But what if he has an "off night" and loses. Then everybody dismisses him as a fraud and he never sees a big pay day. Even if he loses to Floyd he improves his position for better fights down the road
About Margarito as a champion

I am not a big Margarito fan, in fact, I like PBF. I am just saying that this fight makes more sense than people want to believe. And you don't think Margarito is ducked? He has been trying to fight the champions for some time, but has been unsuccessful.Comment

Also, I agree with you that Margarito has something to prove to be considered a class fighter. I see him as a dangerous prospect right now that has yet to prove himself against an elite opponent. But at some time every champ was a contender.Comment

Sure, I think I read somewhere that Quintana was definitely in the mix for his next fight. Although beating him wouldn't cement him as an elite fighter in my mind. It's like beating Cintron again. He needs to fight a title holder who is well respected to get respect.Comment

Cong****, you know how to use boxrec. THIS IS THE ONLY VIABLE OPPONENT OUT THERE RIGHT NOW FOR FLOYD AND IS WILLING TO FIGHT HIM, WHAT DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND OF THAT? MOSLEY ISN'T FIGHTING TILL 2007, DLH IS PLAYING THE WAITING GAME, WRIGHT IS TOO BIG, BALDY IS A BUM ANYWAYS, HATTON ISN'T 'READY'..THE SAME GOES FOR COTTO. THIS IS THE BEST FIGHT OUT THERE FOR HIM, SIMPLE AS THAT.Originally posted by El Temibleok so lets look at Tony as a champion
won his title against antonio diaz who earlier lost to shane mosley then went on to defend against daniel perez who beat a guy who was 29-9 for his title shot then after the tony fight lost to brinkley off the contender
then fought 6heads lewis a decent fighter but had been beaten by Mayorga 2fights earlier and shud never have had a title shot
after lewis came Maurice Brantley who since losing to Tony has lost 6 straight
next comes Hercules Kyvelos who after losing to tony in a world title fight even though he never fought an eliminator to fight tony lost to cosme rivera in 4 rounds then took 18-10 Frank Houghtaling to a split decision
after that world class operator he fough daniel santos in a fight he lost on split decision after another cut in a fight i had santos up by 2
next comes sebastian jujan once again a fighter who beat no1 to get his title shot and has lost 2 in 4 since
FINALLY a good fighter comes along in unbeaten but untested prospect Cintron a flawless performance by margo sees him destroy him in 5
instead of building on that he decides to fight manule gomez 28-10 with 2draws in his previous 4fights with one of his victories beating a guy with a 18-9 record wow
so there thats world beater tony margarito's championship reign wow almsot takes my breath awayComment
