    the zab that fought clottey, and clottey and margo beat the guerrero that fought floyd.

    i really don't see the point in using clottey and margo in defending the floyd-guerrero mismatch.

    Robert Guerrero was a career LW and moved up to WW and beat Aydin and Berto. Doesn't make him a bum, but he is definitely not more proven at WW then Margarito or Clottey. When the WW division was considered to be on fire, you had Clottey, Margarito, Cotto, Mosley, and Pacquiao on the horizon. Mayweather took on Hatton and retired. Those other 4 men continued on the division fighting and losing to each other for the most part and Mayweather came back and took on someone who had never fought at WW. Now, he is taking on these men after they had lost or fighting career LW.

    Margarito lost to Paul Williams 2 months after Floyd defeated Oscar De La Hoya, later that year Floyd knocked out Hatton at the end of 2007. Floyd was already going to take a layoff after having 2 large PPV fights.

    in 2008 Margarito fought Cintron then Cotto to get back on the map so then he fights the the #1 WW Mosley......and he got caught cheating and then obliterated.

    STFU with Margarito:lol:

    Sad as it is, at this point he probably is. Trout >>> Berto, shot Mosley >>> shot Casa, washed up Cintron > washed up Kats, Matt Hatton = Aydin

    Floyd paid Robert 10% 3 million while he gets 90% 32 million dollars.
    If Robert is the WBC champion shouldn't he get more than 10%?

    we can speculate all we want.

    Bottomlines is people are nuts if they think that Robert is not on the same level as like a timmy bradley, clottey or margarito. I see him and Timmy as equally tough challenges and resume wise He shits on both Clottey and margarito. Is not hard to see that he is the better fighter among those three either.

    Marg is the answer to this interesting trivia question:

    Who's the one eyed non contender who made the #1 rated champ at the weight request a catchweight with a rehydration clause fit for one division below?

    Who did Clottey beat at WW that made him such a force? Zab Judah for a vacant title in a fight that Zab quit in?

    Who did Margarito beat at WW?...Cotto (with loaded Gloves)?

    No Canelo is not more proven by beating smaller fighters

    And yet, we base Mayweathers career on these wins? Lol. I actually respect Floyds and Mannys career immensely but the back and forth on this board and the critics of Manny's career is rediculous.

    Was there a rehydration clause?

    It was a 50/50 fight, Floyd for example had Clottey winning. That's 10 times better than running out the clock on Aydin

    It will all be mis matches.

    Floyd vs Lucas
    Floyd vs peterson
    FLoyd vs Garcia
    Floyd vs Khan
    Floyd vs Manny

    The only one that really stands a chance is Canelo and Martinez and if they can't land some hard shots they will be taken to school too.

    AS IF MARGO WOULDN'T BE TAKEN TO SCHOOL BY FLOYD.
