Cotto should have gave an interview. Didnt expect Mayweather to be the classier guy

    I agree. If it was the other way around there would be about 20 threads drenched with hate for Floyd.

    I was looking forward to hearing what he had to say, it was ashame he acted like that but I won't hold it against him.

    Mayweather was real classy I only wish we could see more of him like that.

    True indeed.


    Since Cotto is so beloved, everyone gives him a free pass because his feelings are hurt. If that had been anyone else, especially Floyd, everyone would have been wanting to crucify him.

    I was thinking that Floyd was a ***** before the fight for saying that he wouldnt do an interview with Merchant and walking straight to the dressing room. Not only did he do the interview but he said he's sorry to Merchant (of course a pr move but still), and it was Cotto who acted like a *****

    Wow am I the only one that thought his ass-kissing was cringeworthy? Even Lampley and Emmanuel were like wtf?

    Agreed. I'm a huge Cotto fan largely due to the humble, classy way he carries himself. I can 100% state that I would have jumped on the Mayweather bashing bandwagon had the roles been reversed on Saturday.

    Converesely, it was taking defeat with class that turned me on Froch. Had Mayweather given a gracious interview after the loss, I would have commended him.

    Did you see his pre fight media interviews ?
    When asked about actual boxing he was happy and polite.

    He also said he is just tired of acting the bad guy.
