    so you think margo is only fighting williams becasue of what williams claims happened during a sparring match? you have to take into account that he is the no 1. contender for margo's wbo belt. and heres an example for you, ruiz claimed to have dropped lennox lewis in a sparring match. and lewis never fought ruiz.

    you could say that but its in the past. mayweather has gone and beaten better fighters. so the general concesus here is that mayweather would have beaten him anyway. its not definite but who would you put your money on?

    No, i said NOTHING of the sort. No need ot twist my post into meaning what you want it to mean. I said he watsed time w/ N'Dou and Sosa when Spaddy was there.

    Just because you and a bunch of others are completly fine with Floyd fighting just anyone, not everyone is.

    Especially when there were guys like Casamayor, Freitas, Spaddy, and Johnston around his weight. Now I'm not saying it was Floyd's fault they were never made. But they were all marquee names in the divisions Floyd fought and we got zilch.

    Instead we get Floyd vs. N'Dou, Sosa, Corley, Bruselles...

    I don't give a **** on who I or anyone else thinks might have won because it doesn't make it true. The only way to really see is to actually have the fight. I want to see it not just discuss another "what if"...

    Not just for that reason, but it is very similar in nature. Williams made an issue of it and has used that as his case for this matchup. Again, Spadafora was the BF champ beating a champ is worth more than a contender, so that only makes it worse for Floyd.

    It all comes down to being willing to fight the best comp and Floyd hasnt been willing to do so.

    then If im clueless talking **** then present the entire vid , not the **** from you tube ass hole ..

    you telling me Im clueless has as much sting as mosquito bite , your just annoying nothing more.

    as in the vid berstine did say the vid too place 2 year prior . Ill give you that..
    but he also make reference that Floyd was out of shape.. Spad has as much claim as Augie shanchez thinking he could be mayweather . one victory happen in the amateur and the other in sparring .. both fighter are in- consistent as hell and where they are in there current boxing career proves it .

    ok, but you cant fight everybody. so there are match ups that you will wonder about. but no doubt people would have loved to seen him mix it up with freitas and casamayor.

    :happy


    Btw, Silver?? Had PBF faced Spat in 2000 or 2001?? I would have had $5,000 on Spat:good

    Would i have been right or wrong??Couldve, shoulve, we'll never know!!!

    I can hear people laughing at that statement, but why such a fuss over a guy MOST BELIEVE would have been EASY MONEY??


    Floyd thought the same **** until that December day in 99:lol:

    No you can't. Which is why Floyd should not have wasted time with Sosa and N'Dou.

    Since when the hell did sparring mean ****??

    I bet John Paxon outplayed Jordan in some practices too, does mean **** when they start the clock on a real game.

    there are other fights people missed out on like freitas, casamayor at 135. apparently mayweather had the chance to fight vivan harris for his debut at 140 but he fought gatti. and then the margo issue. so there is a list of potential match ups that people wanted to see but comapring then all, mayweather vs. spadafora dosnet seem to be high on that list.

    No I never said you twisted any thing around I just ask the question .. as far as Casamayor , freitas and spaddy as well as Johnston . these guys are for more inconsistent then Zab.

    Casamayor you never knew what your where going to get until fight night and even then he would pull quirky **** during the fight.

    Fretas proved that once the tuff got going he quits not once but twice .

    Spaddy has a drinking problem as well as other personal problem so large that he went to jail because of it ..

    Johnston ?? why would you fight johnston when you can fight the guy that beat him..

    these are hardly guys I would called ducked or even feared.. spoilers maybe, maybe , maybe feared hell no. .

    well thats who he fought. all you can do is judge his resume totally. you have to ask yourself, if they would have fought, would spadafora have been the best fighter mayweahter has fought? if you think so, then you have the fight to be really pissed. if not, then you have to judge based on who he actually did fight.

    Ok, so now you want to realize that I'm telling the truth about the time of the incident?? :good BTW, you arent giving me anything, your accepting truth.

    Like i told you in the beginning, OUT OF SHAPE was the excuse used but 3 months isnt a LONG LAYOFF and considering Floyd never made an offer until Spadafora hit rehab 3 years later and MrPBF .24/7 "I'm always inshape"?? It's a very slippery slope:lol:

    Win, lose, or draw?? Floyd hasnt fough the best in each division since 30 and what if's and could've's dont cut it. All any fighter can do is fight the best and let the chips fall where they may.

    Also?? I never put the **** from you-tube up and when and where i would choose to post the vid is relevant to Spat's situation.
