1- Margarito is not a PPV draw. That would only be an HBO Boxing after dark fight. Not enough money for Floyd.

2- When Oscar handles Mayorga, he and PBF have a date in September for some serious PPV dollars.

The bottom line is dollars and cents. PBF cant make much against a fighter who, outside of us die hard fans, is not very popular with the average sports fan. A Mosley fight is a PPV. A Hatton fight is a PPV. Even a Judah rematch (please, no!) is a PPV. A Margarito fight is not, and PPV is where the money is.
First off number 2 ain't gonna happen, secondly yes it can be a PPV. Let Margarito beat the winner of Baldomir vs Gatti, then Floyd could try to unify the titles against Margarito and it would be a big event. Believe me if Jones(God bless him) vs Gonzalez was a PPV, Margarito vs Floyd could also be one.
Roy Jones fought Gonzales on HBO it wasn't PPV...
