Is Floyd making 8million for the Spinks fight?

[cortdawg25]

Anyway you want to look at it you were trying to downplay Spinks, and for the 3rd time now, he's at LEAST as accomplished as Margaritio if not more so. Spinks moved up to 154 and beat Karmazin on his first attempt. His resume has bigger wins on it than Margarito by a long shot.
.

Its more than Atleast, Spinks was the undisputed champ at 147 while Margarito was there. Spinks is the #1 rated Jr Middleweight right now over Delahoya and Rivera. Margarito is a tier below Spinks as far as accomplishments. Hell, I dont think Margarito could even beat Spinks. The fact of the matter is that dude skills are limited, the only weapon of chance he has is a 1 puch chance!!

YOU SAID MARG NEEDS A MEANINGFUL FIGHT AT WELTER BEFORE HE CALLS OUT FLOYD..................


was beating Judah a meaningful win? after Baldi beat him, a 16 to 1 underdog? or Sharmba Mitchell...who was making his debut at 147 aswell and was recently DESTROYED by Kosta. Are you serious? Do you really think those are MEANINGFUL wins? ..Please enlighten me..YES or No..

yeah they were meaningful fights, Judah was the undisputed champ at 147 in 2006. Sharmab mitchell only lost recently to Kostya and was a fomer champ. Cintron wasn't a former champ, Lewis was but u bet not say he is on the same level as Mitchell or Judah.

The fact remains that Spinx has fought the better opposition in his carrer and has a much better resume than Maragrito.

cuz people duck margarito

probably from watching the lujan fight.

he fought Bruseles and Ndou when? I beleive he wasnt P4P #1 then. U cant keep doing what u always did, u got to strive for better and that means fighting fighters that have actually fought somebody significant. No matter what u say or how u want to spin it, Margarito did not have that!!! Judah had that and he had some success in those fights too. And not all fans of boxing want him to fight Margarito, most fans just want to see him fight, and I want to see him fight Mosley, Delahoya, and wright. If he does that, Im good and I'll be glad I got to witness one of the greats.

I agree he really does need to step up and fight an elite fighter already. Or just take him out of the top 5 p4p Has he fought someone like Kosta Tzyu at the top of his game? No! Do we know how he'd do against someone like Kosta? Most of us have an idea, but NO!

I honestly believe that we as boxing fans aren't privileged to know the real facts about what negotiation are involved in any specific fight unless it's already a done deal, we can't say for sure he was offered 8 million(it was probably less & included a % of ppv & ticket sales) we can't be sure Mayweather refused out of fear or just cause he didn't want to fight on someone else's schedule, maybe Arum had no intention on making this fight happen & was just trying to hype up his fight. My point is it's not just about who would be the more entertaining fight(I honestly give Margarito & Spinks the same chance at beating Floyd; slim) or who supposedly offered the most money, this is their profession, the decision involves alot of unknown factors that we're not aware of.

I said it a couple times that Delahoyas decision was going to affect Mayweather. Of course Mayweather is going to play it safe until him and Oscar meet. By the way Cory Spinks will easily loose. They are both boxers (meaning they are not brawlers) and guess who the better boxer is.
