    All I see is people still talking about may vs package. Or the possible Martinez people saying hell fight 5 more after cotto. Gets me f****** pissed. The Guy is about to fight Miguel cotto and people are talking like there's no chance no competition who cares about cotto what's next. I hope cotto ko money and teach all of y'all a lesson

    It's just very difficult to see Cotto having any realistic chance imo. Martinez on the other hand has a great chance of knocking out Floyd due to his size. Floyd is too good for anyone his own size to have a good chance against him.

    Cotto has no chance. If he did Mayweather would not have agreed to fight him.

    Yeah he's not like Manny, who only takes fights where he is the underdog, because he fights for the people. :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

    Cotto is ranked no.1 in the division above Mayweather, he's a current champion, he's won 3 fights in a row by stoppage, this is a fight that people want to see, and Cotto is the 3rd biggest draw in boxing. Those might also be some reasons the fight is happening.

    We all know what you are getting at. Or is there another fighter out there that you feel takes fights where he feels he will lose?:think

    I think you're a little paranoid.

    Most boxers I would say would take a fight against Mayweather even if the chances of them winning are nearly non-existent.

    No, it's because Floyd is a bully, and wants to pick on poor, innocent Miguel. :lol:

    victor ortiz was the champion last time and was an 8-1 underdog..it means ****.

    The Puerto Rican boxing icon Cotto (37-2 30 KO’s) is a 6-1 VEGAS ODDS underdog

    Who isnt a massive underdog against Mayweather? I think if may and pac ever did fight i think Pac would be a 3-1 underdog. I think it would open up at 2-1 but eventually get to 3-1. Martinez would be the closest I think he'd be somewhere around 1.5-1 to 2-1 depending on the weight.

    Doesn't that speak volumes about how good Mayweather is? Furthermore, odds are a reflection of the confidence of the betting public, not how the fight will go. Pacquiao was a 9-1 favorite over Marquez. Hopkins was a 5-1 underdog to Pavlik. Just look at the top p4p fighters out there, they are almost all fighting guys that are significant underdogs. The betting public has a lot of confidence in fighters that they know, and that have been winning.
