    Another example

    Pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather Jr. rejected promoter Bob Arum's $8 million offer to fight welterweight titlist Antonio Margarito, and he instead exercised a provision in his contract to buy Arum out and become a promotional free agent, Arum told ESPN.com on Monday.

    its a toss up w/ any of em at this point.

    depending on how long it takes to get a figt w/ mosley signed, he could have the edge in that, cuz every day mosely waits, the older he gets.

    Mayweather just cut himself off from Arum and Arum was offering 8 million and a promotion deal.

    Floyd wanted to promote himself.

    Also - Margo was offered a fight when zab lost to Baldomir. Where was Margo then? Oh yea, he was turning a fight down to fight Gomez.

    It was never straight up 8mil for Marg. He offered a BS package deal.

    Arum said, "We intend to be back together. Everything with this was honorable and good. I had offered him numbers [for a multi-fight contract extension] that were livable.

    Arum said while Mayweather would have taken the $8 million to fight Margarito, he asked for a $10 million guarantee to fight opponents such as Miguel Cotto and Ricky Hatton, when Arum was only willing to guarantee $7 million.

    Out of Arum's mouth.

    I think Pac knocks Void out. Could knock Cotto and Mosely out also, but Void is the easiest fight of the three.

    I'd give Manny 50-50 odds or slightly better against Cotto and Mosley, and make him a slight underdog vs Mayweather. Out of the 3, I think Mosley would be the most winnable fight- yeah, he looked great vs Margo and has the size advantage, but Pac's still got the speed advantage and Shane's legs aren't getting any younger.

    After the DLH victory (or before??) wasn't there talk of Pacman-Margo fight and Freddie Roach laughed it off... LOL what next Paul Williams v Pacman...

    I'm really not sure how Pacman would do against Mosley but I think he can beat Floyd.

    Hmm.... Mosley would have messed Ricky Hatton up real BAD. Cotto would have messed Ricky Hatton up BAD. Floyd already messed Ricky Hatton up BAD -- he was the first to stop him.

    I think any matchup with these guys can go either way. I think that Shane (in Margo form) can take Pac. The Cotto fight would definitely end in someone being KOed. As for Floyd...if he gets by JMM we'll find out. It is an exciting year for boxing and I'm just ecstatic.
