    I'm the guy that wants him to fight Cotto. Pac is no damn bigger than JMM and that will be the excuse as soon as Floyd beats him. Cotto on the other hand is a legit WW in his prime who kicked Shane's ass and beat Clottey with one eye. That's the only fight that makes any sense for Floyd in my eyes. I sure as Hell didn't buy that JMM fight. Floyd was just trying to make sure he didn't hurt his hands in that exhibition.

    well, if Cotto loses, there are still a few of fighters that is a legit opponent for Floyd.

    Berto and Margo for example.

    Does it matter really, if Pacman wins then he is better than Cotto, therefor he has better chances against Floyd than Cotto would have, think about it. Its simple really.

    Styles make fights. Cotto beat Mosley, who stopped Margarito , who stopped Cotto. Who's the best there?

    I want Cotto to win because I think negotiations woul be smoother, because with the **** Roach's been tlkin it appears as if he actually thinks Pac is better than he is.

    Besides, Cotto is what some call a real WW so it would put an end to the theory that Floyd doesnt want to face real WW's

    If Cotto loses I would rather see Floyd fight Shane more than anybody else but not if Cotto wins. Floyd/Cotto is the BEST fight to be made. I don't care about money or any of that other bull****. I gotta pay to see them. They ain't putting money in my pocket.

    Man they will still say Pac is too small even if he beats Cotto or they will say Cotto aint the same after the Marg fight if Floyd beats him. They always find something negative to say. Floyd and Roy Jones could never do enough.

    well if pac wins over cotto at 145, that means pac can handle the weight and has the power to win over big guys so pac should meet floyd at 147 to prove he really is a ww champ not to meet at 145 again...

    I hear what your saying but the Mayweather V Pac dream match was to settle who truly is the p4p number 1 in the world.

    However if Pac beats Cotto who is arguably the best Welterweight out there. Remember he beat Mosley, Quintana and he beat Clottey that's 3 top welterweights in the record books like it or not. His only loss was to a man who may have had loaded gloves, who knows?

    But if Pac beats him Pac is defo in the top 3 welterweights in the division.

    Floyd could kill two birds with one stone.:good


    No

    Your theroy is jacked. Pac barely got by JMM twice. Floyd destoys JMM. Logic would have Floyd destoying Pac as well even tho Pac beat JMM. It's all about styles make fights, not who beat who IMO.

    has mayweather not gone on record to say that he will have 2/3 more fights? if so, he only surely has the option out of cotto pacman (one of which he cant cos they will have lost to each other) mosely berto but knowing floyd he will probably fight tim bradley. actually floyd doesnt have all that many options to make big $$$

    Actually I felt Shane beat Cotto.....but it was close and a good fight. I think it made Cotto better. I think there is no question that Shane is the best out of Marg, Cotto and Shane. Based on his performances.

    Styles do make fights which is why he would not fare well against a style like Floyd. Pac on the other hand has the style but also the natural physical gifts that Floyd enjoys. Cotto doesn't have the talent or natrual athletic ability that both PAC and Floyd enjoy over all their opposition.

    Pitting PAC vs Floyd would be the best or most competitive fight for both fighters. The only thing I will say is if Floyd fights Cotto it will be a fight with a TRUE WW which is something the boxing world has been asking for.

    Technically what you're saying makes some sense but even if Cotto lost to Pac I think he would still give Floyd a tougher fight than Pac. Cotto makes more adjustments than Pac. He actually turned into a boxer against Shane. Pac has gotten better but he won't be able to adjust to all the different things Floyd would throw at him. If he really is dumb enough to try and walk Floyd down it would be Floyd/Chico part 2.

    can you imagine what would happen on this board if pbf didnt fight the winner of pac/cotto and instead of turning to ssm, went to berto or margo??

    now, if berto and margo want to have a go and then use that win as a platform to really call someone out then why not
