this is comical.Golden Boy Promotions Offers Up Three Opponents for Margarito
LOS ANGELES – In recent weeks, there has been a hearty dose of bluster from the camp of WBO welterweight champion Antonio Margarito, claiming that he is the ‘most feared fighter in boxing’, and that no one is willing to fight him.
Golden Boy Promotions has the solution to Mr. Margarito’s problem in securing an opponent for a fight this year – in fact, it has three solutions in pound for pound superstar Winky Wright, former junior middleweight champion Kassim Ouma, and rising star Ishe Smith, all of whom are willing to battle Margarito at a moment’s notice.
‘I respect Antonio Margarito as a fighter, but his claims that no one wants to fight him are baseless,’ said Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya. ‘We already offered Margarito’s promoter, Top Rank, a fight against Winky Wright, but they declined, saying that Margarito was not a middleweight. Well, we never discussed this fight as being at middleweight. Winky is more than willing to come down to 154 pounds for this fight, and given the fact that Margarito has fought at junior middleweight before and has called out other junior middleweights like Shane Mosley, Cory Spinks, and myself, I don’t see why this fight can’t be made.’
‘And just in case Margarito doesn’t want to challenge himself against Winky Wright,’ continues De La Hoya, ‘we have two more warriors who are eager to test themselves against him – Kassim Ouma and Ishe Smith, both of whom can fight at 147 pounds.’
The ball is in your court, Antonio.
like I said above, Winky offered 1 million, peanuts, priced himself out
Ishe ? he could not get out of the Contender series, and he wants to jump up to the top just like that ?, is he on ****ing drugs ? Oscar is insulting for offering this kid.
Kassim Ouma, he got schoold by Roman Karmazin, nice try
why doesn't the golden girl get in the ring with Antonio ? lol, Antonio called her out tooComment

Don't be mad at Floyd for taking the fight that makes his career look better... Baldy actually has fought guys who are "mainstream"... If Margy fought Winky, Floyd would have to fight him, if he won... Floyd wouldn't definitly be running then... There would be no excuse... But, instead he's fighting Clottey... Makes since for PBFloyd to fight Margy right???? No.Comment

POWER AND A TEST AT THE WELTERWEIGHT LEVEL NOT LIGHTWEIGHT SO DO NOT MENTION CASTILLO OR CORALLESIf u disagree say what it is that u disagree with, pulling my head out of rear ends and all that mess is elementary. i think u don't got nothing to dispute what I'm saying. Tell me, what's wrong with weighing your options? What's wrong with fighting the linear WW champ for 8M? Why is margarito a better fight? What problems do margo present to Floyd that he hasn't seen before?

Even if thats true ,thats the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th ranked WW of the WORLD!!!!! you dont get ranked that high for nothing. You make it seem like anybody could just start boxing and get ranked top 10 out of no were, Come on now all these fighters should get respect because it takes allot to get ranked. Any which way, he"s been taking on the top 10 WW in all his last fights point blank.Comment

so the word "six" and "million" together, are nowhere in that interview ?
also, much like your girl floyd, you contradicted yourself above:
first you say:
no i did not!
then you say:
"I heard we making more than 6M"
so what is it ?Last edited by cyberthugpatrol; 10-20-2006, 01:34 PM.Comment

true, I mean no disrepect to the fighters, but being 7th, 8th, or 9th WW in the WORLD is not the same as fighting the 7th or 8th ranked best fighter in the world. That's all I'm saying.Even if thats true ,thats the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th ranked WW of the WORLD!!!!! you dont get ranked that high for nothing. You make it seem like anybody could just start boxing and get ranked top 10 out of no were, Come on now all these fighters should get respect because it takes allot to get ranked.
