Antonio Margarito and Bob Arum.............. Running out of excuses

[frozensolid_702]

in this article, you get to read dan goosen saying basically the same things that i have been saying (assuming you read my posts) about margaritos reluctance in defending his cherished wbo title (remember how hes been trying to ram the whole "im a world champion" nonsense down everybodys throats for quite some time now) against the bonified #1 contender, Paul Williams.

well, dan goosen has eliminated all of your excuses http://boxingtalk.com/pag/article11021.html


i remember when margarito was trying to cash out on his 15 minutes of fame by calling out mayweather while Antonio "the tijuana tornado " Margarito was the #2 ranked welterweight (im sure there was some money exchanging hands on that one) and mayweather was the #1 ranked welterweight

mayweather (#1 contender) opted to fight the linear welterweight champion of the world (baldomir) instead of fighting the #2 ranked welterweight (margarito) and made the same money in the process and the margaritites went crazy screaming such nonsense as "Duck!" and "Running!".............. keep in mind mayweather was looking to fight the champ, then unify with OSCAR DELAHOYA at 154. margaritos trying to dump his belt rather than fight the #1 contender, and fight some nobody instead

goosen said it best.............. what happened to the long standing tradition of mexican warriors who never ducked anybody? (or he said something like that)

margarito................... mexico is ashamed of you



let the excuses (and sad clicks) roll in

for the article.... See the problem I have with this is how Tony was insulting Floyd and making claims but then he does the same thing... I mean kinda like how Diego Coralles was calling JLC a disgrace for not making weight and then he does the same to Casamayor.... Tony should say something publicy to exhonerate Floyd, I dont expect an apology but something that says I was a little to hasty in slandering Mayweather and now I am doing the same thing I was trashing Mayweather for... Whats fair is fair and Business is Business Floyd was never in the wrong in the 1st place.....

Fair Play Gamo, I remember a short time ago when all the anti-Mayweather propaganda was blowing up this board over and over, I do believe you were one of the culprits recycling alot of the articles yourself...... I wont fault Tony for making a smart business desicion like Floyd did to set up his future, but I will fault him for shooting off his mouth and now he will have to deal with some scrutiny, it gos with the territory..... I think alot of us Mayweather fans have takin it easy on Tony and utilizing the wait and see approach to if there are any validity to these claims and articles, to the contrary of us Mayweather fans taking a helacious amount of abuse. Floyd couldnt say or do anything without legions of Margarito fans Jumping all in our shite without Mercy...

Not really,I saw Danny G was posting the PBF articles,I don't recall posting one on the same subject. It's nothing like the same $$$ thing,and this is teh last I'll say on it,how are you people going to look when Margarito does fight Williams after Cotto? Honestly,I can't wait to see that and the fact that Floyd is retiring for the reason that at 154,the guys would be too big and 147,TOny will be after him,Cotto too and Williams will be his number 1 contender for the WBC title.

I'm not taking a run at you Bro... But again you were critical of Mayweather... You guys aint looking to good yourself on how your boy is conducting himself these days... I mean why should we believe Margarito is gonna face Williams eventually Floyd said he would fight Tony Eventually too why is he any less believable.... NO ONE is buying into Floyd retireing... this is a friendly convo Gamo no ones attacking you personally just some competitive verbal jousting thats all

[El Gamo]

I know no one's attacking me lol,I've had great debates with most guys here. I just find it funny because Floyd ducked Tony and now at the slightest whim,Tony is "ducking" Williams even though he's fighting a tougher,more proven fighter who is on P4P lists in Cotto and b.}like I said,I want to see Floyd coming back to 147 and fighting these guys but after fighting Judah,Baldo and Mitchell,you really think he wants to fight the Punisher,Tony and Cotto...I doubt it....and I don't care how I look,if Tony fights and beats Cotto,I don't think anyone can say anything really........

And I criticised Floyd because I have never seen such a pussy like reaction after his Baldo fight. He cried like a bitch......and whines like a bitch with Lampley.

It's all very simple. Goosen is offering Margarito a million dollar purse. Margarito has never had a million dollar purse. Margarito has always wanted a million dollar purse. If Margarito does not take it. It's cuz Margarito is scared. It's that simple.

OR.....the Cotto fight offers more prestige,a bigger name,another title and just as much money against a proven fighter!! Why would he fight Cotto, a more dangerous fighter than Williams?! I don't see why he would be scared of Williams....

You make it sound like Cotto-Margarito has already been signed. It has not been. It hasn't even been hyped up yet. And Margarito is the reason why. Cotto has a mandatory coming up. I'm not sure but I believe it's against Oktay Urkal. Margarito mandatory is Paul Williams. The plan is to showcase both on the same card against there mandatories. Building up a potential Cotto-Margarito fight. The problem is Margarito does not seem to want to get in the ring with Williams. Why is that?

Alright so let me get this straight... Cotto has the balls to fight his mandatory Urkal who is a seasoned veteran with 3 losses Vivian Harris 2x and Kosta Tszyu and mind you this is his 2nd Welterweight fight.... But Margarito wont fight his mandatory who is supposedly an UNPROVEN prospect with questionable defense who Tony would have his way with... Dosen't add up to me guys ... Floyd was never Margaritos mandatory as a matter of fact he ranked higher than Margarito

You know this arguement sounds very familiar?
