    All that...And the fact that Mayweather is just purely physically stronger will play a big role.

    People need to stop equating Pac's win vs Cotto with Mayweather's win over Cotto.

    Cotto weighed-in at 9 lbs heavier against Mayweather...beyond 1 full weight class. Mayweather's win over Cotto much more impressive...you guys want to bring up weight when Pac get's Ktfo by Marquez, and then Marquez loses every round to Marquez. But when it comes to Cotto, "weight? what's that?"

    Pac a great fighter, no doubt....you don't have to be a fan of just one of these guys. But there are clear objective reasons why Mayweather is a 2 to 1 favorite in Vegas


    Yes, Hate on Mayweather's persona / him as a person or whatever..not saying he a cool / great dude.

    But let's look at both fighters objectively.

    Paulie was an elite welterweight at one point...You don't get to that point without that "I'm invincible mentality".

    You can't really hold that against him.

    Pacquiao, Arum, Koncz, HBO heads, and Espinoza have ALL publicly stated that negotiations are on going and happening.

    The only person that has remained silent is Floyd!!!

    Floyd's stunt at the Heats game was simply an orchestrated ACT. A preemptive move so that he can duck the fight and then say that he tried to make the fight when he approached Pac at the game!!!

    That's ALL it was!!!

    Pac cannot negotiate as an individual. And neither can Floyd!!! Floyd CANNOT circumnavigate his contract w/ SHOWTIME.

    The only people Floyd needs to talk to are SHO/Espinoza/Haymon.

    I hear you on being objective, but I'm not sure mayweathers win over cotto was more impressive than pacs. If you want to use weight or size as the discrepancy, how much more did he weigh against pac? I think floyd physically stronger, but it's hard to tell.

    Giving his # to Pac serves ZERO PURPOSE. Besides, didn't he call Pac in 2012 w/ that joke offer?! So didn't he already have his number?!

    :rofl:rofl:rofl

    I hope I am wrong, but watch The Coward pull another duck move.

    Cotto weighed in at 154 against Mayweather

    Cotto weighed in at 145 against Cotto

    Ha... knew it was a significant difference, just looked it up to find the exact difference: 9 lbs sizeable man

    performance vs performance Pac was more impressive...I'm just saying they fought 2 different fighters.

    Everybody knows (well i guess i shouldnt say everybody) Mayweathers win over Cotto was Better then pac's (Like all there common opponets)

    Cotto was 3/4 years years off the bricks, no catch weight, feeling comforatble.

    when Pac fought Cotto he was barely a year off the bricks, catch weight and ducked Mosley to fight Cotto when Cotto was lineal champ!! and thats the truth and Roach even said, talking about a catch weight of 143, Mosley would've died!! What would you do if Mosley KO margarito, your not gonna let your fighter fight That guy, but somehow the little chicken everyone calls Floyd fights him...but hes still a cherry picker...:patsch:patsch

    I hear you. I'm the same way. I get why people hate on Mayweather, but I just look at the fights and realize that all the other things "24/7, burning money, the cars" are just background noise.

    I've argued with him for 2 hours straight explaining how scientifically, Pacquiao could move up weight classes without steroids. Sure, some science may have gone over his head, but he was as stubborn as a wall.

    His defining argument was, "I know my boxing like the back of my hand!!"

    I can't take him seriously. He's shown me too many times on why I can't. You can't argue with him even if you're right.

    2 different fighters for sure, I say it was off the bricks then anything else. Cotto had only one win after he got hit by bricks and it was Clottey which was hella close, hence the reason why Arum/Roach went for Cotto expect for the monster Mosley

    Yea...you can just look at all those Broner-Paulie interactions to realize that Paulie sometimes gets too emotional.

    I always like listening to him though...kind of boxing's answer to the NBA's Charles Barkley.
