    He was the lineal champ and 19-0-2 in his previous 21 fights.

    What has Margo done to earn a shot at the LMW belt against the number 1 P4P fighter in the sport?

    Sure thing. Anyone who thinks that fight was competitive doesn't know styles.

    TRULY comical. These clowns trying to make Floyd's win over Baldo seem better. But then they say Marg is a carbon copy of him JUST YOUNGER and there's no need for Floyd to fight him cause he's made for him. Hahaha. I guess it's because Baldomir had a belt! That must have made him a bigger threat than his younger carbon copy Margarito. Are they making these belts with powers now?

    Sure, and losing at 154lbs adds to one's credibility at 147lbs. Hilarious.

    There was a fan push for it. People were outraged when Floyd fought Judah instead of Baldomir first. Dig up some threads if you need to see it to believe it. You were probably in some of them, though I doubt you stated an opinion. You've been coy in avoiding actually taking a position on things. Easier to sit it out so you can't be quoted one way or the other.

    Explain how losing doesn't decrease one's chances of getting a megafight.

    Huh? What did I say I knew? What are you talking about?

    Threat or not is irrelevant. He was the legit WW champion and Mayweather beat him and the previous belt holder.

    "A" Fan push? Was it you? :rofl

    People were also outraged at the Judah fight because HE LOST as well.:patsch

    My opinion ******, was the fight was a going to be a boring, easy win for Floyd. Gee...was I wrong?

    :patsch **** off, the onus is on you for saying it DOES. So provide an example where a guy moved up, lost, then lost his status in the previous weight. Quit PUSSYfooting around it...

    I can see you're upset. That's fine. Take a breather.

    People were outraged at the Judah fight because they felt Baldomir deserved the fight. Look it up.

    It's unclear how losing WOULDN'T decrease one's chances of landing a megafight. Winning is usually what a guy does when he wants a megafight.
