Yes but you are ignoring some VERY important FACTS. First, Arum definitely is hurt by losing Floyd, but he still has Cotto who is already bigger than Margarito (so why does he HAVE to build up Margarito). Second maybe he actually was offering up 8 million because both Arum and Margarito realized it could still be a smart move LONG TERM. If Margarito fought Floyd he would get much needed exposure, and if he looked good he would definitely be in for some big money fights down the road. And again I NEVER said that Floyd should fight Margarito because he (or Baldomir) because those were the two best options RIGHT NOW. -
Hahaha, you've tapped out twice now. Instead of responding to my comments you choose to insult me by suggesting I don't know what I'm talking about. Just give it up, you're not fooling anybody.Originally posted by charlie31lol.........maybe if you knew alittle more about boxing we could have a civil conversation on the subject.
keep thinking that Spinks is a bigger fight for Floyd. Baldi would be a bigger fight for Floyd than Spinks....dominating a division is what he should be doing..not going up afew pounds beating title holders.(Gatti and Spinks).. Zab was not champ when Floyd fought him....
And for the record, I even said I didn't want him to fight Spinks, but I'm just sick of reading so much bull **** about Floyd or Margarito that is obscenely ******.... half of which is comming from you.Comment

Funny that Gunstar can acknowledge Baldomir as a hard hitter for his KO ratio but dumps on Bassilio, who was much stronger and a harder P4P hitter than Baldy.
Tell me again how Mayweather would breeze past one of the all time greatest pressure fighters?Comment

I think what I am trying to say is that I would rather see any fight basically but against Cory Spinks (and that includes Margarito). Personally I thought he should fight Baldomir and become the recognized champ, but Hatton, DLH, Cotto, Jose Rivera, Mosley etc. would have been fine. It just looks like Floyd has targeted a safe opponent that happens to hold a title. I can't imagine that Floyd would have taken a fight against Karmazin had he beaten Spinks. Furthermore I think it is quite significant that he lost to Antonio Diaz and Picirillo (bad decision but good fighters wouldn't have left it up to the judges). Margarito doesn't have any big names on his resume and he wouldn't make PBF the all-time greatest fighter ever by beating him. But it would show media and fans that he is still willing to take on dangerous (albeit unproven) fighters. I think we can agree that Spinks isn't a very big risk... right?Originally posted by Dirt E GomezHahaha, you've tapped out twice now.

Floyd should fight lots of people... Margarito is 5th, at best, on that list. You're the ignorant one since you can't look past your blind hatered of Floyd and actually analyze the situation without it being in a biased viewpoint.Originally posted by charlie31if i have to tell you why he should margarito then you arent a fan, you dont know the sport and you dont know whats going on in the sport..ive explained countless times, then you say ****** stuff like"who has maragrito beatin besides a green Cintron?".....you're very ignorant Gomez
If you're a Margarito fan, stop bitching about Floyd. Tell Margarito to take on some of the top Welterweights, there's plenty of em' around.Comment

LOL Marg is a close 2nd to Baldi if Floyd really wants to prove himself at welter instead of chasing fighters becase of thier names that are not in thier primes...or pillow hands cuz he picked up a trinket..why do you think Shane told Marg he needed two more fights before he fought him, Shane knows Marg is no slouch his ego isnt so big that it will not allow him to admit that..Originally posted by Dirt E GomezFloyd should fight lots of people...
