Nobody is discrediting AM. We are asking why he isn't fighting Williams. What is anyone taking away from AM? How do you know Floyd's fans are in the minority here on ESB? Your reason isn't why Floyd is in the minority on anything, that's an uneducated guess. Floyd is considered semi-retired. So if there isn't any news about him, his fans don't have too much to say about him. AM was looking for those fights you talk of because he wanted to get paid. Now that AM is the man to you, is he still taking those fights you commended him on that he took in the past? :huh
That isn't true. I don't need to pull out examples from this lengthy thread, we both know I could do it, easily. Margarito is being discredited for not taking on a fighter he has already fought. It's obvious he's a minority. He gets **** on every week. Again, I could get many examples from the last week on ESB of people talking about Floyd Mayweather, even when he isn't relevant to th topic. I'm not going to do it because we both know I can and with relative ease. People need to move on and talk more about teh current crop of Welterweights. I would like to think it wasn educated guess, people resent Floyd because he didn't clear out 147. That's almost a fact. Williams took those fights because he wanted to get paid but he also wanted to be considered the best out there legitimately. Margarito hasn't confirmed who he is fighting yet, everybody is jumping to conclusions. Margarito is a credit to 147.
Paul Williams: Me and my promotor are willing to pay AM 4 mil for a fight at WW. What's it gonna be AM? This was a BS offer ROFL What about Paul Williams & Goofy Goosen... "Why would we want to fight Margarito again we beat him once he is not in our plans" You had your chance you said NO now sit in the corner take a number and wait your turn LOL
quote=selfkill That isn't true. I don't need to pull out examples from this lengthy thread, we both know I could do it, easily. Margarito is being discredited for not taking on a fighter he has already fought. Discredited??? Why would any sane fan discredit AM? People want to see a rematch. It's obvious he's a minority. He gets **** on every week. By who, fans of other boxers...big deal! Again, I could get many examples from the last week on ESB of people talking about Floyd Mayweather, even when he isn't relevant to th topic. I'm not going to do it because we both know I can and with relative ease. People need to move on and talk more about teh current crop of Welterweights. In this thread alone... you said AM is getting discredited. It happens to all fighters. I'm a Floyd fan, and I could care less what you say about the guy, just don't lie about what is said about him. I would like to think it wasn educated guess, people resent Floyd because he didn't clear out 147. That's almost a fact. They don't resent Floyd. They wanted to see Floyd seal his legacy. No one fighter was going to do that for him. Quote: Williams was looking for those fights you talk of because he wanted to get paid.

The underlined in my response was meant to say "AM was looking for those fights" as I edited my own post.
You guys lie, and twist the facts all because you love your fighter lol. Just let us REAL fans know when AM rematches Williams...
When there is an undisputed or lineal champion in the division the rest are paper champions and there has been SIX DIFFERENT unified champions in the divisions(DLH/Mosley/Forrest/Mayorga/Spinks/Judah/Baldomir/Mayweather). Where was Margarito exactly?, oh yes, fighting and defending his paper title. Sorry but if you follow the rules well enough you will realise that Margarito was the paper champion.
How is he looking like Mayweather exactly?, last time I checked Mayweather didn't lose to anyone. Of course for people jumping from WWE/UFC to boxing you will count hype and bull**** trash talking as a win for Margarito. Here's bad news for you, in your dreams. Margarito wasn't his mandatory nor did he have a single major win for anyone with brains to consider fighting him, ever wondered why everyone has been calling out Margarito lately?, he got one major win and FINALLY.
Mayweather fans don't really hate him, they hate the ******s surrounding him. :deal The same ******s crying about the one-sided ass kicking Mayweather delivered to different Mexican "gladiators". I actually like and appreciate Margarito and only wish him the best current and when he retires, but the ******s surrounding him need to learn how to respect other greats and if they have no idea how there are facts surrounding Margarito FAR worse than the fighters they constantly insult, it's only fair to throw some back.
A career high payday in $4million, something Margarito won't make in his next TWO fights against Mosley and Cotto, isn't exactly ****ing "his self" over, it's Margarito who ****ed his self over by not accepting it and we all know why.
