    that is about as accurate and simply put as you can make it. I admit, I give him too much credit being a fan. But if he lost to any fighter like a Cotto I would not just say he was overhyped and all the bull**** that comes along with being a great fighter that loses. With Floyd, it is not about just who he beat, its how good he looks doing it. He can even be smooth fighting a little dirty and he perfects that **** like in the Hatton fight. He was dirty but damn..that was some sneaky dirty tactics that are effecient and not just loud and blatent.

    I know people don't give a **** about the amount of money a fight can produce, neither do i.

    But when a boxer achieves superstar status.....they want superstar fights...i mean a baby can understand that.

    If it was up to the fans....floyd would've been fighting Cotto this year but because floyd is a superstar (highly recognized figure by the media that generates publicity) He wants to keep fighting others such as himself.

    Now everybody and their mama knows that Cotto is the emerging star of the WW division. And i'm sure floyd knows that as well.

    Now as i said, if and when he beats marg, then the fight has to happen.

    And if floyd declines then i'll have to agree that he's afraid and will stain his mark in history.

    But yes, i agree that we should focus on the cotto-marg megafight. It's going to be a war.

    the excuse will be that cotto wore 10oz gloves instead of 8oz gloves. LOL!
