    My list is gonna be a bit dumb but to me its about entertainment....



    1 - Mayweather vs Mayorga
    *after mayorga loses to vargas id like for him to go down and get a chance against mayweather if ONLY for the fact that i would love to see mayweather in the press conferances against a guy who would not only trash him back... but trash him back WORSE.
    ya... he gets in gentleman hatttons face calling him *****, and homos face, but id love to see him do that to mayorga, also he calls himself the king of trash talking? uuuuh... he would meet the real king.
    i just would want to see the press conferances.




    2 - Cotto vs Mayorga - just want to see it.... i think mayorga at 147... who has trained hard enough to get there.... would give cotto problems and i would love for him to reclaim his figure of being lethal. For those that think cotto would mow him over at 147... please. if cotto had trouble with torres... who cought cotto cuz of his winging shots half the time... mayorga would be a good test. obviously cotto has bigger fish to fry but the entertainment of it would be great for ME. though i wouldnt want to see mayorga trash cotto at the PC.




    the rest i cant order... theres too many.

    I am surprised that after several beatdown and humiliations inflicted on Mayorga, that someone is still eager to watch him. I pretty much concluded long ago that Mayroga is all trash talk, then after the fight (which he always loses) he acts like a dog wanting to lick his conqueror's hand, admitting that all the trashtalks were only to promote the fight and nothing personal.

    Cotto - Mayweather (Cotto would beat him, if not then at least bust him up real bad)

    Cotto - Hatton (this would be a war)

    Pac - Guzman (I am intrigued by this man Guzman so I want to see him against the very best, for Pac I want to see him against this guy and if he beats him he is tied with Mayweather for #1 p4p)

    Juan Diaz - Guzman (I wanna see these two monsters against each other 50/50 fight IMO)

    Gatti - Ward IV (j/k)

    Pavlik - Abraham (I wanna see these two hard punching offensive machines against each other)

    yes.... your very right patsys.

    vargas said that after he beats mayorgas ass, that mayorga will come trying to kiss his nuts.... he says its his nature.

    regardless... id like to see those fights.
