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

[Taeth]

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

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...

[Spicoli]

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.

[killersheep]

I can't see why ODLH would choose Margarito, way to huge a risk for his final fight.

I would rather see Margarito fight Williams for the RING title anyway.

How is it a silly comment you idiot...

Yes Antonio Did throw the punch, yes Antionio did break Cottos nose, yes it did afect him, you try boxing a further 9 rounds with a broken nose and say it doesnt affect you!

I said maybe this time Margo wont Break Cottos nose, and Cotto will be able to breathe better.

Isreal Vazquez broke his nose and had to retire because he couldnt breathe!

there are many different breaks of the nose, some alot worse than others.

I had a broken nose and I didnt even know about it for 2 months!

So if Margarito doesnt break Cottos nose, he will stay in better condition.

And dont give me no bullshit about it not affecting Cotto, his mouth was open the rest of the fight and he was spitting alot of blood out. I have already given credit to Tony for breaking it, as thats what its all about get the advantage over your opponent

but Cotto will fare better next time with the ability to breathe properly

Why is no-one mentioning Cotto Rematch...

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.

Right so being punched in the head numerous times DOESNT make you look silly.

So when Mayweather and Tony finally get it on, and Mayhweather runs off all night punching Margo in his head, and wins a wide UD

Who will look silly then, Mayweather for punching a man who could take them all, or Margo for losing a Wide UD

[Chino]

Mayweather is not known for having KO power in his punches like Cotto. Everybody knows that anyone else would probably go down in the first rounds with Cotto's power punches. To see Cotto punching away only to have Tony walk through his punches with ease made Cotto look silly. Imagine Tyson, in his prime, punching a guy directly to his head many many times only to have him walk through them as if he was being hit with pillows. That would be humiliating. Oh man, it would have been priceless to see Margarito pull off a Mayorga stunt and taunt Cotto making fun of his punches and later have the referee and his corner save Cotto's life.

That is Mayweather's style and he has won like that numerous times so its nothing new really. Mayweather is known for getting on his bycicle to win. Now, Cotto and Margarito are known for the power they pack in their punches and how they can KO a guy with a punch so having someone walk through their punches can make them look silly. Wouldn't you be intimidated to know how you KO guys all the time and suddenly face a guy who walks through your punches? Cotto's fear/intimidation was clear.

I will not refute the fact that Cotto was seriosuly hurt because he was, but to say that he was looking silly for the first half of the fight outboxing a guy that is almost 4 inches taller than him and is naturally bigger is quite impressive. Size does make a difference I just saw the Antonio Margarito fight a while ago and he was struggling against a guy bigger than him in Daniel Santos. Not making excuses by the way just stating the fact.
