floyd's tony margarito diss

[Scottie2Hottie]

people are offering to fight him some very good fighters

rivera for one has said he would fight him, thats the hardest fight for him out there available

you can say he beat a faded gatti an decisioned judah but then we can say margarito beat a green cintron coming off his longest inactive spell and had just had hand surgery, and then you could say, the best fighter margarito has fought he got beat by in daniel santos

hey, youre not gonna see me try and talk about margarito like he's a god...my first post i said im not even a fan.

my problem is floyd saying margarito hasnt earned a shot when floyd himself hasnt even done anything notable above 135.

floyd rejected the fight with marg before baldy beat gatti.

margarito also rejected the fight before he fought manuel gomez

i see what your saying but fightin

baldomir Spinks (maybe) de la hoya, mosley 4 in a row is surely the best he could do

[Scottie2Hottie]

hey, if he whacks baldy and proceeds to take down some big names, you wont see me talkin **** about floyd anymore.

fact is, he's saying marg aint done anything, when in actuality, floyd himself has barely done **** at welter, or even jr.

I still don't get it.

Floyds nobodys are still 100 times better than anyone Margarito has fought to date.

you mentioned Mitchell- 2 time world champion.
You mentioned Gatti-2 Time Worl Champion.
You mentioned judah-2 Time World Champion.

They might be passed thier primes but Margarito hasnt fought anyone accept Santos, and agian to reiterate, HE LOST.

I really don't think it matters what speculation is, because there is one all-prevailing theme behind boxing once a boxer is a "name": Business. Floyd is 36-0, which is super-marketable. If he's looking for the 8 figure payday (and he is, he admitted as much) he has to keep his marketability intact. So what THAT means is that he is going to protect his record until he can GET that payday. When he gets it, win or lose, a lot of us will see the fights we wan't, because it'll work like this (assuming the "big fight" is DLH like we suspect):
Win vs. DLH - record doesn't matter anymore because he's going to retire with megaloads of cash, so he'll spread out his fights like DLH did the past 2 years.
Loss vs. DLH - He'll praise DLH and downplay his own "trash talking" and line up some seriously tough fights to prove he's still "marketable."
Patience for the payday, thats all we need to have.

you mentioned a bunch of bums titles dont mean ****, cintron would kill gatti whipp mitchell, and be even money with judah, the santas fight was stopped by a cut, and he lsot by a point in santos home town

i notice a lot of people have that quote "margarito thinks he's in line to fight floyd cuz he beat a couple cab drivers, yadda yadda..." thing in their sig.

however, floyd fails to mention that he's done absolute jack **** in the past, what, three years?

fought zab judah, who i heard was recently knocked out by a pregnant heidi klum.

sharmba mitchell. uhhh huh.

what did these two do to deserve a fight with the great floyd mayweather that margarito hasnt? not to mention the fact that he was offered 6 (or was it 8?) million dollars to fight him.

im not a margarito fan, or even a margarito supporter, but i hate excuses, and floyd is the king of them.

just a smart business for PBF, he will fight Margarito after Dela Hoya.

All good 140 pounders, butr mot good WW's. Zab may have held a welterweight championship, but he didn't fight the creme of the crop at welter to get it. He was 1 and 1 against Spinks. 1st time he fought a decent Welter he lost. Sharmba is well past his prime. And Gatti?!?!? Are you kidding?!?! Gatti ain't gonna win any significant fights for the rest of his career. his career defining moment was his trilogy with a journeyman... Nuff said...

Margarito hasn't earned the right to fight someone as gifted as Floyd. He hasn't beat any big fighters, and Floyd wants him to so that when they fight Floyd can make a ton of money. Only thing I could fault Floyd for is being greedy.
