    Floyd said he'd stand toe to toe vs maidana, which he did.

    Margarito is slow, no movement. Maidana can actually move a little and punch harder ( with no concrete in his gloves ).

    i didn't care about the fight because margarito was only a ( cheating ) title holder.

    Floyd said he thanked God he never fought Margarito specifically because HE WAS WEARING BRICKS. Floyd states it and makes the reason very clear.

    Nonito, you've made some great points.

    The only thing I will touch on, is where you've said Floyd was retired in 2008.

    That's why people criticise him, because he was retired at that point.

    In many people's eyes, he shouldn't have been retired at that point, and he should have fought the likes of Marg and Cotto.

    That's what people believe.

    But what surprised me the most, was Floyd retiring in 2007, after his fight with Oscar, and not being interested in a rematch.

    Why did the money man turn down that opportunity to have made millions of dollars?

    A rematch would have been a huge draw.

    I doubt it would have grossed as much as the first fight, but it still would have been huge.

    Oscar was adamant he could beat him, and was desperate for another go.

    Do you think that Floyd didn't want to risk it, after a close call?

    wasn't it because Floyd won the 1st fight yet Oscar wanted the lionshare and his same demands?
    Also, I'm sure a part of the reason was Floyd didn't want to risk getting robbed again. That was an 8-4 fight which he almost lost.

    PBF wouldn't lose a round to that plodder. Margo is too slow too easy to hit and too little skill to beat PBF. All of you fools who say PBF doesn't have anything to keep Margo off are reaching. History has shown and PBF has shown that doesn't mean **** with elite boxers that lacked power. What did Pea Whitaker have to keep Chavez off? yet he schooled him. What did PBF have to keep Canelo off? Yet he schooled him. What did Winky have to keep Tito off? Yet he schooled him. Skills pay the bills and haters just hate.

    Tony Margarito was sick had not been able to train properly plus he was weight drained Add to that the debacle about the wraps when Nazim Richardson BLATANTLY LIED!!!!!!!!!. Tony was in no condition to fight. Then when he got in ring there was a juiced to the gills Mosely. A 100% Margarito would have demolished a clean Mosely

    Margarito was not the cheat in that fight Mosely was. He was juiced to the gills AGAIN!!! Yes AGAIN!! Mosely is a proven EPO steroid abuser & should have been kicked out of boxing. On the other hand NOTHING was ever proven against Margarito. His career and good name was ruined bye BLATANT LIES!!!!!!!!!

    Don't be mad at me because Margo is a disgraced cheat and was only average at that. Margo sucked without his loaded gloves.

    Margarito never cheated.

    Margarito tried to "level out the playing field" against a steroid/EPO filled Mosley.

    Pacquiao vs Margarito was a FIXED FIGHT.

    Margarito "threw the fight" and let Pac win on purpose in exchange for accepting Arum & Oscar's BRIBE of him getting re-license and a big payday.

    That is 100% true.

    After that fight, Mosley fought Floyd and Floyd made sure that Mosley was tested for any PEDs before their fight, which is why Mosley had poor stamina and not much power.
