That's because Mayweather dominated 130 and 135 and already accomplished enough so he had the right to retire or lose the motivation to continue. Margarito has only just started.
I can respect that but I dont want his fans talking about him vs. Cotto or Margarito if thats the case.
They offered Margarito 4 million guaranteed and 50% of revenue. Where else is he going to beat that right now? Nowhere. Antonio didn't give Paul a favor by fighting his mandatory, he did himself one. If he won he would have better leverage in negotciations with Cotto. He lost and his reluctance to fight Paul was confirmed, he knew he couldn't beat him. I've already discussed Quintana in another thread but here is what he said about a third fight. ""There is a desire to continue, but it depends on what my team says. I realize that I have the talent. I realize that there are other boxers out there that I can fight. Paul Williams is not an easy fight. He beat me and he beat Margarito who now challenges Cotto. Maybe I can go after a vacant title or a possible eliminator to land a title fight. I'm going to take a few months off to rest and then make a decision on what I plan to do next," Quintana said." Its clear he doesn't want to see Paul anytime soon. How in the hell can Clottey and Mosley leap frog Paul Williams and you not think Margarito is ducking him?
Clottey is a top rank fighter with Margarito's belt, Mosley is a bigger name, and Williams has to wait. :good
Past prime De la hoya who fights once a year more dangerious than Margarito or Cotto at their peaks??? WOW.
Mosley is not going to fight Margarito because he is about to fight Mayorga, what is Antonio going to do for the rest of the year? Clottey is hurt that fight probably won't be able to go off this year, also what does it matter if he collects another belt, he still won't be WW champion.
Every boxer is going to have ppl saying negative things about them. Thats just how it is. I think Paul should fight Quintana again so they can settle the score and so he can prove that Quintana is not on his level & silence all the critics.
He is waiting for Mosley after the Mayorga fight. Clottey injury aint that serious and is expected to fight by the end of the year. If he gets another belt he should get the ring IMO.
Did you really just say that? You are really pitiful with your excuses of why Margarito should fight everyone in the world except Paul. That is utterly ridiculous!
