    EDIT: haha you ****er
    i think i would actually put a small bet on baldy if this fight happened just because the odds would be rediculous.

He can take a punch and fire back, but he has no chance against a real fighter or even a slick boxer. No chance at all.
      Now thats where we disagree. I would pick him against Hatton or Cotto and I would have him 50/50 with Margarito. Shane is hard to tell but I would give Shane the advantage because of his speed

        well im sure the odds of an alien flying down and ****ing you are rediculous as well, but it doesn't mean it's gonna happen.

          I don't want to see this fight because it will be completely one sided.

          I'd rater see Floyd fight Margarito or Spinks, both fights I also think would be one sided, just not as much as the Baldomir fight.

          There is some humor, howerver, in the Floyd hating club that talk about how Floyd's going after bogus titles in each weight class.

          Margarito's WBO strap is one of those bogus titles, Baldomir's is not.

          For that reason I could see Floyd trying to grab Baldomir or Spinks' title in Nov. to set up a May super fight with Oscar.

              yea, like i said before, there is nothing wrong with floyd going after baldy. baldy is the champ and thats what you do right? try to fight the champ?

                  Add to that the only real title is Baldy's so its not like there belts carry so much weight. They didnt beat the real champ to get there belts
                  Doesn't matter what they 'think'. A win's a win and it holds plenty of weight. Just because people didn't know of Collazo and Baldomir, does not mean they haven't been good fighters.

                  Yes, I'm ok with Floyd fighting Baldy. There's never a problem with fighting THE champ in your weight-class. In fact, Floyd SHOULD fight Baldy...but he should also fight Margarito and preferably first. Margarito has had success vs better fighters than Baldy has, and is the better fighter.

                  So long as Floyd takes on Margarito within 6-8 months, I'll be satisfied.

                      how can u say floyd hasn't done anything at welter when his last 3 opponents are better than all of am's opponents ever with the exception of cintron. and zab would be am's toughest opponent ever if they fought. so how is am more deserving?
