I doubt it, Bladomir walked through Gatti's shots without blinking and wasn't bothered by Zab Judah who can definitely punch so I don't see why you think he would fall apart against Tony. Baldy has a good chin, and is a reborn fighter now. Honestly him and Margarito would be a war and I'd be rooting for Carlos.
It's funny one guy who beat the linear champ and the number one in the division, then beat the fan's favourite warrior of the past 10 years gets no respect, whilst another guy whose biggest win is against some dude who shares his name with a frog on the muppet show, who has not beaten a single recognised fighter is regarded as the most dangerous man on the planet. ??? ::**
Weak argument as Baldo would get swamped by Margarito who is a natural WW,and no matter how good your chin is,if your standing in front of someone who throws 100 plus punches a round,all power punches,you are going to get hurt.Zab was in no way shape or form number 1 in the division,there are at least 3,possibly 4 guys that could beat him and who the hell cares if someone is fan favourite? That meakes the win bigger?Again you dismiss the list which I stated,overall Margarito has fought far far better competition than Baldo. If a guy like Badlo,with 12 kos,can have Zab on queer street and stop Gatti,someone with Cintron's power would annihilate them!
As for your other points,why is Baldo never mentioning Tony's name? I'll tell you why.A few years ago(I think),they sparred together and Baldo said Tony was very very powerful and that he had zero interest in fighting him.He respects Margarito which can be seen when asked who would win,Tony or Floyd,he replied in a flash,Tony.

Sorry Game but your history is poor. Before Baldomir beat Judah, he was regarded as the man to beat at welterweight, the undisputed champion of the division. That was why it was going to be a mega fight when Floyd fought him.
You are arguing retrospectively as so many people on here do.
It's a fact that Tony hasn't beaten any big name fighters whilst Baldomir has beaten the undisputed welterweight champion of the world and a two time world champ in Arturo Gatti.
A quick look at Margarito's record reveals nothing much really. You mentioned Kyvelos, well just looked at him and he was knocked out in 4 by the ferocious Cosme Riveria in his next fight after Margarito, a fighter who gave Zab so much trouble ::**
Antonio Diaz was stopped in 6 by Mosely, whilst Danny Perez was beaten by Jesse Brinkely :laugh:
As I said before Gomez has 11 losses and has been knocked out now 6 times so hardly a big win, Martinez is unbeaten since but be honest have you ever heard of ANY of his opponents? I just checked, one was rated 814th in the world, hardly any of them have winning records and I didn't see a single fighter ranked in the top 100.
Re: 7 fighters to track for the rest of 2006
What is so poor about my history?I used facts ::**I said before Judah was beaten by Badlo that he was not the best in the division,I mentioned this on numerous occasions. The mega fight was because the attendance,fans there etc etc. Who actually thought Judah would win? You are looking at records now.....when Margarito fought those guys,they were unbeaten etc etc seen as dangerous.....which is what I stated.
Just because someone has all the belts does not make him the best in the division..Your argument has no purpose,to say Margarito has not fought anyone after I have stated the dangermen he has beaten is weak.....
Re: 7 fighters to track for the rest of 2006
I have only seen Baldomir fight twice, but from what I saw to hurt the guy you have to hit him with a brick.
