    With due respect to all posters and their opinions, I find it amusing that some of you think you know what deals were on the table when quite simply you don't.

    The very people you criticise and call liars in one post you claim their word is gospel when it suits you! :lol:

    :huh:huh There's an article with Arum stating that Mayweather would of accepted the Margarito fight...


    "Arum said while Mayweather would have taken the $8 million to fight Margarito, he asked for a $10 million guarantee to fight opponents such as Miguel Cotto and Ricky Hatton, when Arum was only willing to guarantee $7 million."

    Eze, no disrespect but if a deal aint done it aint done, it is then open to Floyd and Bob to say any old bull****.

    Who's to say other "roadblocks" wouldn't have come into play if the alleged terms were met ....

    Those made those statements like literally a day or two after they couldn't work out a deal.

    Arum eventually became pissed because like DLH. Mayweather made mega-millions without him.

    I seriously, seriously doubt that given a fair chance at Mayweather, Margarito would turn it down. Seriously doubt it.

    To me. I can kind of understand why Margarito turns down a Mayweather fight. Possibly expecting the deal to happen after Mayweather fights Judah and he fights Gomez.

    Which, an offer was in place, Mayweather agreed with Arum on 8 million to fight Margarito but Arum would only offer 7 for Cotto, Hatton and no DLH fight. Plus that would keep Mayweather a Top Rank fighter... which he just bought his contract out.


    Again while I kind of see why Margarito would turn it down.... I have to think of all the bitching and complaining he did about people docking and dodging him. He would jump at the opportunity.

    Look at Mayweather V Marquez for example, the fight I couldn't have invisaged a few years back.

    Here we have Floyd accepting catchweights and even paying penalties to make the fight happen ...

    Yet with some of the other fights, which I guarantee the boxing community would rather have saw happen, it becomes Arum's fault, or the terms aint right ... etc, etc etcetera :verysad

    Yea? Post the quote

    You realize that saying that you took a fight because you knew you would win, and saying you only take fights with guys you know you can beat, are different right?

    I mean every time you step in the ring you are putting your life on the line. Part of boxing is getting hit. Floyd just gets hit less than the norm. Floyd is one of those fighter who stands in the pocket. Margarito is one of those guys whom loads his gloves.

    Yes, yes, I know. That's why he wants Pac to take "OSDT" to make sure he preserves his life. We all know that "one-dimensional midget" has killed half of his opponents in the ring. Floyd is a delicate little flower that needs to be protected at all cost :thumbsup
