    You're right, he certainly is grasping at straws. Mosley has shown himself to deserve a fight with Floyd. Rockgloves has not shown himself to deserve a fight with Pacquiao. That's just the way it is.

    He doesn't even make any sense. The two situations aren't comparable and to make it worse he says that Margarito has to earn his way back to these kinds of fights. That's basically what I was saying the whole time, but he's disagreeing with me?

    We are fundamentally in agreement, I don't think Margarito should walk back into a huge fight (though I would dearly love to see him have his ass handed to him), but I just didn't agree with your statement that Mosley built his name back up over time as though he suffered when his name was sullied by BALCO, I don't think that was the case. Mosley had big fights until his stock went down when he lost them, he wasn't marginalized due to the drug allegations, it was because he had lost more fights than he won 2002-4.

    Yep. He's just arguing for the sake of it at this point.

    You were the one who made a statement saying that Margarito doesn't deserve to fight Pac because he lost his last fight, as if the cheating had nothing to do with it. But there have been many examples of big fights happening when one guy is coming off a loss, Mayweather-Judah was the 1st one I thought of, but there have been Pac-Morales II, Jones-Tarver III, Marquez-Casamayor, etc etc. You don't need to get all ****y because I mentioned your man Floyd, there are other examples. The point is, the importance is not only that he lost his last fight, which you said it was.

    to be honest this is a very good fight and the toughest guy Pacman could fight. If he beats Margarito that would be very impressive, and a much better fight than a Cotto rematch as some have said Steward wants. By the way, Steward just joins Cotto and he is calling the shots on who Cotto will fight?

    It will probably be in TIJUANA MEXICO. NOW TELL ME WILL ANY AMERICANO FIGHT IN MEXICO? :patsch FILO Fight anywhere and they don't care if it's in their opponents backyard or the opponent is putting lead in their gloves. :tong But they should check how they wrap them

    gloves from now on specially on enemy territory.

    There's a few problems with this fight(besides all the cheating allegations). First off, can Margo get a liscense in the States? Second, can Margo still make 147 without draining himself? Third, is Margo the same fighter after getting whooped by Mosley and being off for over a year? If Margo can get a liscense, if he can comfortably make 147, and if he's close to the same fighter pre-Mosley, this could be a very good fight.

    That's a stupid fight to make and it's obviously written Bob Arum all over it... I seriously don't want to see that fight.
