The body punching Cotto who beat Quintana was the one I thought had a chance against Floyd...but lets not forget Cotto was going life and death a lot with lesser fighters...some people even think he lost to Shane. People forget that Floyd was also better than he is now in those years, it doesn't just work one way. Marg lost his plaster and was never the same. P.Will was "exposed" on more than one occasion against slick fighters. Cotto, the way he fought Floyd his last fight is pretty much how I feel he would have fought him then...except I think at 147 Floyd could have hurt him more. But that's all personal opinion. We're men, we can't agree on everything lol. I think Floyd is a talent who could have done more if his personality didn't get in the way. Floyd burned a lot of bridges.
Like you said though, hindsight is 20/20. It looks good now, but at the time there was some doubt (and even now), but the general feeling was that floyd could beat these guys..but for whatever reason, political or not...he didn't.

Respect your post. There are somethings I want to debate, but I don't want to turn this into a "no I'm right, your wrong" type thing. But, yeah man agree with mostly everything you said besides a few minor things. Much respect, bout to pass out brother.
