Mayweather responds to Cotto on ESPN... (video)

it def. takes talent but then again as he moved up, corrales was known for one great fight, the first castillo fight was controversial, carlos hernandez was on his way to retirement which he did after the mayweather fight, gatti a good figther with heart but realistically not an "A" level opponent, baldomir a Cinderella story enough said, Judah perform well until the 10th round event, beat DLH in split decision I still give mayweather credit for winning this one with no controversy, and we all know Hatton has no business at 147...

now honestly wouldn't this resume if mayweather ever considers it be more impressive, cotto, williams, cintron, margarito, or even quintana...

 

my sentiments exactly. you can talk all this **** about floyd being a coward and a fraud but you have done absolutely nothing yourself to compare to what floyd has done and who he has defeated:deal

wrong again as usual..casa won the wba 130 title in may of 2000. floyd won his 130 wbc in october of 1998:deal your just spouting lives to justify your personal bias. before it's all said and done I will put you to shame in front of all the posters on ESB:admin and since you mentioned casa and freitas which one was ranked higher then diego corrales on thep4p list:deal don't worry I'll wat:hey

are you afraid to mention spadafora's name now:yep :rofl once again at 135 who faced the better comp and won; floyd or spadafora? do you think floyd would have struggled with sosa or dorin like spadafora did.

has cotto, spadafora, freitas, or casamayor ever unified a weight class:deal and cotto has never defeated a champion at 147 or any weight class for that matter. floyd defeated baldomir and zab and took their titles, are you saying that beating an old mosley who hasn't won a championship fight in over 3 years is better than baldomir who actually stepped up and beat one. Floyd for the record has defeated 2 that trumps any contender on cotto's record:deal

so to sum up what you have been posting incessanly since the hatton loss.

1. floyd is a fraud because he won't face cotto in his next fight.

2. Floyd is a fraud and coward because he hasn't faced casamayor, freitas, and zyu

3. floyd should forget about the money owed to him and face cotto next If he doesn't then he is a coward and not a real champion:deal

none of your points holds up under scrutiny, I mean you do now what scrutiny is :rofl

 

I guess Zab, Bruseles and Baldomir all had bigger fanbases than Cotto :roll:


Fraud is a sad excuse for a "warrior".

 

2 weight divison champ defeated casamayor, castillo (the first fighter to ko castilo) and freitas, and many more to numerous to name. You may have a problem with floyd but please try and remain objective when you speak of chico. he will not be rembered for only one fight he had a hof career and was one of the most dominat 130 fighters in the last 20 years.

floyd won a UD I don't see anything controversial about that.

do you hate floyd tat much you just make **** up. carlos hernandez had 13 more fights after floyd and even went on to win the IBF 130 title and defended that title and beat steve forbes before losing to erik morales.

and what business does floyd have at 147. stop making excuses hatton belonged in the ring with floyd at 147 :deal

no it wouldn't williams, margarito, cintron and cotto have done nothing remotely equal to what floyd has done. the only fight left for floyd at 147 is to face the winner of the margarito vs cintron vs cotto tournament and then unify 147 against whover the winner is. he doesn't need to fight all of them only the best one or the last one standing.

 

:rofl :rofl :rofl I'm cool with both of ya'll but great post!:good

 

If they aint hatin on you you aint makin no noise.

Now back to my own semi-retirement.

Big ups to all you Floyd haters.

 

I don't know about the others, but I don't have a problem w/ Floyd doing these pointless rematches, dancing on TV, and rassling. [Now, I realize none of this has anything to do w/ the betterment of the sport, unlike the Golden Gloves donation he made, those other moves are only meant for the betterment of Floyd Mayweather, Jr] I DO have a problem with him keeping the WW belt when he is avoiding the division (c'mon guys, we all know Hatton is no WW). I say he loses/drops/is stripped of the belts and can continue avoiding the welterweights just fine.

No one has provided a proper explanation as to how beating Carlos Baldomir 16 months ago has earned Floyd a lifetime WW belt. It shouldn't work like that.

 

what the **** are you talking about:blood the "betterment of the sport" what the **** is that:admin this is a business fighters get paid to win not for the "betterment of the sport":deal please enlightenus at esb on just what the **** you are talking about:rofl :nut

every move he makes should be for his benefit and that of his family's. are you saying floyd should not have a chance to maximize his profits after years of tough training and figts. where was this condemnation of pacquiao when he faced morales and barrera 5 times.

you think flod gets up every morning thnking he has to answer to a bunch of nameless ******s on a message board:deal

which welterweight belt are you talking about. you ****ing ****** boys crak me up. here are the facts whether you like them or not:

fact #1: floyd is the WBC/RIng welterweight champion. this means floyds championship fights are sanctioned by the WBC, not nameless posters on esb:deal

fact #2: floyd vs ricky was a defense of floyd's WBC title. hatton beng a former WBA champ and a 140 ring champion was mandated as floyd's #1 challenger. The WBC could not rank cotto, williams, or cintron since they all owned belts.

fact #3 : Since Floyd defended his WBC title in dec he has up to a year to make another defense:deal and he can make one voluntary defense.

your mind can't grasp reality it's all ****ed up with hate:deal floyd just got through defending his WBC/ring title he doesn't need to fight cotto at this moment. amd I prefer to let the fight build where cotto takes another strap and then they can unify:deal

 

For Fraud to pretend like Cotto aint worthy or doesnt have enough fans is nothing if not STUPID.

The dude is clearly ducking him, as he has already clearly ducked Winky, Margarito and Shane. Fighters fight and duckers duck.

 

It's utterly STUPID for Floyds fanboys to defend this when Floyd WANTED to fight a greener version already. Morons...

 

In 2005, after the Gatti fight, Arum talked of matching Cotto wit Mayweather. Cotto was about 25 at the time, or about the same age as when Floyd won and defended his 130 lb. title 9 times. Cotto was also a top 3 Jr. WW. At the time, the biggest fights Floyd could make in that division were against Hatton and Cotto. Currently, Cotto is once again a top fighter in Floyd's division. However, Floyd is no longer under Arum. In fact, he's suing him. Furthermore, he has alot more options and can make more money fighting DLH and Hatton again. I'm not making a judgement as to whom he should fight, I'm simply stating the situatuion has changed; he has more options than he did in 2005.

 

Cotto has earned the right to fight Mayweather, in most boxing fans and critics opinion.

No matter how many times Floyd says it, it will never be fact that Cotto needs to do more.

If he is not fighting him because Cotto doesn't bring enough money to the table, fine.

Just don't tell us you are no longer fighting for money, but legacy.

Right now nobody furthers his legacy more, than a victory over Cotto. Not a rematch with De La Hoya, and certainly not a rematch with Hatton.

 

You should work for the Bush admin.

If DLH was still promoted by Arum I wonder if Fraud would find a way to work with him. :huh

 

theres only 1 ricky hatton
wembley 2009 he will be victorious
only reason he lost last time was becos of referee
hatton will become the best p4p boxer on the planet

 

Cotto's record is just as good as Floyd's Mosley and Judah are beyond solid wins. What needs to happen is a universal boxing commission so two top prime contenders don't actually fight happens again.
