A rebuttal to what? You admitting I was right? Nah, it ends right there
Your reading comprehension is.on @Master Teacher level breh :mjlol:

i said He could've made more money fighting Margarito, Cotto, or Shane back in 07-08 after he fought Oscar, but instead of negotiating he chose to retire for two years...came back two years later and fought a nikka moving up from featherweight and came in heavy :stopitslime:

No, he didn't retire after Oscar, he fought Hatton and made $20m, more than any of those guys you mentioned.

He officially retired after Oscar.. press conference and everything. Slithered back out real quick like a snake in the grass to fight a lesser opponent, when he could've made $20 million or more to face the guys I named(cotto/Marg/Shane)

He fought Hatton after Oscar just a few months later. For $20m. And according to Bob Arum, he would only get $7m for those fighters you mentioned.

Yea, Bob said that before the Oscar fight where his highest ppv were around 300k..
475K, I think. But yes, he did. Anyway, that's irrelevant. When Bob said that doesn't change the market value of a 2007 Margarito and 2007 Ricky Hatton. It's no contest. BTW that same Arum said Floyd was willing to fight all those guys.

Floyd never made anything above 400k in ppv before Oscar and its not irrelevant. $7-8 million guaranteed is an astronomical amount of money for a nikka who cant sell above 400k...
Floyd/Hatton didn't even do a million ppv buys in the US.. Are you really trying to convince me Floydie/Margerito couldn't buss over a million ppv buys after Margs slayed Cotto??.. what the fukk did hatton accomplish at 147 before Floydie fought him??

if $7-8m is astronomical for someone who can't sell above 400K then I totally understand why he took $20m instead.
