Does Team Margarito has a valid reason to refuse $4M offer from Team Williams?

[XaduBoxer]

Floyd Mayweather refused an $8M offer to fight Margarito before... I guess Margo can also refuse this smaller offer in return...

Margarito is finally in the spotlight, why fight the one current Welterweight that has the best chance of beating him. Makes sense for Margarito to try abd cash in on his new found fame before he chances a loss against Williams.
If not ODLH he can probably get 4 million or more fighting guys like Mosely Cotto II Clottey II or Judah and all would be much less of a threat.

Yeah, Margo can start acting like Mayweather now that he's already in the spotlight...

I dont think that fighting guys like Mosely, Clottey or Cotto agains are soft options. They are definitely the smarter options IMO.

I mean Margo can start choosing/picking fights to his liking. I consider him and Paul Williams as the man right now at welter with Clottey at close 2nd.

How many times do I have to explain this... Mayweather excepted a $8M offer to fight Baldomir for the unified welterweight belt, Margo had no credibility at that point.

You'll never convince some ppl. They believe what they wanna believe.

[XaduBoxer]

For sure, a $4M or more offer from other fighters will be valid enough for Margo to decline the Team Williams' offer... More money and less risks...

To some's dismay.......Margarito is now a Shot caller.If DelaHoya sweepstakes do not come about,I have no doubt he will look forward to the Williams rematch.Welters are frigging stacked with good fights coming

You know the saying, "If it don't make dollars, it don't make sense." Fans would want to see it, but we aren't what they count on for PPV.

That said, I think Margie's pride makes the re-match, and I'm kind of up in the air on how I think it goes. If Margie gets of early he could get the decision, but I don't see a KO either way. Paul seems to have pretty good beard.

Why is no-one mentioning Cotto Rematch...

[Master]

Because after the half way point it became a one sided beating.

and the other half it was Cotto making Margarito look silly.

Maybe Margarito wont break Cottos nose this time...

[ssss]

To be honest and i am Antonio Margarito fan but i also thought Bob Arum's offer of 8 million dollar was BS.......

Antonio Margarito wasn't a name at that point so i find it hard to believe the 8 million dollar offer if im honest......

Someone just mentioned well maybe Antonio Margarito won't break Miguel Cotto's nose this time ? what a silly comment no offense here but in my opinion your making it sound like it was some sort of freak accident........

Antonio Margarito threw a punch it connected on Miguel Cotto's nose it broke it end of.........

Juan Manuel Marquez had a bad broken nose against Manny Pacquiao in there 1st fight in the 1st round but he still fought on without tiring late.......

But regardless i think it was more to do with Antonio Margarito's constant pressure and body shots.

I rather see ODLH vs Mayweather which was way more competitive that ended up in a questionable split-decision than Cotto vs Margarito II. Both fought cautiously. ODLH vs Mayweather was far from being a complete destruction and punishment of ODLH like many in here say. Both came out clean. If you want to talk about complete destruction and punishment then watch Margarito vs Cotto.

and the other half it was Cotto making Margarito look silly.

I don't think so. The first half Margarito still made Cotto look silly as he kept walking through his "powerful punches" with ease not even breaking a sweat. I see it as a bit humiliating for a guy that is known for his KO power to suddenly face a guy who walks through those punches with no problem. Margarito made Cotto look silly before and after he ran out of gas.
