Wright: "I Don't Need Margarito, He Needs Me."

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

In the latest chapter of the Winky Wright chronicles, the pound-for-pound middleweight tells The Tampa Tribune that he is leaning towards staging a bout in his hometown of Tampa, Florida, rather than face WBO welterweight champion Antonio Margarito in in the main event of an October pay-per-view at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

Very True Statement. Margarito doesnt have any real named opponents on his record,which is why I tripp when people say folks are ducking him. Seems he ducked his way to the top.

Winky would expose every single flaw in Margarito.In embarrasing fashion.

I would like to see this fight. I can understand Winky not wanting to take this fight for not being at least offered what Floyd was offered. I don't think Winky is running in this case, because I don't beleive he is afraid to fight anyone, **** he's talking about moving up to super middle to fight Calzaghe. TRhe same cannot be said for Floyd. I want to see Marg get Floyd first, and than possibly move onto Winky.

So pretty much any fighter who can get Tony recognition says "I don't need him."

There's a definite pattern here. Shame on those who thoughtlessly say Margarito has fought 'nobody'.

Yeah this is getting pretty painful the way fighters are turning down purses to fight him. What is your source on that other thread you just posted?

at first i was a lil disappointed in wright, but after reading the whole Article, there is no way you can say he is duking Margarito, when he may be taking a huge step up in class and power to fight Joe, who i think may be too big for wright.

So which is it... Winky thinking he's worth just as much as Floyd, or Winky feeling the rewards ought to be huge if he's going to have to "kill himself" to make 154lbs?

How much did he make for the Tito fight anyway?
