    Baldomir v Mayweather

    I don't like Floyd, but I have to congratulate him on at least going after the linear title. I still think that Margarito would have been a tougher fight based solely on the fact that Margarito has a chance of doing real damage to PBF, though likely in a losing effort.

    I think that this fight will be tougher than most people believe, though. If nothing else, Baldy has shown himself to be durable, and also that he takes the sport very seriously. I think he will work even harder in camp for this fight to prepare himself and will likely have a few surprises in store for Floyd.

    For Floyd, I think he better not overlook Baldy while concentrating on DLH. I think he knows that a solid, explosive win over Baldy will make the DLH fight a bigger ticket so he should prepare himself well. If he overlooks Baldy thinking that hs speed and skill will be totally dominant, he may wind up on his ass, or lose a close decision because of the workrate of Baldy. I think that Baldy will make him work every minute of every round.

    I think it'll be a great, wildly entertaining, and close fight. the complete opposite from what a lot of people think. i wasnt gonna buy the spinks fight, but i probably will buy this fight. What a cinderella story.

    beating judah, gatti, and mayweather ALL IN THE SAME YEAR would be some else!

      I think Baldomir is a good fighter, he's stronger than Mayweather, more aggresive, and has a good chin, but he's too slow for Mayweather. Mayweather will probably coast to an easy UD. But I hope Baldomir knocks him out.

          I've just became a big Baldy fan after the Gatti fight, the man has not lost in 22 staright fights, just imagine if he wins this fight, Baldy will turn into a legend with 3 straight wins against Judah, Gatti and Floyd.

          But I really don't see Baldy winning this fight, I'm going with a clear UD win for Floyd.

          I'm happy that Baldy is finally making some good money in his last 2 fights.

            The thing about Margarito is that we all base everything that he does off of bums because he doesnt fight anyone thats good. We assume he has this crazy power that would be so much trouble but if he fought someone even halfway good like Callazo then how do we know that he wont look like a overrated chump?

            Thats why I feel that you cant even really say that Margarito is more of a threat to Floyd then Baldy or anyone else because Margarito is the only guy we really dont know hardly anything about.

            Its like Baldy had 18 straight wins but most of them were against bums. Then he beats these 2 guys and we know he is foreal. Why cant Margarito do that?

              i dont understand how baldomir is as strong as he is and as talented as he is, while being as old as he is.

              i could see if his style was like mayweathers or hopkins's, but this man has an inside style that is very physically demanding.

              these guys's careers only last until their 30. this man is truly an inspiration, and i am current on the baldomir bandwagon.
