Hes been champ. and hasn't really earned a lot of cash.
He waited for Zab & PBF. He also wanted Blado, but Baldo knew his BIG payday was PBF. SSM wasn't ready for him. He just never got it then. Now that hes got the chance to have that BIG fight you think hes gonna loose sight of it? Hell no, hes been waiting for it for years.
Margarito was just there, I do blame him for not beeing busy.
He did look rusty against Clottey amd it showed a lot.
He just needs to tighten up his balls and go out there and fight......

Or do you think he should still fight Paul, then regardless if he wins or looses still fight Cotto?

Then we'd end up with another Zab vs. PBF fight.....



its like goosen said (and as ive been saying forever) and you gotta agree on this one.................

if margarito beats williams (he wont) then that makes him that much more marketable (i.e. larger cut of the purse) for when he steps in the ring with cotto because he will be a world champion.. and if margarito loses (he would, and arum knows it) then williams is the champ and goes on to whip/expose cotto for the overhyped fighter that he is

i wonder if jcc, morales, or barerra ever vacated a title and avoided fighting a solid #1 contender because they felt it was too risky...........

absolutely not, because they had pride and they were warriors, whereas margarito is a coward and has been riding a tidal wave of unwarranted hype that was generated solely by his promoter and now has to be very careful in picking his opponents because he cant back 1% of the smack hes been talking for some time now and cant risk ANOTHER loss because he has his "big" payday (like 1 or 2 million ) fight against another (better) arum fighter



this has all been designed to make cotto look like some world beater (hes not) when he beats margarito, because arum has been ramming this journeymans name down the throats of fans for so long now with the "most feared welterweight" garbage, that cotto is actually going to get some praise (he shouldnt) when he trashes this clown
