    Arum is the one who protected Cotto from Floyd.

    I agree Floyd probably beats a prime Cotto. But I also agree that Floyd just has too many "what if they did fight" wins.

    “I think Cotto is a good fighter who’s definitely improving. His promotional company has done a good job in getting the right type of fights to increase his visibility. But he’s still not there yet. The numbers don’t lie. If nobody’s watching him as evidenced by the ratings, what makes him important? I’m not saying he’s a bad fighter. He’s a good fighter. But he’s obviously not on Floyd’s level because nobody’s watching.”

    Other excuses.

    1. We won’t do business with Bob Arum again. 2. I’m not going to let boxing retire me, I will retire from boxing, when asked by Larry Merchant on HBO after the Hatton win if he will fight Cotto. 3. Floyd’s bored with boxing. 4. Floyd’s body is breaking down. 5. Cotto is a punching bag and he knows he can’t beat Floyd. 6. Floyd may go to MMA or WWE.

    It didn't prove anything. They never fought so we will never know. Mayweather MAY have beaten Cotto just like Cotto MAY have beaten Mayweather. It's all opinion and we won't ever know.

    I fail to see your logic.

    Floyd could not even stop a really old Shane or an old and fat JMM...what makes you believe Floyd could stop Cotto?

    The last time Floyd fought somebody with a good jab, he barely won.

    Floyd Mayweather Jr.: the king of theoretical match ups.
