He deserves a shot, I;'ve always said that. And, for the record, I'm not racist{that's funny}. Chico has gotten better with time. I was speaking about times in their careers, Chico and Tony resemble each other. They fight nothing alike now, but Chico did used to fight like Tony, as far as volume punching, and stalking.You must have mistaken me about Tony not deserving a shot. All other top welters have recent losses besides Tony, so who else deserves a shot? I've seen all of those fights with Tony that you mentioned. I never said Tony and Chico are the same, I said Tony reminds me of him. Ther is a difference, Earth to Gyrokai. Ha Ha! And I do agree with Chico should be fighting at a bigger weight. He looked like he had aids at 130. And, he don't look much better now. Yes, Tony uses angles more than Chico ever did, and boxes more. I simply based the comparrison on volume punching{past or present}, and stalking. Ease up killer! We both know you don't like my boy, and I think he'll beat your boy. ;)Quote:

Again, I don't think they are the same fighter, but I've seen alot of both, and there are some, not alot, but some similarities. I think tony is tougher, but Chico has achieved more, and fought as good of competition as anyone.Quote:

You know for sure, that I'm in agreement. I've been saying that all along.Quote:

yea right, because we allll no Mayweather depends solely depends on his power and has no defense or boxing ability ;D
Rocky Marciano and Manny Pacquiao to name just a few threw alot of wide looping shots which were/are often considered sloppy but they still kicked everbodies butts; didn't they?
These cronies who say that Margarito is not worthy are all Pretty boy propagandists.
That's funny. Tony may be deserving, but I can't see him beating Floyd. Even if I hated Floyd, and bowed down to Tony, I wouldn't want Tony to fight him.Quote:

The game, you do know alot of a boxers money also comes from PPV RIGHT???? That 5 million for fighting Judah didn't include revenue generated from PPV, and the fact is that alot of people bought that fight... About 10 times as many as would pay to see Floyd beat Margarito. PLus Floyd gained alot more recognition in beating Zab because people know who he was... Remember it doesn't matter to a boxer how much the fans know about boxing, "casual" fans pay the same amount to watch the fight as we do, and what difference does that make to Floyd. Im just saying that I guarentee Floyd made alot more money fighting Zab then he would Margarito. That's the reason Arum is trying to go out on a limb and offer Floyd such a high purse, because it probably won't sell many PPVS. And Arum knows that, in fact I would be surprised if he didn't lose money, should the fight happen. Margarito does not bring 8 million dollar purses just yet.
It's absurd you're allowed to choose who you fight
Especially someone like Floyd who isn't a huge crowd pleaser, walking around demanding millions when alot of people have no idea who he is. But everyone knows Gatti - even though PBF slaughtered him
If an athlete is gonna get paid millions he better be exciting, never playing it safe putting everything on the line. I'm a huge fan of Floyd's talent but bottom line, he does NOTHING but play it safe, with the fights he chooses and his style of fighting. People like Gatti, Ward, Castilo, Corrales, Barerra, Pac, Morales...These guys are gonna suffer later on in life because they entertained us. They put themselves on the line everytime and deserve those millions( even if MAB and Morales are F****** pricks :) )
You can say he's a smart fighter for never taking chances, and you're right. But it doesn't change the fact he's not earning his millions. And I'm not saying you have to go in there and take punishment to earn that money, just be a man and give it all you got.
Umm... He is earning his millions.... ???
Technically no athelete deserves millions but if you're gonna dish out that cash atleast give it to the fighters who are gonna need that money to pay the gigantic hospital bill that comes along with brain damage O0
but dangerous or not they do what they love and get compensated very well for it
