    Nah, you know what you THINK you know. If you weren't there, you don't really know.

      For those who are still crying about the wraps:

      Capetillo took the blame and got a life time ban in the US. Margo took his suspension and did not sue.

      You can take it from there trying to spin this to minimize what happen. The penalties were heavy and both accepted them.

        I still would watch if those two fought in 6 months.

          I can’t prove that Epstein didn’t kill himself. I just know it’s true.

            Yep. The fight should’ve been held @ 147 instead of giving Margarito an extra 3 lbs weight advantage plus a chance to rehydrate to 165 lbs

              Totally different situation with an expert's examination.

                It seems like you’re looking for a KO blow. There is no opening for one. I ended this talk with “where there is smoke, there is fire”, which was me admitting the evidence is largely circumstantial. Only a fool needs everything to be proven without a shadow of a doubt though. Use your common sense.

                  I love dissecting posts like these. So, let’s;

                  Floyd moved to 140 in 2005. He beat Gatti and Sharmba Mitchel and then moved to 147 in 2006.
                  So your theory that Floyd ducked him in 2005 is hogwash.

                  Floyd fought Zab and Baldomir in 2006. At that time Floyd was not a PPV Star. The only PPV fight he’d was with Gatti who was the A list then.

                  Floyd fought Oscar and the popular Hatton in 2007. That’s when Floyd became a cross over superstar.
                  So, your theory that Floyd ducked an $8m pay day in 2005 and 2006 is hogwash. Again.

                  Floyd and Arum the scum were never going to work together and Arum is on record refusing to match Cotto with Floyd.
                  FYI, Floyd called out Cotto at 140 after he had destroyed Gatti and Cotto refused. They needed a tune up for a guy that had just moved up to 140.
                  Cotto is on record about that during their 2012,clash. He did not deny it.

                  So your theory that Floyd ducked Cotto is Hogwash. Again.

                  Margarito did offer Floyd $8m. That part is true. But riddle me this please, Margarito’s biggest payday was against Cotto and it was less than $8m so how the he’ll can afford to pay Floyd $8m??

                  Floyd and Arum were not about to work together. So that theory is just hogwash.

                  Just FYI, Oscar, Floyd, Cotto, Mikey Garcia all left Arum the dirtbag. PAC also left briefly before Arum threatened a lawsuit so there goes your theory of offering Floyd money.

                  So Mosley is a cheat and Margarito was caught red handed is not.
                  Mosley destroyed him like a little biyatch that he was.

                  A year later Mosley the destroyer of Margarito got beat up by Floyd. Surprise, surprise

                  Margarito was a garbage fighter and got exposed when he got caught cheating and by Mosley. Period
                  *****wea7her used Arum excuse to duck Margarito. Why wouldn't he want to beat one of Arum's key assets? If he really hated Arum, beat his key asset in the ring and laugh to the bank. But Floyd knew Margarito was too much to handle. Fraudweather also ducked Vivian Harris at 140. Kathy Duva said if you want Gatti, first we'll give you a WBA title shot vs Harris, then you get Gatti. Floyd knew he couldn't handle Harris and handpicked a patsy Henry Bruseles instead. Fraud picked a patsy nothing fight instead of a wba title shot to guarantee a gatti fight. Floyd is a total fraud, you have been completely deceived. Fraudweather even refers to himself as a rich coward.

                      All the fighters that left Arum did so because he was stealing from them. They all went on to make so much more money without him.
                      Cotto was loyal but his biggest paycheck was after he left Arum and fought Floyd.

                      Vivian Harris got destroyed by Carlos Moussa from Colombia. A can unlike any other. He went in to get destroyed by Hatton. Guess what happened to Hatton when he fought Floyd??

                      Didn’t Floyd fight and destroy that same Gatti?

                      Harris was accused of ducking Cotto. See link below. Also, Floyd had just moved up to 140 so how is he ducking anyone when he went for a title holder and called out Cotto and Tszyu. Cotto has beaten Moussa.

                      This coming Saturday night, the WBA junior welterweight champion Vivian Harris (25-1-1, 17K) will get some much needed exposure when he faces Carlos Maussa (17-2-15K) on the undercard of the very anticipated Arturo Gatti vs. Floyd Mayweather, Jr. mega-bout. Harris is looking to make a very impressive statement to the boxing world in order to get some recognition from the general boxing public as one of the elite fighters at 140 pounds. Thsi past weekend, Vivian sat down with BoxingScene to discuss his career, rumors of ducking Miguel Cotto, the Gatti-Mayweather bout and various other topics.
