Well I saw the Gatti and Baldomir fight (great fight) and after the fight when they interviewd Baldomir he mentioned that he wanted to fight all the top Welter weights. He listed names Hatton, Judah again and Pretty boy Floyd but he never Mentioned Margarito Now can any 1 enlighten me or tell my why? ???
Because Margarito is not the payday of the other guys
Well hes is the 1 who offered Floyd the biggest payday of his carreer so that payday stuff is a bunch of crap excuses excuses ; O0Quote:

Its amazing isnt it, a fighter in the heat of the moment fails to mention a particular fighter and all of a sudden hes ducking him.
CC, exactlly, the guy just got out of a huge fight, and he could only think of the big money fights. To Baldomir's defense, the guy has been toiling away in different countries a la Winky Wright and he has beat Gatti and Judah in consecutive fights. The guy should be making the most money he can while he can, not giving Tony's ass a chance unless they are offering 4 Mil. Tony could easily fight someone else to get some distinction like a Judah, Williams, Collazo, Quintana, hell he could have fought Winky, but he will most likely end up fighting someone not viewed as dangerous because he's doing the same thing Floyd is doing, avoiding danger in the hopes of a big payday. Tony's a fucking bitch ass hypocrite. Go fight Judah, he's desperate, but oh no, Tony has earned a shot at the #1 P4P fighter right? Fuck no he hasn't.Quote:

Holy christ, is is really that hard to understand? I mean if Baldomir wanted to fight Margarito he would have instead of Gatti... why do you think he fought Arturo?? Was it because of Gatti's dominating virtuoso performances of late against Mayweather and Daamgard? No... it's because that way he makes some real money after chasing around prospects in their backyards for nothing and losing many along the way in a long career.. I mean just because he beat Judah and Gatti doesn't change the fact that he was an argentine journeyman for over 10 years... Now he probably doesn't plan on fighting many times again.. In no way am I saying that Baldomir isn't scared of Tony, but anyone who says that he is for sure just because he hasn't called him out is simply not thinking.. Put yourself in his shoes.. The guy has almost 60 fights, and has had very little to show for it up until this fight with Gatti... He made over a million dollars to fight him.. that's 10X more than he made to fight Judah, and way way more then anything he ever made before that. was it because Gatti was a bigger threat who he and everyone else feared? Would you rather have a million dollars for fighting someone you are confident you can handle, or would you take a quarter of that and put your career on the line, so that people would have good things to say about you on a forum, until someone else beats you.
