    If Floyd makes 140 comfortably, he beats Pacquiao comfortably.

    I wouldn't want to see it, and if Arum was gonna put one of his big names with Mayweather, most likely (hopefully) it'd be someone who has a better shot at winning, like Cotto.

    at 140?

    PBF literally murders Pacman and Pacman so beaten and hurt is forced to retire from injuries substained in theirfight.

    i don't think it would as comfortable as you think for PBF....PBF seems like he likes to coast in his last few fights and if Pac applied steady hands like he did against Diaz he could possibly outwork PBF....i just think PBF as the smartest fighter in the last 15 yrs and he will pick up the pace to steal it....

    Cotto was offered that fight back at 140 and chose not to jump...

    His own size? Cotto is bigger. Floyd would have to fight at 140 to fight people around his size.

    cotto's camp admittedly believe that cotto is too raw to take someone like floyd in his prime then and i agree. now is the perfect time to see this match after cotto but floyd retired. i would favor floyd again but it would not be an easy fight for him and would not be surpised if cotto squeek out a win.

    if Cotto beats Margarito in impressive fashion watch PBF unretire quickly....and i think the 'retirement' by PBF was a ploy anyway to make more money for the Cotto fight....i mean how many fighters 'retire' and come right back, it's not an easy sport to shake for a real fighter that is still young....

    cotto started at 140 and is not a big welterweight like margo and williams. he is about the same size as floyd who is settled at 147 before retiring.

    Very easy tko victory for Floyd. I love pacman, but it would be incredibly one sided.

    i don't know man. dela hoya2 is a money fight but floyd's pride kept him out of this one. if cotto looks impressive against margo, i would be surprised if floyd unretires and fight cotto. mad props for him if he does and seeks challenges.

    Floyd started at 130. Cotto might be closer to Floyd but Floyd is still smaller.
