Or actually it must be that its good boxing business to turn down $8 million to fight a nobody in order to fight, Judah or Baldomir for $3 to $5 million.

Anybody know what he make to fight Spinks? No way will it be $8 million.

The sadder thing is that Margarito isn't making 8 million to fight Clottey either.

I love Margarito, but I'm starting to really dislike Arum, he can make bigger fights happen if he focused on more then Floyd but he seems obsessed that the only big fight he'd let Tony get or that he'd work to get is a fight with Floyd. Why cant he let Margarito build a legacy off of fighting everyone else instead of wanting to put one name on his record and call it a legacy, it didn't work with Rahman and it didn't work with Tarver. Arum needs to stop messing around and let Tony fight the up and comers and good fighters instead of focusing only on PBF.
I think Arum realizes that Margarito isn't the "monster" his groupies say he is. He knows Margarito losses against decent fighters. So he's trying to cash him out with a Mayweather fight.
well put.....have a cc

if mayweather and margarito fight, floyd will have 8 mil and another bruseles on his record

if he beats spinks, then he makes something like 5mil plus another world title in yet another weight class

if he beats baldomir, then hes 100% the man at welter (and still gets like 5-6 million)

tough decision
