That's because the majority don't know/understand what they're watching. There's a reason a club fighter like Micky Ward is more popular than an all-time great, special fighter and gold medalist like Pernell Whitaker.
trust me, if he wouldnt have fought Baldomir, haters would be talking about how he ducked him. of course its not a better fight than Margacheato, but there was nothing wrong with this match up and it was legitimate. margos a cheat anyway. **** em.
first, ward has never been more popular than pea, and second, diamond eye is absolutely correct, i remember it the same way and ive been following boxing since the 70s.
Not relly his record had so many loses that I don`t know how he became a champion, with no power punch.
Mother ****er, I DID exist back then and I DID talk all KINDS OF **** about Mayweather DUCKIN MARGARITO. DO you know who I am? Mother ****er ducked the **** outta Margarito. There is a 30 minute YOUTUBE video of documented DUCKING evidence. And I'm not talking about people talkin, I'm talkin about scenes involving Mayweather and Margarito that showed he ducked him. I mean, that was a ****in duck. I don't blame him... Who the **** wants to get in the ring with Margarito? I mean, if anything, Mayweather should have fought Margarito after he beat Cotto because Mayweather promised to Margarito's face that he would fight him in the future when Margo proved himself. I think his win over Cotto was proof, but Mayweather went on vacation. He DUCKED HIM. DUCKED. PERIOD.
call me crazy but thats one of my fave floyd fights...i just dont like the ending....he couldve easily scored a tko
Which means you're in your 50s-60s and too old to remember. I think I remember your username, hope I'm wrong, but aren't you the troll that kept saying Bernard Hopkins is a chicken fraud? The same clown that said Hopkins would never fight Tarver and if he did he would get brutalized. Then when that fight happened you were shameless enough, despite your age, to claim it was a joke of a fight.
If you existed and had any brains in that head, your post wouldn't look as pathetic as that. So let's get one thing straight, Andrew "Six heads Zero chins" Lewis is more courageous than Mayweather? , Mayweather is scared of Concheato but not scared of DLH at 154. :rofl There's a reason Pacquiao vs Mayweather isn't happened and the reason is obviously Arum as much as it's Mayweather. Do you honestly think that Arum wasn't using this whole "Mayweather is scared of Concreto" to get back at Mayweather for leaving him to fight DLH?, did you know that Concheato was already booked/planned for Cotto?. Did you know that Arum used the exact same promotional method for Hearns(my all-time favorite fighter) back when Leonard was stalling to fight him?. Did you know that Concheato's biggest win back then was Kermit Cintron? Of course you didn't, because you're nothing but a fruit. What the hell would a clown like you know about basic recurring boxing politics anyway.
No he didn't, jackass. What Mayweather clearly told him was when he makes a name for his self, he would be an opponent worth meeting. Back then only 10 Mexican taxi drivers knew who he was.
You lyin PIECE OF ****. Watch this VIDEO and tell me MAYWEATHER DIDN'T SAY he would fight MARGARITO to his FACE. If you say you're going to fight someone to their FACE and then you don't fight them, you are DUCKING THEM. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_BWElcszSY[/ame] Start at 49 seconds in. And you seen this you piece of ****. Stop LYIN!
