Why do people want a Cotto-Mayweather fight so badly?

:yikes i dont even know where to begin....

first off... i think we can stop with the corley and torres fights already, number one... corley was FAR from a life and death fight. So i guess getting wobbled and hurt, is now life and death? LOL!

second... that fight was almost 10 fights ago... get over it. Fighters get better and improve over time, that was also a weight at which he was killing himself to get to. And least we forget someone else that got buzzed by corley... oh thats right... mayweather himself.

The torres fight was a life and death fight, but again... cotto has proven himself against bigger punchers since, and has obviously grown as a fighter and filled out at a better weight. again... that was 3 years and 6 fights ago... i think we can let go of that now.

And you have your right to your opinion... but the fact is cotto beat mosley, and mosley in the afterfight interview had no problem with the decision... because... cotto won.

and the last thing is its not ABOUT wether or not cotto would or wouldnt beat mayweather, its about mayweather being the supposed 147 REAL CHAMPION and not fighting the CLEAR SECOND BEST. cleaning out a division is what the champion is supposed to do, not his challenger. What the hell does cotto have to do to get a fight with the CHAMPION of his division?
He beat fellow beltholder quintana
He beat Judah
He beat Mosley

so now he has to go through and beat guys 4, 5, 6, 7, ect?

Thats ridicoulas....

Its about Cotto getting his shot because he earned his shot.
Its about Cotto gettings his shot because hes number 2 in a deep division
Its about Cotto getting his shot because wether YOU like it or not or can see it or not, he IS mayweathers toughest challenge. This isnt baldomir, this isnt gatti, this isnt sharmba, this isnt ndou, this isnt judah, Hatton is class but cotto's size and strength give him the edge. He has good power, good boxing skills, good jab, deceptive speed, and more importantly the will and toughness to give mayweather fits.

mayweather corley - decision
cotto corley - KO

mayweather sosa - decision
cotto sosa - KO

mayweather judah - decision
cotto judah - KO

make all the excuses for the opponents or mayweather that you want, and yes... differant fighters will yield differant results upon similar opponents, but its clear cotto is class, undefeated, and has fought his way into the number 2 spot by beating judah, mosley and quintana

I have no idea how or why you or anyone does NOT want to see this fight. This is what boxing is about... the champion fighting the clear challenger to his throne.

great post Kirk...the only guys that don't want this fight to happen is the Floyd fans...for the simple reason " Floyd is making himself look like a ***** for ducking Cotto" so his fans by not wanting the fight will justify Floyd's"bitchassness"...but deep in thier hearts they know this is the only logical fight for

:happy :happy

And Mayrunner fans have already forgotten the blatently lying/ducking then lying again about fighting Margarito here is the link:http://www.eastsideboxing.com/news.php?p=7852&more=1

To fight DLH the number 5 ranked fighter in the worse division in boxing is a pure joke-and to now do it twice!? Pathetic.
