Which of these 3 fights will have more substance than hype?

[frozensolid_702]

Leonard was still afraid of Duran. He got his butt kicked too. Credit to him for facing his fears. Floyd is afraid of Tony and that is plain and simple. Watch how floyd turns into porky pig everytime Tony's name was mentioned to him. He never knew what to say. The YouTube videos don't lie. I know you have seen them so you can't deny it. Sugar Ray Leonard did not fight Duran in the second fight. He ran so much that Duran just said screw this. Ray don't want to fight, he want's to run. Duran did not get beat up. Sure they fought again for a third time like ten years later and Ray won.

I just find it hard to believe Mayweather would be scared of someone who had no wins and best name on his record was Daniel Santos and he lost that fight Mayweather fought Corrales who was big and a strong puncher plus undefeated why would he fear Margarito maybe he didn't say anything when Tony's name was mentioned because he wasn't worth it ?? and im not trying to diss Margarito but im just saying he was not worthy of his shot and if Mayweather would have fought Tony all we would of heard was Margarito hadn't fought anyone he was overrated ect Mayweather had nothing to gain beating Margarito what so ever except pleasing the Margarito fans but thats worth jack S***.

As for Leonard he boxed beautifully in the rematch with Duran combination's, footwork, ect Duran just got frustrated because he was getting his ear's boxed off simple as Duran was never a great fighter when someone boxed him from outside remember Kirkland Laing gave Duran a boxing lesson.

ICE COLD, I will agree that Margarito wasn't worthy of a shot at Mayweather at the time, but it's clear Floyd was afraid of Margarito. Antonio is an imposing physical presence, perhaps the most imposing in the welterweight division. Regardless of who Antonio has beaten or not, his constant pressure and power spooked Floyd. I mean, Floyd turned down 8 MILLION to fight him. At the time, that was the biggest purse Floyd was ever offered!!

Exactly. Ice misses the point..cue "who did Margarito beat,what had he done etc etc"

Well who had he beaten ??

Well i think Mayweather has took right path don't you ?? he fought Oscar and the fight was huge probably one of the most anticipated fights since Tyson vs Lewis and is now fighting Hatton in huge fight Margarito did not deserve the fight vs Mayweather and i would have been surprised if Arum allowed Margarito to fight Mayweather by offering Mayweather 8 million dollars because not only would Mayweather have gave Margarito a boxing lesson he would of ended Arum's hype machine.

Oh and by the way Gamo im not hater of Margarito im actually fan of his style and was rooting for him vs Williams.

There was a career high payday for Mayweather on the table. Saying Margarito did not deserve the fight doesn't make sense for a guy who only cares about making $$$$. It if makes dollars,it makes sense,that's one of his favourite sayings...

The same could be said about Zab and Mitchell. Who had they beaten? Why did Mayweather fight them?

1.) In case you forgot, Mayweather made the same amount of money fighting the linear welterweight champion (Baldomir) as he would have for fighting Margarito. So I guess even you can see that it did in fact make $$$$ and even more sense

2.) Sharmba was #2 southpaw in welterweight division at the time Mayweather fought him (possible tune-up for southpaw, linear welterweight champion at the time, Zab Judah??) and was also Mayweather's first fight at welterweight (a division that all of the haters were saying Mayweather wouldn't be able to handle at the time)

3.) Mayweather vs. Judah was signed before Zab fought Baldomir and Zab was undisputed welterweight champion of the world and had all major belts. Judah was also Ring Magazine welterweight champion at the time. Mayweather fought Zab anyways, and in his next fight went on to fight Baldomir.










































































I've checked you on these issues many times in the past, Gamo. You know better
Please don't turn into one of those weak a** posters that gets corrected with facts, then goes on to other threads and posts the same nonsense, praying that the person who checked him doesn't catch him on the other thread.



C'mon, Gamo. Even you are above that
