    Well he's had a few big pay days he shouldn't have got after cheating, so who gives a ****. I've no time for him.

    Saying that i'm glad Cotto got a chance to put things right.


    @Leroy - If you call blocking punches with your head a defence, then yeah he has tried to defend himself, especially with his eye.

    If Margarito actually fights Chavez JR, goodbye to that eye completely.

    Sergio has signed an agreement with the WBC to fight the winner. Lee signed a similar agreement to fight Sergio should Lee win. Guess who hasn't signed anything. I'll give you 3 guesses and the first 2 don't count.

    :lol: well damn. I wondered how those things worked. How long has Chavez (I'm assuming that's the right answer) had the contract in front of him

    I have no idea. However, DeBouf and Arum sound very non commital whenever they are asked about it. They don't want to be forced into anything. It seems to me as though they want to see how Jr. does against Lee before committing him to a fight with Martinez.

    I don't want to be overly negative of Chavez all the time, but I doubt he does fight Sergio. Which is messed up because Sergio's gonna be waiting around with no fight.

    It's really not up to Jr. I believe Jr. wants the fight. However, he's not in a position right now to call his own shots. He pretty much has to trust his handlers.
     
  8. I would really like for his eye to heal properly. Margarito is an exciting fighter IF matched up against fighters who come to bang. Heck he even makes chasing exciting soo... Anytime you have a guy with the heard, determination and offensive mindset Marg has you'll get an intriguing fight.

    Oh no, you mean he caught Mosley-itis?! Just kidding, I really hope Shane proves me wrong and takes it to the kid.

    ya good point. Arum sucks, but he's smart at what he does. I think he'll maneuver himself out of the fight. He's really good at avoiding fights, but appearing to make an effort to get them done

    I'm taking a wait and see approach to Jr. Nobody thought that he'd ever fight real opposition but he's really stepped it up in his last 4 fights. Sure the decisions were close/controversial but at least he's fighting game contenders.

    Mosley made Margarito his *****. Pacquiao brutally violated and embarrassed him. Cotto made sure he felt like the 1 dimensional little ***** that he really is.

    lol @ glass eye
