Golden Boy has 3 Fighters Ready for "Most Feared Fighter" Margarito
there has been a hearty dose of bluster from the camp of WBO welterweight champion Antonio Margarito, claiming that he is the ‘most feared fighter in boxing’, and that no one is willing to fight him.
Golden Boy Promotions has the solution to Mr. Margarito’s problem in securing an opponent for a fight this year – in fact, it has three solutions in pound for pound superstar Winky Wright, former junior middleweight champion Kassim Ouma, and rising star Ishe Smith, all of whom are willing to battle Margarito at a moment’s notice.

Williams (I REALLY hope this December fight on Showtime is with Williams)
Collazo
Quintana
Ouma
Smith
Wright
That's 6 people who say they're willing to take on Margarito and I haven't heard a peep out of Arum or Margarito about any of them. Hmmm.

I reckon Ishe could pull off a big upset. He's pretty slick. Remember how he schooled David Estrada, certainly beat him more convincingly than Cintron did. Plus he handled Bonsante with ease, a man capable of fighting Alan Green at super middle weight.
He's a good fighter and I wouldn't be suprised if he could tame Margarito and run out a UD.

Just because he was capable of fighting him.. did not mean he stood a chance. Im pretty sure everyone expected that result.

No all I'm saying is Ishe could hold his own against middleweights as evidenced on the Contender so at 147 lb Margarito would not necessarily be able to overwhelm him. If he couldn't and it came down to boxing ability you would have to give Ishe a hell of a chance, as he is a very slick boxer.
Could be kind of like a Chavez Taylor or Karmazin Spinks kind of fight.

Ain't gonna happen. Soon as someone steps to Margarito he says 'Talk to Bob Arum, if it doesn't happen its your fault." ::**
Re: Golden Boy has 3 Fighters Ready for "Most Feared Fighter" Margarito
Ishe & Ouma would defeat Margarito, Margarito is a soilid guy but I feel Smith is to good for him as is Ouma!!!
Re: Golden Boy has 3 Fighters Ready for "Most Feared Fighter" Margarito
HAHA this is funny. People think that margarito would ko floyd yet when ishe smith is mentioned some people actually think he would beat margarito. I just think this shows that the margarito beating floyd myth exists because people dont like floyd and want him to get beat. Margarito is too slow ok people, floyd would pound him into the ground. Who cares about his power....zab had power, castillo had power,corrales had power, gatti had power(yeah i see this going like that fight). I think floyd would beat margarito down like he did to gatti.

I'd see it going like the Jesus Chavez fight, tough guy but just not good enough
Re: Golden Boy has 3 Fighters Ready for "Most Feared Fighter" Margarito
Magorito needs to fight any of those guys. He needs to get in with some respectable opponents so that way when he starts calling people out then he has more credit to his name.
