with DLH in Sept? so how can they say that they are considering Margarito for November? that would be about a month and a half to prepair after the DLH fight, I smell more bull**** comming from the Mayweather camp.
Why hasnt Tony fought any of the bigger named elite fighters? Because none of them want to fight him, Mosley said no, Oscar said no, Vargas said no, Mayorga after Mayorga beat Forrest the first time he said no, Winky decided to take the offer to fight Margarito after he beat Tito even said so in the interview and guess what Winky didnt want the fight.
Bottom line is Margarito is being avoided, and while being avoided the Floyd fans are saying he hasnt fought nobody, how can he when they including Floyd dont seem to have the balls to fight, its a sad day in boxing when Kermit Cintron shows more heart in taking a rematch he didnt have to, and in the meantime Floyd simply avoids Margarito becuase he knows, and Honestly I think his fans know but like Floyd they aint got the balls to keep it ****ing real

This article is probably like many that turn up here mths after the quotes are actually said , when Floyd looked at opponets and chose ODH they probably did consider Margo and Cotto and Citron at that time .

Margo is a dangerous opponent for anyone Im sure advisers to many fighters think he is high risk with not much of a public outcry and media demanding they fight him so they choose somebody else ,, that makes them all cowards does it , that means they cant beat him does it ,, geez you guys think its all so simple .

Cotto will beat him and then Floyd will beat Cotto and what will the Margo deal mean then .

So lemme get this straight... Floyd is willing to fight 2 months apart?..one being in September if Oscar beats Forbes, then in November??...if any1 could pull it off its Floyd, hopefully he faces Cotto in Nov.

I so would rather see Margarito/Mayweather!

[MANGLER]

Even if Tony beats Cotto the fight will never happen.

floyds advisors talk big but they like floyd can't back up what they are saying

haha, well then why don't you fight Margarito??


Floyd knocks out Margarito, I'd say in the 7th-10th. Or a lopsided decision. Margarito is a straight forward brawler, look what happened in the Paul Williams fight. After saying that, I think it would be a better move for Floyd to ifght Margarito instead of De La Hoya, because it's a better win for him...but not as much money. If Cotto knocks out Margarito, Floyd will fight Cotto guaranteed.

I dont know why people are talking about posibilities that are not real. Tony has to pass the Cotto test first. Later if he beats him we can begin a serious conversation about this posibilitie. We have a guy that has a dificult test ahead and another one that has already duck a fight with margarito and has not show signs that wants to fight any elite welter and peolple here are talking about this. In june we all gonna know better.
