Fraud left money on the table to avoid AM. Arums offer was a one fight deal, meaning he could have signed the DLH fight as a free agent (assuming he beats AM). Goosen's deal was not a one fight deal - he overpaid for the Baldy fight and in turn he got a cut of the DLH purse - that cut was the price Fraud paid to duck AM.
"If it makes dollars it makes sense" - Frauds motto not mine. his motto has never been "I'll leave money on the table for the linear title" - probably why he fought Gatti for the money instead of Tszu for the title.
As a Floyd fan I personally don't give a **** if Floyd ducked Margarito. Fighters duck other fighters all the time. Bowe publicly ducked Lewis, Oscar ducked Winky, Leonard ducked Pryor, and for years ducked Hagler. At the end of the day, Floyd is still the p4p champ, he can get a fight with whoever he wants, and he is one most well known, as well as one of the top earners in the sport. Meanwhile Margarito is stuck fighting for a fraction of what Floyd makes, and doesn't have much control over his career. Now I like Margarito, and I wouldn't mind if Floyd threw him a bone and gave him a fight so he could get some exposure, and not have to keep takeing punishment for relative table scraps. However, I'm not going to lose any sleep if it doesn't happen, and I'm not going to get bent out of shape because a few Margarito fans wanna dig up flimsy evidence proving that Floyd ducked Margarito.
26 mill against an all time great or an 8 mill that nobody knew where the hell it was going to come from against a club fighter with a belt? hmmmm
He also fights for titles. And as for your last comment about KT...stop. I already proved this theory entirely wrong. It was impossible for PBF to have made a fight with KT. You can say he ducked Vivian Harris, but not KT. KT was inactive and stripped. He had to fight Mitchell to regain his title. Hatton was already in place as his mandatory when he won the titles back. His own team made the fight with Hatton without taking into account KT's wishes. So don't go down that road.
you got me there, I didnt spell a word exactly right. I guess that means Fraud didnt duck AM, inspite of all the evidence that proves otherwise. :roll: atsch
Yes, one who was hurt and upon returning signed to fight Mitchell who was the IBF interim champion and his mandatory before he got hurt. So PBF could not fight him then, KT made the decision to get his belt back. Hatton meanwhile became the mandatory challenger for the winner before the fight even took place. So again, PBF could not fight him. We all know PBF tried to get a fight with Hatton after the fact and was turned down 2 times.
I think Floyd should fight 4 ****ing people at once because no matter who he fights he is ducking someone and is a big puss.
DLH is not elite? Over half the people on here would pick DLH over Margo or Hatton right now wouldn't they?
