Mayweather and Ellerbe: Top Rank refused to put Cotto in there with Floyd

Is that the best you can come back with?

If so then I accept your surrender...

 

First off, Cotto did *not* BEAT Mosley. Cotto got the decision in a fight where plenty of people thought he LOST. I recall Shane had Cotto running for dear life in the late rounds.

Second, why wasn't this fight made @ 140 when Floyd initially called out Cotto? Wasn't Cotto a belt holder @ 140 even before Floyd moved up into the division?

 

Did they leave out Jr missed Paul Williams when he was hot ? Williams had to Jump two division to take on Winky and Sergio.

 

I am biased I had Cotto winning but everybody here watching had Mosley winning based on what you said and these are Latinos.

Why the Floyd fight with Cotto didnt happen at 140 really simple Miguel said he wasnt ready for that fight, As did Ricky Hatton who was the champ which is why we got Gatti and a few lesser fights at 140 because the champions there were afraid to fight Floyd

 

Ok so then exactly who ducked who?

 

Floyd ducked Margarito and thats about it:deal well Manny pacquiao but thats up for debate it depends on how you look at that really

 

All you said was Cotto will never be ready for Floyd. That's irrelvent to the topic clown.atsch

Like I said, you aren't serious. You can't even distinguish what the point was I'm sure. Like with most Floyd fanboys here, went right over your head.

 

atschYou keep asking the same question moron. Cotto, when at 140, was still working his way up. A fight w/ Floyd made a ton more sense at 147.

 

It doesnt matter to them which weight class he was at because to them no version of anybody can possibly touch Floyd, thats how they live with the JMM mismatch.

 

Of course. Most of them completely excuse Floyd for ****ing JMM over on the weight issue because "Floyd beats JMM at any weight!" atsch


Yeah, that excuses it.

 

a blog told you that? riggghhhhhht.

come on people use some common sense here.

 

There is no planet on which Cotto would have done anything but absorb Mayweather's punches. Mayweather is a stylistic nightmare for Cotto. I respect Cotto but he has never been a legitimate linear champion and with the light fading it's likely he never will be. At no point has Arum been interested in this fight.

 

I just remember Arum saying Cotto wasn't ready..

 

who are these plenty of people? i can recall here in ESB after the fight that it was close but is a clear win for cotto. even mosley himself thinks he did not do enough to beat cotto and he is only asking for a draw in the post fight interview and gave cotto props. cotto was not running for his life, he was boxing off the backfoot for the last couple of rounds and he could have taken 1 of them boxing nicely.

so why would you want floyd to fight a green cotto at 140 when it was the biggets fight in boxing back in 2008? can you please answer what did floyd do instead of fighting cotto?
