    **** FLOYD... cotto doesn't have a fanbase? duh.. ricans will back him up and he's very well known..

    floyd doesn't deserve to be p4p #1 unless he fights cotto.. he's wasting his talent.. he's afraid to lose his 0. what kind of a fighter is that?

    wow. people just don't like floyd. there are so many champions outh there who have these abc titles fighting nobodies and no one bothers them (abraham). it's almost like a double standard. he's a 6 time world champ, and he can retire now and be a first-ballot hall of famer. if he don't fight cotto, nothing will change. his legacy and p4p status does not live or die with cotto!!! i would love to see the fight, but i'm not getting my hopes up.

    by the way all this "he needs to fight cotto/he's ducking cotto" stuff sounds really familiar (remember margarito?)

    DLH certainly brought a good amount of the audience to that fight. However, Ricky is not the one who sold his fight with Floyd. That was mostly Floyd in that one(at least the U.S numbers)

    He has beaten in his last few fight:
    Quintana- a current WW champ he just dethroned PBF "biggest" threat supposedly.
    Urkal- Above Average fighter. I think he was ranked 7 or so by the ring mag when they fought.
    Judah- Always a dangerous fighter
    Mosley- Still one of the top 3 WW.

    What Floyd fails to realise also, is that he has so much PPV because first of all he fought De La Hoya(Dont be fooling yourself Mayweather, the attraction is DLH), and because Floyd got in the ring with Oscar, is why he had good PPV numbers against Ricky. No discrediting Floyd, he has great skills that should be appreciated by many more, but he is living in a fantasy land if he thinks his PPV side in a fight with Cotto would dramatically outdo Miguels.

    In those rounds he 'ran,' he still managed to land the cleaner shots. Watch round 11 again.

    And at 147, Mosley is a far more worthy opponent than Ricky Hatton. Not only is Mosley superior to Hatton in a H2H matchup, but he also beat Collazo far more decisively than Hatton. Nobody argued about Mosley's win. Why? Because he won 10 or 11 rounds. Hatton, on the other hand, lost arguably 7 of 12, proving he isn't in Mosley's class.

    I really think that even the current Mosely can beat the Floyd we got now, it's not hard to imagine.

    I'd go with Mayweather by decision right now. Seeing how Mosley dosn't really apply technical pressure and he would be hit by a number of clean counterpunches. But then again, Mosley's strength and fighting spirit aren't to be overlooked.

    I don't believe Mosley has a snowball's chance in hell right now. I'd favor Cotto though.

    Mayweather sure wouldn't beat him wide though.

    Hell, has he blown out a ****ing B+ anytime lately, I mean real dominative. Not a 116-112, just a good 10 to 2 or more ass whipping?

    Judah, I guess, but he dropped 3 straight rounds in the process and got stunned and should have had a KD against him.

    At 168, Kessler dominated Mundine, a true B+, by an easy 10 rounds to 2 on my scorecard.
