    Hell no. He fought a better opponent as proven despite all the hate about it. DLH fought Hopkins at middleweight, why the hell would he be scared of a tomato can like Margarito?

    Besides that, let's look at it this way. DLH wouldn't be a successful boxer and business man if he was dumb. If he fought a cheating scrub like Concreto, the future would be as dim as can be. Concheato loads up, gets knocked out and that's the end of it.

    Of course he did.

    Margarito was coming of his big win over Cotto.

    And was calling Oscar out saying he would even move to 154 and the public was demanding a fight between them.

    Oscar's response was "I dont want to fight any more mexicans".

    Instead he cherrypicked a fighter that was fighting three divisions bellow(Pac)

    Got shitted on by the media and by the fans for what was considered a coward move(I remember how it was like here when he chose Pac instead of Margo everybody calling Oscar a coward and Chicken De La Hoya etc).

    Even though he fought better fighters than Margo in his career at that point in time he wanted none to do with him.

    The rest is history.

    :yep That fight could never have been made because Marg was with Arum.

    Oscar had Margarito in camp as a sparring Partner for his bout with Vargas, everybody who has been around the Gyms in East LA knows what happened between them at Azteca...

    Just ask yourself this, why did Oscar postpone the Vargas match? why was his cup that high? its because Margarito beat him down in the gym and broke a couple of them ribs.... since then the Oscar has gone out of his way to stay clear of Margarito...

    After a week of seeing his name dragged through the mud, welterweight champion Antonio Margarito is furious at Oscar De La Hoya and Paul Williams for what he feels are petty games being played by his rivals.Since his spectacular win against Miguel Cotto last month, Margarito has seen De La Hoya dismiss him as a potential opponent for his final December 6 bout.Sure that Cotto would emerge victorious;

    The Golden Boy went on to say that Margarito was being “disrespectful” to Paul Williams by even proposing a bout with him.Margarito of course is not pleased with De La Hoya’s comments.“Oscar needs to stop disrespecting the boxing fans,” a fuming Margarito told ***********.com. “The fans are demanding this fight to take place. The fans are the ones who have made him who he is.”Margarito went on to explain he desire for this fight goes back years to a promise De La Hoya when he served as the Golden Boy’s sparring partner.“I have known Oscar for years. I was his sparring partner, I helped him prepare for fights,” Margarito revealed. “During that time I would ask Oscar if he would ever give me the opportunity to fight him.

    I saw him at a press conference and again I asked him when would he give me an opportunity , he then smiled at me and told the media that I was a possibility, but a couple days later he said he could make more money fighting someone else. He said no one knew who I was and there was no demand for that fight.”
