I was thinking of making a thread aboout this idea since this is Mayweather's main argument for currently not fighting Cotto. My idea is for Floyd to let De La Hoya face Cotto and he could fight Mosely on the same card with the winners of each match to fight each other next year.
Is Oscar ever going to retire? He can't win anymore losing 4 out of his last 5 fights. He can't beat middleweights, he can't beat welterweights and even bringing lightweights up to fight him he loses. Say what you want but there is no way he will beat Mayweather and PBF is even way out of his weight class. But he will never retire when the Oscarsexuals continue to flood money into him. How you can continue giving money to a loser like you continually do is just complete insanity. He has proven he cares nothing about hislegacy adding loss after loss to his record. It's the love for more and more money that keeps him fooling you into thinking he will win. The "I'm in the best shape of my life" line is total crap. He hasn't been in top shape in years. But your day is coming. He's fighting Forbes next month. You know Forbes, the guy Oscar uses for a sparring partner. Yes he is on GBP payroll. A sparring partner that is 5' 6" with a 66" reach. A Goddamn lightweight. But a victory at last. How do I know he'll win? Because he's in the best shape of his life!
It's not so much the "Oscarsexuals", but other fighters that know fighting Oscar will bring a big payday. What top WW would not want to fight Oscar. Think Cotto will pass this up? Not when Floyd is ducking him. If Margarito happens to beat Cotto do you think Oscar will want to fight him?
The funny thing is - is that he's not going to beat PBF and his wife doesn't want him to fight any other Puerto Ricans. I don't know if he's going to honor his wife's decision, but you would think that he wouldve fought Cotto already if he had plans to -
A properly motivated and conditioned DLH beats Cotto IMO but can you imagine Cotto's resume at WW if he won. DLH Margarito(assuming he won this one or else DLH/Cotto would'nt happen) Mosley Judah Urkal Quintana NICE!
