lets Say Cotto Destroys Margo And Pbf Squeaks By DLH Then Chooses To Fight Hatton Instead Will You Still Have Pbf At #1 P4p
As soon as the contracts are signed, I'm demoting Mayweather. You just can't have a 'semi-retired' guy handpicking big money fights and avoiding guys that deserve a shot. It sends out the wrong message, and devalues the ratings completely
No for sure not - and I consider myself a mild PBF fan. One thing Bob Arum has to realize though - HE CAN'T continue to speak for Cotto.....If Miguel destroys Margo (unlikely) he needs to be the one to say to Larry Merchant, "Yes, I want Floyd, I can beat Floyd, and if he ducks me he's a coward." Nobody believes the **** that Bob Arum says.....
Who will you replace him with?, Cotto? If he fights Hatton next and not the winner of Cotto/Margarito after being offered the fight and declining it then that would definitely affect his reputation. If Cotto's team shows no interest then you can't really blame Mayweather, you have to look at it from both sides.
I think PBF needs to lose. DLH is a quality 147 and Hatton is a former champ. It looks good on paper and historically.
It doesn't matter if Floyd rematches Hatton, Cotto would still not get no.1 spot with a demolition of Margarito. Pac could if he takes out David Diaz (as expected) and then someone like Campbell/Casamayor/Marquez III/Guzman in the next fight.
