    main thing is all these people COMPlAINING of the fight not being made aren't thinking Business wise in a whole..

    BY this statement i meen as a fan of both fighters PBF more so then cotto but im also a fan OF BOXING!!!

    SEE the thing that some people don't get (and it's no shame ) IN general this fight being delayed is good in the long run for all parties. AND what i mean by this is

    FOR Cotto POSITIVE things are , HE'll make more money,he'll be facing an older PBF and it's a fight he will get crdit for . this is his career defining fight the older slower mayweather is the better it is for him.

    FOR mayweather< he'll make more money , a win over an undfeated more popular foe and his #1 threat will silence most of his critics.

    AND finally the biggest winner The SPORT OF BOXING THE BIGGER COTTO GETS BEFORE THIS FIGHT THE MORE MAIN STREAM ATTENTION THIS FIGHT WILL GET . THIS COULD REALLY BE THE FIGHT THAT SAVES BOXING AND THIS ONE WOULD BE EXCITING THE STYLE MESH JUST TO GOOD! sO FOR ALL YOU PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT BOXING NOT GETTING MEDIA ATTENTION YOU WANT THE FIGHT TO COOK SLOWLY SO THAT THE SPORT IS ONCE AGAIN THE TALK OF THE TOWN:deal

    Simply put - by the time Mayweather fights Cotto the fight will be twice as big as it ever was and mean twice as much for Mayweather's legacy.

    And then who's the dumb one?

    If the fight never happens, then you can get back to trying to insult me about being a Mayweather fan. :D

    SHUT THE HELL UP PLEASE!!! Floyd NEVERRRRRRRRR wanted a fight with Cotto at 140. He was simply asked about Cotto and he himself said Cotto was "too green" Get your facts straight buddy!!.

    We can say the same for Floyd. While he is popular, he can definitely increase the amount of respect he gets from the fans by

    1) taking real challenges
    2) stop calling himself the GOAT
    3) quit pretending like he is some gangsta when he's not.

    No, most realistically is they weren't ready for Floyd when Floyd mentioned Cotto @ 140. Arum not matching his 23-0 Cotto vs Mayweather @ 140 was NOT only because of money, but because it was still soon. It's only the last year Cotto has really seperated himself from the other contedners.

    And using caps or large letters is just annoying. Doesn't give your post any more weight.
