Oh Dear, Someone has called Margarito's bluff....
I am fed up with hearing Margarito and his promoter constantly going around demanding fights with the top men and claiming that when they are turned down that its because they are feared. Surely the best way to get these big money fights is to just continuously beat opponents.
Margarito's CV isn't exactly full of big names. I'm sure that his supporters will say that is because the big names don't want to fight him, but why should they, he hasn't proved himself. He needs to fight fighters who used to be at the top and look good or fighters that his current rivals have recently fought and look better than them.
Sure he is a live opponent, but then why would PBF or ODH take a risk fighting him, when they can make a shed load more fighting each other. For them there is no upside in fighting Margarito.
If Margarito gets the fight that he's clamouring for and gets soundly beaten, then he will be soon forgotten and we will all be left wondering what the big deal was about. Margarito has not done anything to prove himself to be in that class.
Now ODH said that they offered him a fight with Winky Wright but Margarito didn't want to know. I'm sure that his camp will say that it was because the offer wasn't good enough, but if they were so sure about their man's ability then it shouldn't be a problem. What better way for Margarito to make his point than to beat Winky Wright. This is the fight that will get him the big money. ODH has also put forward Smith and Omma. Both would add stock to Margarito's claims, and to be fair who will he be fighting instead and for how much?

And im beginning to agree too. We can all accuse Floyd of not fighting A fighters fight in fight out, but at the same time its a much better resume than Margaritos...
Re: Oh Dear, Someone has called Margarito's bluff....
Arum is a hypocrite!!!!!
He says that he tries to get guys to fight Margarito but that they decline
OK. He wants to fight Winky, and Wright says give me more money then the 4 million Arum offered. Arum offers Floyd 8 million and Floyd says know so Arum withdraws everything...why DIDN'T he just offer the 8 million to Wright? ::**

Isn't Wright co-promo-ing with Oscar now? Yep.
Watch how many fighters Arum turns down & uses that excuse with Margarito's best interests in hand.
Total douche bag.
Re: Oh Dear, Someone has called Margarito's bluff....
see Margarito calls people out but if they respond he says to talk to Arum and Arum makes sure he undersells the fighter or something and then get Margarito a nobody and then say that nobody wants to fight him ::**

Again...douche bag.
Re: Oh Dear, Someone has called Margarito's bluff....
It was fine for Margarito to go to 154 to fight a nobody liks Santos, but not to fight Wright. With all Margarito's talk & no action he's beginning to piss me off

your diatribe lacks truth and substance because:
1. not only Margarito supporters but most commentators provide the list of top that are unwilling to fight Margarito such as Mosley, Mayweather, Judah, Baldomir, Winky, Oscar etc….
2. Maragarito Called out Winky first with a fair deal ($4 miilion) and Winky turned it down. http://www.tigerboxing.com/articles/...aid=1001244917 Now the Winky and Oscar team try to save face offer a ridiculously small portion that I don’t recall but much much smaller portion http://www.badlefthook.com/story/2006/7/2/185226/0063 .
3 The only fighters really calling out Margarito are Clottey and Williams but Margarito would be wise to focus on fighting someone with at least a title although he is also after higher ranked Quintana http://www.badlefthook.com/story/2006/7/2/185226/0063

Smoke and mirrors only work for so long. The truth about how overrated Margarito really is, is coming out.

Well the fans all want to see Margarito fight the other welterweight title holders so their backin out speaks much louder than your opinion ever will.

I doubt it. Little by little all these Margarito groupies with atleast some brains will realize there backing a barely B fighter. The real dumb ones will never realize. So go ahead and keep backing.

Actually certain people just know true grit when they see it be it a B boxer (like Pacquiao, Marciano etc......) or not.
