Yes, even Floyd Mayweather has his limitations. And they are obvious...likely why he avoids certain types of fighters. Yes Mayweather had the opportunity to fight a Mexican, with a bigger fan base than Judah who had just lost to Baldomir, and then he fights Baldomir who can't draw flies to sh!t if his life depended on it. But no, according to you, he didn't duck the more established, more known, bigger fan base, more exciting Mexican fighter who humiliated him on Camera at a public event...do you need to see the video again???
First thing first money is not invincible but he beats Margo too slow too limited. Baldo hadn't lost in 8 years so who was more established and must add was the lineal welterweight champion.
I beg to differ. Floyd would very likely only pot-shot Margarito... ..he would never attempt to stand or trade, or lay on the ropes like he does with smaller fighters. He would do his pot-shotting trick, stink up the fight until the long reaching, lanky, strong Margarito walked through every punch the brittled feather fisted Mayweather would throw... Margarito would have absoloutely no problems whasoever dealing with Mayweather's weakass punches. The bigger the risk Myaweather's opponents are, the more he fights like a b!tch. Margarito would crush those ribs worse than Castillo. Margarito throws punches from any position and any angle unlike Castillo, and he has a longer reach and has more power. If you want to claim that Mayweather would win, go ahead, but to act like he would dominate Margarito, or to claim Mayweather has this bag in a fight is ridiculous, there is a reason why Mayweather ducked him.
atsch Notable wins up until 2006 when Mayweather ducked Margarito Antonio Margarito Sebastian Lujan Kermit Cintron Manuel Gomez Hercules Kyvelos Six Heads Lewis Antonio Diaz Frankie Randall David Kamau Sergio Martinez Zab Judah Cory Spinks Rafael Pineda (arguably lost) Demarcus Corley Junior Witter Carlos Baldomir Zab Judah Arturi Gatti Antonio Margarito is by FAR the more established Welter Weight, and was the most feared man in boxing. Also, I think it's fair to mention that MONEY Mayweather fights for money, and Margarito pulls in more money than Judah and Baldomir combined.. ..so yes, it has all the evidence to suggest Mayweather ducked Margarito.
Anyone who uses the term "ducking" is dumb. It's a business yes, which involves a lot of talking, showmanship, and behind the scene transactions. What was Margarito ranked when Floyd was "ducking"? If Floyd fought marg theyd juatvsay he ducked Mosley then
He was ranked as the longest reigning Welter Weight Champion at the time when he called out Mayweather and humiliated him in public... ..Why do you think people started calling Mayweather a chicken or a duck after that. He ducked tha MAN of the division. So yes, he ducked Margarito who was a financially more rewarding fighter who would have elevated Mayweather even more, and sooner, and who was the longest reigning Welter Weight champ at the time.
Also marg would have absolutely 0 chance vs mayweather. The only advantage he has is power. He would quit on his stool before the fight ended
The most feared man was 4-4 in his last 8 fights , so just how good was he? And don't come with that conspiracy noise.
Lol. Do you really think business transactions take place in public while being filmed? You're a kid and it's obvious.
I'm a financial advisor for one of the largest financial institutions. Throughout the history of boxing, fighters have been putting other fighters on the spot by calling them out and challenging to a bout in public! It's been done for decades now, most recently Lara got a fight with Canelo by putting Alvarez on the spot by calling him out in public and to his face... It's the norm in boxing. Btw, I have been following boxing for about 20 years.
I'm actually business owner and investor and lawyer. I've been following boxing for 30 years. Margarito cried after that because hes the one who has to dance to get the money. What you see as Floyd ducking is actually marg begging for a price of the pie and Floyd feeding it to his dogs instead.
Since 2006 he beat up Joshua Clottey, he had a close decision loss to another man Mayweather was unwilling to meet in the ring, he then proceeded to beat Golden Johnson, rematched and destroyed Cintron, and destroyed Miguel Cotto. Before 2007 he had beat Manue Escopeta Gomez, Kermit Cintron, Sebastian Lujan, Sergio Martinez, Antonio Diaz, and a few other top contenders, champions and former champions.
