I used to be a huge fan of oscar because he would fight anyone. If he really fight pacquio thats bs. If he were to fight margo would the fight really not sell as good. For gods sake its delahoya vs a champion who koed cotto. Margo vs delahoya would sell. So he goes out there and gets koed. At least his fans would love him for taking on that beast of margarito. Its the best fight out there for him. How could he not take the fight. If he were to win that would be his biggest win ever and in my book would be a great fighter who fought everyone. Oscar give the sport of boxing what we deserve. We want you fighting the best out there margo. sorry im going on a rappage but this sport pisses me off sometimes. Oscar grow some balls and give the man wo used to be your sparring partner a shot. This fight should be for the fans who made you filthy rich.. im done venting going back to work.peace
Margo is not the best out there. Williams would tell you that. Once people get that thru their heads you would understand more about who the best is. The best does not have a loss recored exactly one year ago. The best would avenge that loss or attempt to. Margarito has not done that. He beat Cotto. But he can not lay claim to being the best at 147. Its just simply not true. No matter who says it.
I hear you man, there needs to be a Williams/Margarito rematch to prove who reigns supreme at 147 but Margarito/DLH would sell more than DLH/Williams by far. Mexican fans would love to see Margarito beat DLH's ass. I can't blame Oscar for not wanitng to fight any of the top guys at 147. Did you see what little Stevie Forbes did to his face in his last outing? Imagine what AM would do.
by your own standards Williams has less of a claim to be the # 1 welter since he has a more recent loss. And even if he avenged that loss he is still even (1-1 ) against Quintana so until he can prove he is better than Quinatana he shouldn't even worry about Margarito.
And Margarito still needs to prove he is better than Williams...That is the point...Because right now..As it stands..Williams has proved he is better than Margarito. So Margarito needs to prove that is not the case and not worry about Oscar who is at the retirement stage.:good
Oscar has fought a who's who in boxing in his era, period. If he wants to retire off a big fight, he has earned it. He is 2 fights removed from a SD loss to the p4p king.
He already beat Quintana and in shocking/outstanding fashion. Does this mean that Lewis isn't better than Rahman and McCall?, of course not. As long as an immediate rematch was there and he won then he proved he's better. Williams doesn't really need to worry about Margarito, it's supposed to be the other way around.
I will fight NOT a Puerto Rican because of my wife.... I will fight the winner of Margarito vs. Cotto..... Oh, I can't fight any Mexicans because I don't want to upset my people... I might fight Sergio Mora.... atsch Yes...please continue to defend and apologize for all ridiculous things he has said....
Another thing to consider, who lost to a lower ranked fighter? Williams or Margarito? Who just beat a higher ranked fighter too?
Here's the thing the first fight really could have gone either way, however, the rematch ended in a decisive victory for Williams.
Dela HOTA will not fight Margarito. I wish he would though. BOYCOT HIS PPV and he just might get the message.
