    You like Cotto...why is it, dickheads like yourself talk so much **** about a fighter, then try to claim you like them...as if by saying that , it will make you seem objective...you're ridiculous. Cotto is the same guy he was 5 years ago, and nothing is going to change him...Floyd is the one using the excuse of drawing power, to duck the real threats at 147. 147 the deepest division in boxing today and he fights a Jr WW in Hatton, who evidently looked awful at 147 and DLH who isn't even ranked at 147. Cotto will fight PBF at a heartbeat...Floyd is the one refusing to even mention his name.

    spot on.

    I wish the pbf v. cotto fight would happen, but I doubt it will..

    I still think it will be all bad for Cotto though.

    i dont think so, sure there will always be haters but floyd would have been more liked if he was like that, why do you think everyone likes cotto?

    The only fighters Cotto can fight to make himself a bigger draw are PBF and DLH. He is already a bigger draw than nearly everyone else. (Pacquiao also being close, but Cotto cannot fight Pacquiao). In other words, Cotto is already a big enough draw.

    Yeah offcially so, but that win wasn't too convincing. If an old immobile mosley troubles him what would the super-mobile floyd do to him ?
    Beat him to crap no, easily outbox him to a ud yes imo

    Still i hate it that this fight cant be made. ****ing arum

    Uhm Fraud is the one when asked about fighting Cotto - "Im taking the year off".

    Then when the useless DLH match comes up he's not taking the year off anymore. :-(


    Its clearly Fraud doing the ducking of Cotto.

    I'm a known floyd fan, and the fact that the Cotto fight hasn't happened yet pisses me off. I dont think theres a ton of risk there, and I don't believe Cotto would find Floyd enough, it would probably turn into a boring pot shot 12 round decision in floyd's favor. At the same time though I have trouble blaming floyd, he's taking the fight that will pay considerably more and carries almost no risk - he'll be fighting an older, slower fighter than he did last may.

    when asked about facing Cotto he didnt say "Id fight him in December" - he couldnt even say Cottos name.

    and even though pbf is one of my favorite fighters......i'm getting disgusted

    I cant understand posessing that much talent, and not being able to put it on the line.

    Personally if he's saying he's the best ever, he should prove it. Its a shame how money has changed boxing as a sport - its no longer about beating everyone available
