    so true, but I think Cotto's diva, A-side pride would never allow him to be on an undercard anymore

    They could call it a co-main event like they did with Garcia vs Matthysse but yeah I doubt it will happen even though it would be great.

    Meanwhile he stinks up the joint any PPV chance he gets. Canelo wants to be the poster boy too since it's "his holiday"

    Never understood Mayweather's obsession with cinco other than the month of May consists of his name:patsch:patsch

    Cotto wants Pac vs Floyd to be made first so then He decides, He don't want to compete with that date with another date June 6 open for him, He is doing the best thing business wise, another thing He is the second choice for Floyd if Pac fight is not made, so that's why He is waiting people saying He is ducking or He is a coward a sure newbies or dummies, you need to be in the sport a know it well not only boxing wise but business wise to understand it. Cotto had fought more dangerous fighters that Canelo for less money He is just doing us a favor in waiting for Pac vs Floyd get made.

    Team Cotto is waiting for Mayweather Pacquaio to either get done or not before deciding on May 2nd date.... he needs to be patient and relax.

    Exactly just people that don't know **** and think this is only put gloves and hit you, what He is doing is great for Pac-Floyd fight Canelo can wait for June He has done nothing for wating that date or dictating terms to Floyd or Cotto. Just wait or fight in june and shut up.

    Boxing fans are a strange bunch. We like to ignore facts a lot of the time when it suits the argument. But fans of other sports seem to understand when intangibles come in to play. Not just fans of a particular team, but even fans of the opposing team acknowledge that certain things played out in their favor to get the win. This is especially apparent when an unseeded team or wild card team gets the win over the ranked or favorite team.

    Boxing is different. There seems to be no "Any Given Sunday" when it comes to boxing. If a guy loses, it is because they just suck. :lol:

    I find that folks create their own system when judging fighters and fights thus developing a church of followers practicing a boxing dogma founded by fighters of the same style, skin color, ethnicity etc etc.... we all know how fickle boxing fans are....some of the opinions you see on here make you wonder if these same vocal dudes would step in the ring with the fighters they chose to call "cowards"

    Im pretty sure Roach would have the ideal game plan and will not let cotto stand in there to let canelo set his feet and tee off.

    the only thing to worry about is the uppercuts.

    cotto wins but i've never said it will be easy. anything can happen.

    its funny when they mention that trout beat cotto and canelo dropped him

    how about cotto raping alfonzo gomez and canelo going life and death with an older version of gomez until a bulllshhiit stoppage?

    don't pretend that never took place lol
