    The great fraud Antonio Margarito of course. People ignore that Floyd said 8 million, Bob said no, Floyd paid 750k to get out of his contract and Bob immediately offered 8 million but with Bob getting rights back. Which is obviously not a real offer but a giant fuck you. People don't keep track of the facts when they don't suit their needs. Instead, Floyd ducked Floyd ducked, logic be damned.

    What people either don't know or just intentionally leave out is that Floyd accepted the Margarito fight.

    The problem was Floyd injured his hand against Judah and told Arum to make the fight happen in the fall of 2006. Arum said no, the fight is happening on August 12th, 2006 because I already have the venue booked. Floyd said no, that's not enough time to heal up and get a proper camp in, so Arum booked the Rahman/Maskaev rematch for that date and the fight fell through.

    Who are the two guys people say Floyd ducked? Margarito is one, and I guess Paul Williams is the other? Both tough guys, but would any of you honestly pick either guy against Floyd? Paul was a beast but had his flaws. Quintana outboxed him at WW.

    There's video of Floyd calling out a ton of guys, including DLH and Mosley while they were in their primes. I actually have an article from 2002 or so where Floyd calls out De La Hoya, even though Floyd was fighting at 130 and DLH was at 154 (Floyd Sr thought his son was crazy and was going to get killed).

    That's a ridiculous post I highly doubt there's any elite fighters that are scared of anyone, they fight for a living none of them are scared. People need to remember boxing is a business and making the most money should be your number 1 priority. I know if I was a boxer I wouldn't give a shit about the fans I would want the most money for putting my life on the line

    Sometimes I think he is, then he picks a guy like Berto to fight and I'm not sure.
    Maybe I'm just too hard on the man, what with me expecting an ATG to always strive to fight the best.
    Cherrypicking is widespread and blatant so it's useless to complain, isn't it?
