    Im not sure what you mean by that since Paul is credited with more punches landed in that fight.

    I think you are a journeyman when it comes to e-arguments. :lol:

    A bit past your expiration date. Still trying your ass off though. I'll give you that much.

    **** what you say.. the average not-so-knowledgeable boxing fan recognizes Sugar Shane moreso than Margarito. And these fans' money is just as green as everyone else's. Monetarily speaking, Sugar Shane is just as much of a draw for HBO as Margarito.

    He deserves it because he brings just as much to the table recognition-wise. :thumbsup

    So to you this was about money then?

    To me it says that Margarito would have to be an idiot to draw 50/50 with the Mosley of today. That is a disrespectful offer to the champion.

    Think about it. He accepts 50/50 from a man who is not on top, while he is on top, whats to stop the next opponent from wanting the same share?

    He has pride. Enough pride that he is not going to be stepped on during negotiations. This to me was not about money as much as it was about pride.

    Now what Mayweather did? That wasn't pride talking. That was fear. You don't walk away from a man when you are getting 8 to 1 what he is getting. No comparison no way no how.

    it doesn't really matter if it back on or not , my thread has proven its point margarito fights for the Dollar bill not pride..

    Which doesn't bother me one bit , but I thought it should be an eye opener for his fans that seem to think, Margarito is on some holy crusade for pride.

    Watch that 11th round on Youtube. Williams was never about to go down. He was hit a lot. So what? He took Margo's best and came back and whipped him in the 12th.:bbb

    So all that "start early" bull**** can cease before you even bring it up... Since Paul won the TENTH and the 12th Round on all cards.... 2 of the last 3 rounds....:hi:

    **** a name.

    Name recognition didn't get half the stars of yesteryear even money with then champ. This is how it works. You don't treat the champ like you are on even terms with him and expect him to deal. Mosley wasn't needed. He has no title. He has no number one ranking. And he has no prime to call his own. He's just there to be beaten, which he will be.

    People complaint about DLH fights all the time. Well, this was just another dirty trick by Golden Boy promotions. Why the hell Margarito needs to go 50/50 with Mosley?????? Mosley is not champion. Lost his last fight to Cotto. Margarito KO Cotto. Who the hell is Mosley to get 50/50??? Is about time Golden Boy Promotions show some respect

    irrelevant , money was the bottom line for the decision to fight mosely period not pride.

    The same thing Floyd hater kicked floyd for, Margarito turned around and did it twice but for some reason Margarito fan try to justify margaritos as something noble .. :patsch when its just business.

    some Margarito fans are True Bull **** to its fullest .
