    very good response I also can agree with some of your post. I also think that if floyd nolonger has the drive to fight he should quit but I also have to respect that he's not going to fight the very best for next to nothing ether ,because we have to remember that he offered Arum a three fight deal that included Margarito , Cotto and Hatton that Arum would not agree to .

    other then that very good response :good

    To beat Mayweather you need sensible aggression, quick workrate and a good defence. DLH was getting the better of him at 54 until he gased and let his defence go to pot, Castillo was doing something simlar but the lack of defensive skills let him down.

    i also dont think Miguel has the defensive atributes to beat a pot shotter like Mayweather. Cotto will have his moments, where he is agrressive and throwing shots to the body and head, but this will leave him open to counters, I can see PBF picking his way to a UD, with Cotto being stung along the way.

    Still a fight id love to see and a fight that should happen.
