Right after Margarito kicked Cotto's ass. Mayweather was scared shitless of Margarito so was DelaHoya. Mayweather fought the awesome Carlos Baldimir for less $$$$ to duck Margarito. DelaHoya bragged he wanted the winner of Cotto-Margarito till Tony decimated Cotto. Then Oscar ducked. Best part was he took on little Manny thinking it was easier ROFL Oscar got his ass kicked Made my day:happy:happy:happy:happy
perhaps but that wraps are not going to stop the number of punches landed on a person..pacquiao landed 400+ power punches on a near 60% connect rate in that fight over 12 rounds...his face prolly could have survived but his brain and nervous syste, sure as hell would have still been affected lol
I know. Im specifically talking about the career ending injury he suffered. 400+ power punches is one thing, 400+ power punches with the type of wraps Pac was using for the fight (unless Im wrong) is another... Im just not sure Margs career is over after the fight if Pac isnt using that kind of wrap.
After extensive tests in a lab all that was in Margarito's wrap was a HARMLESS used gauze pad. Technically illegal as all pads should be knew but absolutely harmess This can be further explained as a crock of **** by when asked to produce the pads The CSAC embarassed had to stutter" Err Err We've MISLAID them" Sureeee they didatsch
LOL do not forget Paquaio was hospitalised after the fight too. He said Margarito hit him harder than anyone else. Manny didnt get away unscathed
Its very possible that Roach used the 5th knuckle technique he used to use with Hoya. Nobody would really care though because Margarito is a disgrace who tried to cheat because he obviously didn't believe in his skills vs a 37yr yr old Mosley.
yeah oscar ****ed up with that..weight drained and got the **** beat out of him for it..mayweather took on baldomir because baldomir was the man at welter..he had no choice..if anything after he should have faced margarito after hatton instead of "retiring":bart
Not true sorry . But even if it was for same $$$$$$$ wouldnt Mayweather-Margarito be a better fight??? Mayfeather knew to get in ring with Margarito his 0 was in dire jeopardy but Baldimir was no threat
So true. People don't realize the damage Marg did to Pac that night. Pac has not looked as dominate since that fight and thats why he will never go above 147 again.
Arum offered Mayweather the Margarito fight as a way to keep him apart of TR. Arum is not offering Margarito to Mayweather unless Mayweather signed to be apart of TR's stable. Thats why the fight wasn't made because Mayweather didn't want to be apart of Arum's stable. Which is why Cotto as soon as Cotto left TR he got the Mayweather fight and if Margarito left TR to join GBP would have probably gotten a Mayweather fight. Arum already had the Cotto-Margarito rematch done deal. Which is why Margarito ducked a Paul Williams rematch in order to fight a thought to be shot Mosley at 37 yrs old and even tried to cheat. ROFL Margarito got his ass kicked made my day.
This is true. For some reason its overlooked how hard the fight was on Pac. If you are a smaller guy, Marg is one hell of a guy to be in with.... I actually think that fight took the last bit of prime that pac had left (along with just natural decline and the wear n tear from his career) But ya, that fight was rough on pac. I think he showed a lot of grit.... marg hit him with a body shot in one of the rounds I think that hurt him good too.
he said Awesome Baldomir like he was a joke Arum said he offered Floyd 8 million for Margarito Floyd wanted 10 for Cotto or Margarito and 20 million for Oscar, these are facts stated by Arum. Did Floyd make 8 million for Baldomir cause that's what I saw? It's Prize fighting you need more money for bigger threat.
From what Floyd fans have stated he wanted 8 Million to fight Margarito and guaranteed fights with Cotto and Hatton of which Arum couldnt guarantee
