    Yo i'm with that, if mayweather vs pacquiao cant be made and a fight with paul williams cant be made either. Then a margarito fight would make sense. Seeing that he would be the biggest name out there i guess will see how that plays out

    I find this quite different. Foreman isn't that big of a name a fight against a huge name like Cotto would help to change this, I think Cotto was chosen because of the name he brings to the table and he hasn't looked like a world beater his last few times out, so Foreman's camp sees this as an oppurtunity to get there name out with a fight against an unimpressive Cotto. Plus I think Margarito getting a shot at Pacquiao and Cotto getting a shot at Foreman is two completely different ballparks.

    Thats what I'm sayin fellas! I don't care if marge just got caught tying illegaly load his gloves and commit assualt against an hof like mosely. I just love his fights! I love it when he beats guys with those plaster wraps and their face is a bloody mess! I love it when he ruins careers! And absolutly adore it when he beats guys until their ears fall off! Marge is the man!!!!!

    Why should anyone mind? Foreman is making a voluntary defense. Cotto is a name opponent coming off a loss to arguably the best fighter in the world. Both fighters probably wouldn't be criticized too heavily for taking on a lesser opponent at this particular moment, but they elected otherwise..and now we have an intriguing match (in the eyes of most at least) opposed to a bout with a forgone conclusion. There's no hypocrisy here what so ever, unless maybe Cotto got trying to load his gloves against Pac and I missed it. Now that would be hypocritical.

    I agree, but nevertheless Margo will probably get a fight because of his connections.

    Put him in there with andre berto. I want to see berto get tested against a top welterweight. If not berto then i want to see margarito fight angulo at 154.

    To those saying Margarito doesn't deserve a payday because he cheated............Understood:good


    To those claiming they're opposed to it on the basis that Margarito should have to get to the back of the line...........OK:deal

    To those who claim the above and have no problem with Cotto getting a shot after being demolished, I say DOUBLE STANDARDS:deal

    This is one hell of a ****in quote. The man attempted to assault Shane Mosley for christsake. Warriors don't load their gloves, they fight on even terms. Deal with it and we will all be better off.
