LOL, aint the biggest accomplishment in his career almost beating Margarito. That tells you a lot about his career.
Funny how Clottey and his fans keep mentioning his hurt hand. Margarito broke his hand in that fight and he wasn't complaining. Both guys fight very similar. I think Margarito is just mentally tougher than Clottey and that took him through.
Lets just see both these guys come in at 100% and fight at 100%, thats the only way to really determine who's the best.
That was a rusty Margarito and Clottey still couldn't beat him. Clottey did great for about 5 rounds but that wasn't a 6 round fight and you have to fight for 12. I'm also questioning his injury because he looked like he ran out of gas and got outworked.
Have you seen alot of Margarito fights? Everyone "exposes" Margarito in the early going. Then they got the **** beat out of them.
Mayweather thought that was too tall of an order. Personally, I believe he could have done it, but it seems Floyd wasn't so sure. He turned down a massive payday with Margarito before Floyd was making that kind of money. He didn't want it with Margarito.
Margarito threw 1600 punches that fight........Clottey walked away complaining about his finger. No blood, he did not even look like a defeated fighter. Meanwhile.................. on the other side of the ring Margarito was more ****ed up then probably ever. His whole mug was swollen. Margarito's style is good against small welters but against welters his size or a good size he is just another tough fighter but nothing really special.
And got a massive pay day with Baldomir with no strings attached. :rofl You dumb son of a bitches act like Arum offered a 1 fight deal. Floyd felt he was being robbed by Arum(which everybody that makes it does) and wanted to be a free agent and fight ODH.
I dont think Floyd is afraid of the guy. But yes, he did turn down a fight with him, but for good reason.
8 mil plus lots of revenue from HBO. And it lead to more money in future fights because he was the lineal champ. so basically he was rewarded way better
