    I assume this was after the Cotto-Martinez fight? The Cotto rematch is not a very bad fight. It's better than the Maidana fight and most of Floyd's career opponents. It's just that the timing is terrible. After Floyd set himself for an interview in front of television and led the audience to believe that Pacquiao is next after he accepted his challenge, his team is actually trying to snatch Cotto away from a Canelo fight by allegedly offering Cotto a rematch instead of negotiating with Pacquiao's team.

    If they succeded, this would scr ap the two much-awaited fights for next year or at least delay it.

    I am fan of Floyd and Pac. Respect Floyd for his boxing, pure and simple, he is a genius. Pacquiao is one of the best fighting machines ever......both boxers are past their best. The fight should have happened 2009-10 however I still think it would be a top drawer event. I wanna see it...

    I think Roach is punch drunk, emotional and hates the Mayweathers. All of them.

    His temper flares up easily. If he doesn't like you, he would not waste time not throwing some verbal jabs. Btw, what does roach has to do with this thread aside from he is pac and cotto's coach?

    So why Cotto and not Golovkin? He already beat Cotto and we all know that GGG is the man to beat at MW.

    As a Floyd fan, he needs to fight Pac next. If he and Cotto were to both win, I'd have no problem finishing his career against a "Cotto 4.0" for a chance at a middleweight title. But next....he really needs to fight Pacquiao next.

    People had NO ISSUE with May 2nd until Arum said so. Arum had NO ISSUE with Cinco de Mayo when he put Pacquiao on it twice. And if people say that Canelo wasn't around then, to that I say: Arum said it's disrespectful to Mexicans, NOT Canelo.

    Good day, *****es.

    Of course they won't coz Floyd is poaching Canelo's opponent.

    The issue is Floyd fighting Cotto to secure the date.

    And when it's official, you guys would still defend it like you defend the ortiz, gurrrero and maidana fights.
