Margarito-phobia...is it real...or is Bob Arum a tightwad?

[B@rr3r@]

I have no video of the Tony-Oscar sparring but I have heard it from a variety of sources so I believe it to be true. Also,I disagree,it's not entirely Margarito's fault that not many people want to fight him and he has beaten everyone pu in front of him AND,is WBO champ and has done more than any of Floyds opponents going back to JLC to justify a title shot. Half of Floyd's last opponents were coming off losses.

So you dont know if it actually true, its just on the grapevine?


No he hasnt beaten everyone put in front of him, be cause he wouldnt have lost 4 fights, early in his career or not

Floyd has beaten everyone put in front of him.

WBO is not a great level championship, the lowest of the four recognized....

I.e the 0 on his record

The people flloyd have fought talent wise, all margaritos opponents wouldnt live with including kermit because zab would destroy him

Zab-g;ass chin. Cintron-more power than ANYONE Zab has faced,1 punch KO power,so that theory goes out of the window. Margarito lost twice as a teenager and twice on cuts(1 points,was winning by 1 round by nearly all who saw the fight.)No it's not "just on the grapevine",there was a short artcile about it too,can't remember where though and it was a while ago and Tony and Oscar definitely sparred,I've heard announcers mention that.All the belts are a load of crap,who are you to say which is better than the others? It's nothing to do with whether Margarito's opponents couldn't live with,Margarito himself would KO anyone Floyd has faced since JLC.And Margarito has beaten everyone in front of him since he has been after Floyd.

Ha, come on Game, even WBO is the lowest recognized of the belts.

And Game I am not a Floyd fan, I hate the bloke, but Tony just wouldnt live with him

Kermit beat Zab?

Dont make me laugh, Zab would destroy him, Zab would destroy Margarito,

It doesnt matter hbow he lost either, a loss is a loss, thats why he has 4 of them, if they were cuts so what, he cuts easy, and what would mayweather do, destroy his face with his pun ches run off and Tony would be walking round like the Lurch that he is.

I like Tony, hes entertaining to watch, but he wouldnt live with Floyd.


And i am not anyone to say WBO is the lowest recognized belt, but when Promoters of Hatton and even Floyd himself said it, you do start to wonder....

[Majesty]

Me, personally. I don't see what the big deal is. He is a banger who only fights other bangers, he fights a boxer and he as the banger will be the one screwed.

You are seriously kidding yourself if you think Zab can beat Tony.And wow,Floyd and Hatton's promoters say it is the lowest,maybe because Tony called out both and they both don't want to fight so Hatton gets the WBA title(didn't even know there was 1) and Floyd's team takes on a Zab who had lost 3 of 6?!And he's P4P number 1?!And nooo,it took at least 8 headbutts in the 2nd TSantos fight to cut him.....

You are saying this from what you have seen,but you really think most of the respected writers who have been fans of the sport for over 20 plus years would rate Tony so highly if he was just a useless banger. Doug Fischer,who saw Tony sparr said he was very adept at cutting off the ring,he can use the jab,and he would crush Floyd's body. Floyd has been nowhere near as fast as he was at 140 and why do you think he has taken so long to accept an "Easy" $8million? It looks pathetic on Floyd's part now because there is no one else to fight:No Oscar,No Shane,Vargas camp have openly stated that they are interested in fighting PBF....sooooo why the reluctance to take what is the biggest payday bar Oscar?

You only tell us what epople say Game, you say these things have happened yet have no videos to show us.


I have watched Tony alot and I see nothing in him to see he would touch Flloyd.
