    Wait, that seems kind of silly. I don't grant much accomplishment to TB beating up an elderly Casa, but to suggest that one of the best fighters at this moment couldn't take him on without some help from his promoter is pretty lame. Along those same lines, then why pick Casamayor in the first place? He hasn't been relevant in a long time, I doubt casual fans know or care who he is, plus, no one ever really goods against him, and Tim didn't look great, so if he was paid off then how come he made it such an ugly, boring fight?

    Plus, if Arum/Pac/et al wanted to fight Bradley, they really could have just made that fight, it's not like Tim was granted any sort of legitimacy in beating him. Really, what do you think makes more sense? That Casa was paid to take a dive so that TB rep could get a modicum of benefit? Or that Casa is 40, was looking for a paycheck and got beat because TB is good and Casa is waaaayyy past it?

    Another fight that was turned down at 140, Cotto said he wasn't ready for Floyd and Floyd was the one moving up. The only difference with Floyd and Manny's oppenent is that seem to be no catch weights or weight gain limitations in Floyds contracts.

    Was Bradley a Top Rank fighter when he fought that fight. I thought he did sign with Top Rank until right before he got the Pacquioa fight.

    What? A past prime, shop worn, battle scared, old, slow, no desire to fight and should had retired 5 fights ago Casamayor???? You got to be kidding! LMAO! WOW!

    I ask you....Did you watch the fight? How about Casamayor's two fights before Tim's? What a fraud! :dead

    True, Mayweather is clearly shown up for his hypocrisy if he claims he beat Cotto at his comfortable weight after Pac beat him and claiming it the better win because of that. At the same time he degrades his Hatton win and props up Pac's win over Hatton as the greater one. Applies to Marquez aswell, Pac beat him at 130, Mayweather at 147 cheating him on the scales. Mayweather can talk his ****, he can't have his cake and eat it too..this Cotto fight has been good all round to shut the **** up, he's also **** on his own "leftovers" argument taking that fight

    hattons downfall is he has the shortest reach in history
     
  11. all i am saying is atleast he had a knockout even vs a washed up vegetable.
    Cotto is the only fighter in years that floyd faced who had a knockout at the weight he faced his opponent within a year of the bout.
    Hatton 147 vs Floyd - Collazo robbery
    Shane - no fight in 400 + days
    Ortiz - No 147 Ko
    Jmm - never fought 140 let alone 147
    NO WONDER COTTO BEAT up FLOYD

    You do know Hatton had to come down to 147 he is was known to be at up to 180 when walking around.
