    Mayweather being suprisingly respectful and nice to Cotto.... Is this mind games?

    Floyd knows how calculated this matchmaking is.

    "I look at him as an undefeated fighter"
    "Future hall-of-famer"
    "He was drained..." (against Pacqiuao) "...I'm going where he is most comfortable"

    Apart from that stuff and the obvious bragging about his bets, which was crowbarred in, two genuine guys with genuine respect. A businessman and a controversial figure? Yes, but Floyd is also a human being, he and Cotto have no beef.

    It's what they're saying it is, a 'legends match', a glorified exhibition IMO but I hope I'm proven wrong.

    Wait until the 24/7 series start, Mayweather will step up the 'bad guy' persona, love him or hate him, he knows how to sell the **** out of a fight!

    Cotto will have some moments, but he'll lose handily. :|

    I don't think ignoring him and making a big show of checking on his 100K bet was particularly respectful.
