    Cotto vs Margarito wouldn't have been as big as it was if Floyd wasn't on the scene, neither would any fighters involving Pacquiao ... without the retirement, that immediate fight between Pac and DLH wouldn't have been relevant ... the goes for Pac vs Hatton ... both of whom were held back from their losses to PBF ...

    Mosley vs Margarito wouldn't have made a difference ...

    And the rise of Andre Berto wouldn't have happened because Floyd had to vacate that title ...

    You guys don't understand ... with him vacating the IBF and WBC titles openned the door for guys like Kermit Cintron, Antonio Margarito, Andre Berto, Manny Pacquiao, Ricky Hatton, and Victor Ortiz ...

    He open'd the door for many fighters to move up in ranks ... hate it or not ... its what real.

    And to be honest no PPV event since DLH vs Mayweather ... put altogether has yet to come close to those numbers.

    Thats a fact for your ass !!

    There's a problem with Juan Manuel Marquez jumping to welterweight, when it wasn't a problem for guys like Pernell Whitaker, Shane Mosley, Roberto Duran, Vinny Paz, Oscar DLH, and Manny Pacquiao ... thats ridiculous ...

    Floyd had nothing to do with Cotto vs margarito...except that he clearly ducked both.

    That fight wouldn't have been as huge had Floyd not vacated that legitimized Welterweight title.
