Antonio Margarito (or a smart Bob Arum) has gone ahead and made the right (safe) career decision by opting to price herself out of a probable career ending fight with Zab "King," Judah. One can't blame Margarito (or Bob Arum, if that's the case) for tucking her tail between her legs and opting to fight people that she's already beat in order to become a so-called "champion." This will ultimately make Lady Margarito more money down the road by setting up some sort of title unification match with Miguel Cotto.
On another note, "King," Judah has recently stated (boxingtalk.com) that he would be happy to fight Miguel Cotto for the same amount of money as Alfonso "Who?," Gomez will recieve. Obviously, Judah is a much better fight than Gomez but you can be certain that Team Cotto (Bob Arum
) wants no part of this fight. What he wants to do is set up a "big," fight with Cotto vs. Margarito so that he can cash out on all of the false hype that he has single handedly been generating for Margarito over the course of the last couple of years.
Keep protecting your fighters Bobby, but it won't be long until they feel the wrath of Mayweather, Judah (he almost had Cotto knocked out, Zab's revenge will be cold and vicious), Williams, and soon to be Berto.
