If PBF can beat Hatton, ODLH, Mosley & Winky I can assure people will give him his dues and he would have earned his respect & place in boxing as probably the best ever. I repeat IF......

Margarito's just a contender nothing more, he's done nothing to earn the title peoples champ. He never fought any of the former champions just sat in the background calling people out.Originally Posted by maracho
Forrest won the vacant championship by beating Mosley. Margarito never did anything to get Mosley in the ring back then after Mosley lost twice!
Mayorga won the championship by KOing Forrest. Margarito never got Forrest in the ring after he lost twice.
Spinks won the championship by defeating Mayorga. Now Margarito was calling out Mayorga when he was champ but once he lost instead of trying to get the former champ in the ring once again he did nothing.
Judah won the championship from Spinks & again did Margarito try to fight Spinks... no.
Baldomir won the championship from Judah, did Margarito try to get Judah... no.
That's 4 ex champions who Margarito could have faced to atleast desreve some sorta standing but he fought none of them. Now when Floyd beats Baldomir will Margarito fight Baldomir... no. Margarito's only a contender he'll get his shot one day, but it will only be when he has earned it!!!

Margarito is a big guy for welter but what has he honestly done? Beat Cintron? What had Cintron done?
Hmm. Well, satire isn't meant to be agreed with or disagreed with. You're supposed to just sort of admire it.Originally Posted by CutMeMicK
If its facts you want to deal with, then on that rather mundane <yawn> level I tend to agree with you.

No I am just saying that Oscar was not honest when he told the world that he wanted Winky and ishe to fight Margarito which is especially evident from who Ishe fought tonight--see today’s Saddo headline “It’s a Mora, Gomez, Ishe Weekend: Bona fide contenders or over hyped boxing pretenders.Originally Posted by Majesty
Very few would blame Margarito for not wanting sloppy seconds and most with common sence understand why he wants to unify championships--fame and $$$$, etc...Originally Posted by galaxy76
Just because Floyed fights guys that just got blasted doesn't mean diddly except bad business in my opinion and according to several hundred blogs.

Bro Mosley was ranked #1 after his 2 loses, so was Forrest, & so was Mayorga & Judah after the 1st lose to Spinks. #1's not sloppy bro. Margarito just doesn't wanna fight anyone decent to prove his worth, just expects everything to be handed to him.Originally Posted by maracho
Judah/ Mayweather did well money wise even though Judah had lost. Now Floyd's fighting the champion not a contender like Margarito.

Rankings are all rigged by Oscar and Don in my opinion and the rankings that you insist to go by are just a magazine's oppinion. As promoters, HBO and Showtime realize that most fans only hear a breif smatter of a "particular" ranking when they are announced prior to a fight; thus they also use tactics to protect their fattened cows because its business sence that once a boxer is thouroughly beaten his marketability plummets like lead, bro.Originally Posted by galaxy76
Out of all the organizations,isn't the Ring,the only one which has ACTUALLY been caught with dodgy rankings?Originally Posted by maracho
Margarito has beaten more top 10 contenders than ANYONE else at WW,so when people say he has done nothing,that has no basis on fact.And all that BS about being linear champ and him not challenging for it,the linear champ always ducks him,Zab,Mayorga,Forrest,Baldozar etc etc. AND WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU WANT TO FIGHT PEOPLE THAT HAVE LOST?? If Tony beat all those people someone mentioned,the ex champs,EVERYONE would just say,oh,he beat a losre,someone coming off a loss(sounds familiar!). Fact is TONy has decent names on his record and if he beats Clottey and one more,he has the right to call out anyone else he wants.
Couldn't have said better myself my fellow fan in the know.Originally Posted by El Phenomena

Bro Dodge rankings, come on guys all the alpabet idiots have done worse. That scandle was over 30 years ago, the Ring has changed ownership three times since then. Trying to blame the current Ring staff with the sins of the past is a lot like blaming the current Chicago White Sox for the fixing of the 1919 World Series - unreasonable & unfair.Originally Posted by maracho
Don't forget that The Ring has been awarding championship belt since 1922 & that the Ring invented the concept of boxing rankings. That's a fact, there were no ratings before The Ring pioneered the idea.
If Margarito had fought one of the guys I mentioned I'd give him his props. You say why should he fight a loser but the fact is he fought Six Heads after Mayorga already destroyed him & that fight was got him a heap of expossure! Plus he never tried to fight these guys before they were champ he just f*cked around.
