    What you fail to realize is that boxing is a business not about "courage to take a beating" like you say. Now if Margo gets past Cotto and team Arum can pay PBF 20 mil he'll take the fight.

    He got his bout with Judah because he was the mandatory challenger dumb ass.

    What?

    That Margarito will land some punches and maybe rough Floyd up a little bit?

    Of course he would, he throws a shitload of punches and would probably outweight Floyd by 20 pounds come fight night.

    Still, AM would be severely beaten on points and maybe take a round or two at best.

    so you say, Fraud already turned down his then biggest money offer to duck AM.

    yeah I know he beat Baldy for 8 mil and the linear titl.

    But peep this.

    Fraud pissed away AM's 8 mil and free agency offer before the Baldy-Gatti fight even took place. It was certainly a possibility at that point that Gatti outboxes Baldy and theres no interest in a Fraud-Gatti rematch. So where does that leav Fraud at that point? DLH was outta the picture at this point as well. . .

    Heres the obvious answer, Fraud had ZERO intention of facing AM, no matter what. He didnt have the courage then and has shown no sign of finding said courage.

    You asked where the hell Baldy was ranked.

    He fought his way to the #1 position for the IBF title I believe, which made him Judah's mandatory challenger for that belt.

    You know, part of the UNDISPUTED AND LINEAR title.

    IF AM were so hell bent on Floyd like you seem to think he is, he could have scrapped the bout with the formidable Manuel Shotgun Gomez.

    Or did you conveniently forget that Floyd did offer to fight him?

    And don't say that Margarito already had the contract and everything all set because it ****s up your distorted little time line.

    Baldo was actually the mando for Judah's WBC title. Anyway, Margarito has yet to beat a solid B level fighter yet he's going to beat an A level fighter in the form of Cotto and then be the worse nightmare of an A+ level fighter in the form of Mayweather? I don't think so. Margo is tough, solid veteren fighter. However, he's not the most skilled fighter. I respect Margo, and am glad to see him get his big money fight. He has certainly earned it. However, I don't see him beating any elite fighters. If Paul Williams and Daniel Santos are boxing circles around you, you're not going to beat a guy like Floyd or Cotto.

    Oh yes, I forgot that the IBF is so much worse than the WBO. Your boy's sanctioning body that had Manuel Gomez in the top ten the minute the bout with Margarito was signed three divisions from his best days ten years prior.

    R U ****ing Serious?

    ESPN?

    BS short notice (red herring argument), AM was in mid camp training to face a straight forward fighter.

    AM's 8 mil offer came with full notice and free agency. :deal Thats the much more reasonable offer.

    refute this point. . .

    Fraud pissed away AM's 8 mil and free agency offer before the Baldy-Gatti fight even took place. It was certainly a possibility at that point that Gatti outboxes Baldy and theres no interest in a Fraud-Gatti rematch. So where does that leav Fraud at that point?
