    How many times has Margarito been on PPV? Once, maybe twice.

    I love the history rewriting. You said he should fight Mosley and would never do so. You said you'd only believe it when you saw it. Well, now you've seen it. Enjoy.

    Are you too stupid to see the difference betrween HBO backed PPV's and smaller promoter ran PPV's Scar? Maybe spend more time on boxing and less being a condesending *****. :thumbsup

    If you think Baldomir vs. Floyd outsells Margarito vs. Floyd, well, there's always camels!! :thumbsup

    For the OP, Mayweather is ridiculous (great) at ad******g. What I mean is, there have been a handfull of fighters Floyd fought, who adjusted, but Mayweather re-adjusted, and the other fighter could not properly adjust again. There were even cases where I saw mulitple adjustments from Floyd oppenents, and again, Floyd would out-adjust his man.

    Now, to jump in the a few convo's that have been going on (and everyone refuses to agree on anything for 450 pages)-

    To anyone that gives Floyd no credit for his Sugar Shane win, c'mon thats ridiculous. Does Floyd suck ass as person? From what I can tell Yes, but the man is a master technitian of the sport love him or hate him (although we dont know him personally).

    Is Pacquaio an easy win for Floyd? **** no. But will Floyd beat Pacquaio if the fight ever happens? Bet the house on it.

    Is Floyd as confident I am that he will beat Pacquaio? Obviously not :lol:

    Margarito beating Floyd? Highly doubt that. At any point, today or yesteryear. Wasn't the then undefeated Chico Corrales a better win on Floyd's resume, than Margarito ever would be?

    Asking and answering my own questions too much? Maybe a little sorry fellas.

    Oh, and on the first Castillo fight, I see alot of people got caught up in Castillo's rope flurries, where 1 of maybe 5 or 6 punches he would throw landed, AT BEST. That is truely a fight where compubox numbers are overrated imo. I'm gonna get raped for this, but I scored that fight 114-112 for Mayweather.

    And all this Mayweather supporting, and the guy makes my skin crawl... this sucks, now I look like a Mayweather nut hugger.

    "Margarito is made to order for us" - Freddy Roach. That says everything we need to know about Pac's upcoming fight.

    Also, I think the Shane that Floyd fought, Manny could have Tko'd around th 11th.

    It's a simple question with a simple answer. I don't need any smart ass remarks. How many times has your sorry ass fighter been on PPV ? He was a ****ing bum who never was **** and had to cheat to win. Baldomir who beat Zab and Gatti had more hype behind him to sell a PPV over ***** ass Margarito who did jack **** at that time but open his sorry ass mouth . Get off Margarito dick. It's ****ing sickening .

    At $20 per ticket like the Margo fight, Mayweather could fill any football stadium in the world.

    What was the live gate for Margo-Garcia? :think

    Don't even try to argue that one.

    You think a fight with Margarito would have done more in 2006?, based on what exactly?. Margarito had one PPV which sucked balls even though the undercard was pretty good. Margarito was an unknown back then and his record explained why easily, if you insist otherwise then feel free to bring back your ******ed comments from 2006, I can't be bothered with your idiotic behavior anymore. It's always sad to see a 46 year old act like a troll behind the computer.

    Not according to his PPV history at the time it wouldn't have.:deal Margo fought Shotgun Gomez on PPV and it did only 25K in PPV buys. Fighting Baldo was the right choice who was coming off a win against media darling Gatti and a win over Zab.
