    Im just wondering what u guys think.

    obviously if Martinez wins then this doesnt mean anything but if Cotto was to win whch would you rather see??

    Im actually pretty torn on this one. Both were great fights. Maidana did better then Cotto but Mayweather going to 160, which is way out of his league totally, really makes it intresting.

    To me the only thing that could enchance Mayweather's Legacy is to win the MW crown! Theres nothing else he could really do. I have him beteween 20-30 ATG but winning a MW crown could get him in the top 20 even if ts a fighter he already beat because its the lineal crown and Cotto would be champ plan and simple. plus holding 3 lineal titles...Man what a feat!!! Even Mayweather haters would have to give it up.

    Mayweather-Maidana was very excitinig and Maidana, I thought gave Mayweather his closet fight since Castillo so t warrants a rematch IMO.

    SO if u only had these choices for Septemeber 13, Madana 2 at 147, Cotto 2 at 160 which one would you rather see?

    Im gonna pick Cotto for me. if he can beat Martinez, New Trainer, Mayweather is hella small (weight wise) and 160 would be to high for him and MW Crown..Makes me pick the Cotto rematch. :bbb:bbb

    If Cotto is impressive against Sergio and gets the win, Floyd will avoid. And it would be wise of him to do so. A small welter has no business at MW to begin with.
    He would easily beat Quillin though. Maybe he will challenge for that title.

    He will avoid? No way bro! Cotto beating Martinez would create so much buzz that mayweather knows that fight would sell more then the Miadana fight. Maidana can go on and fight Khan, garcia, broner, Thurman and many many others to hype a rematch next year.

    Mayweather would go straight for that title, last thing he could do to enhance his legacy

    Maidana 2. Mayweather winning the MW belt beating Cotto would be a big cherry pick

    Wther u think so or not Cotto would be the MW King of the world! No f's ands or maybe's and Mayweather winning that would mean 3 lineal titles at the same time. how many fighters have done that in history?? 1...2 maybe?

    Thats all it would say in the History books bro, Cherry Pick or not. Its not like He won 12-0 none. good competivive fight

    Yeah thats what would annoy me that it would go down in the records. If Cotto beats Martinez itll be because Martinez is shot and Cotto would be the weakest title holder at mw which is saying something.

    Itd be something akin to Broner beating Malinaggi and claiming he was the WW champ.

    Yeah dude made history! and whos to say Cotto wont do better? Roach giving him a gameplan like Maidana but landing alot more cleaner and using a way better jab. I mean if he can beat a big guy like Martinez then Maybe Roach has done alot better and Cotto is feeling good. Not to mention Cotto would be 165+ with Mayweather probably not even 150 sounds tough even for the great Mayweather

    All ths shot **** is stuip!! Martinez losing to Cotto wouldnt be because he was shot. you sure it wouldnt be because thats the best skllful fighter Martinez has ever fought? Couldnt be because hes never got punched in the body like that before?? Enough of that shot ****. I thought everybody said Cotto was shot??

    And Cotto would still be a WAAAYYYYY Better title holder then Quillin, for sure! So the weakest MW Title holder is a Lie Bro.

    Cotto has done very little above 147, since Margarito he has had few good wins his 154 resume is shallow as hell. P4p Cotto is better but he is shopworn at this stage fighting well above his prime weight class. Quillen may be pretty crap but hes a full MW and probably beats Cotto H2H. Martinez is a small MW himself his skills more than made up for his relatively small size but hes nearly 40, injured, and relies on an athletic movement style which means he could age overnight. Theres and argument that Murray beat him in his backyard. Prime Martinez hammers Cotto but Id be amazed if we see a near prime Martinez vs Cotto.

    I like Cotto but Id prefer to see Mayweather fight Maidana again than Cotto at MW. Cotto was never close to winning vs Mayweather. Mayweather didnt even fight Canelo at the 154 limit. I think Id just hate all the people saying 'all hail Floyd MW king and best ever' when really itd be just opportunistic title grab, similar to Pac beating Margarito for the 154 title just to have the record.
