Cotto needs to Stop worrying about Mayweather.....
Because it's obvious that Mayweather aint worrying about him....
Cotto needs to be in a PPV that at least Does 350K PPV
Cotto is not KnowN yet, he is still a Local...
I meaned this Dude is Still Fighting For Free ON HBO.... and he is suppose to Be Mayweathers Equal is terms of being a star and a draw..?
It’s a reason why COTTO NEVER FIGHT OUT OF NEW YORK Recently...
And its not just the 8 oz. gloves Las Vegas Dont want him.....
Cotto fighting in New York which is Puerto Rican Central is going to sell because he is Puerto Rican...
If many paciquo fight in the Phil. Every fight he would sell out Too,,, But Manny Paciquo is a Star now so he fights in Vegas and sells out
Ricky Hatton Sells Out In Manchester… But Ricky Hatton is a Star now so he fights in Vegas and sells out
And Joe Cal….is Still a Local in my Book too… But now he has Reach the star status, So now he is Fighting in Vegas….which is going to sell out
EveryOne Knows P.P.V is the real indicator of A boxers Success... Because you to have the appeal to make people spend anywhere from $45-60 dollars
to see you fight from all across the nation Not just "New York"
Example:
Cotto vs. Judah in (NEW YORK)= 225,000 PPV BUYS
Cotto is suppose to be ABLE TO sell out shit...

or have a bigger fan base than floyd...where are they at..??
Floyd vs. Judah in (Las Vegas) = 375,000 PPV BUYS

LOOK at it like this:Floyd Fighting a No Name Baldomir Did better than Any Cotto Fight
Floyd vs . Carlos Baldomir in (Las Vegas) = 325,000 PPV buys

The Fact of the Matter is that Cotto is not Know yet,
"HE is still a New York Local" and the "FACTS DONT LIE...."

Who says Cotto is worried. CLearly is the other way around.
Cotto just don't give a fuck about Floyd. well At least like we boxing fans do
We dont know what wouldve happen if Floyd fought Spaddy :slap: ( an undeafted prime title holder in his division) but we know what would happend if they sparred
Floyd has a pattern of not fighting undfeated prime titlist in his division, no?
Did we not know what would happen when Floyd fought Hatton, an undefeated prime titlist in the division below (and had previously vacated a title in the division Floyd was in)?
I think you are one of the people who fault Floyd for fighting Hatton, because he wasn't good enough. But he did have the same credentials that you just listed for Spadafora, right?
I never really looked at it that way but now that I think about it you make a good point in regards to Mosley's record. And we obviously agree with Cotto being the most deserving for a fight with Mayweather. Your one of the better posters I've encountered here. If I could have I woulda sent you good K. :boxing:
;) Thanks bro.
I do think he resume would be better if he had some credible opposition that he could have fought at 135... the best there was Stevie Johnston, but he failed to fight him, which is a shame.
If he could have hung around and at least beat Castillo, that would have done wonders for his resume.
Even so, I have to say, Mosley's resume sucks... pretty badly.
He didn't have any really great opponents at 135.
He beat Oscar at 147, and then got wiped out by Forrest, and then lost a rematch.
He should have lost to Oscar at 154, and then got wiped out by Wright, losing a rematch again.
Then he beat a shot Vargas twice (one was close).
Good win over Collazo at 147, but Collazo will likely never be more than just a contender/paper champion at 147.
To be honest, I think Mosley's resume is one of the most overrated in the sport because of the first Oscar win.
That said, I think Cotto has done more than enough to separate himself from the rest of the sport in regard to the most qualified and deserving Mayweather opponent.

Mosley won that fight D... seriously. Watch it with the sound off. His punches were cleaner and much harder then Dela's and even had Dela in danger late with Body shots....
I THOUGHT Dela won that as well, I watch it with the sound down the following week and with out hearing Lampley and Merchant getting all excited at Dela's fluries , not too mention the crowd.. there was a big difference.
I guess I'll have to rewatch it.
Agreed. The 154 bout was questionable to say the least I just fucking hate these excuses and justifications of Cotto-Mayweather never taking place. Fact is Cotto beat the guy who Mayweather beat. IMO Mosley had more left for the Cotto fight than Oscar did for the Mayweather fight. IMO Mosley still has more left than Oscar does at this stage in their careers.

And how many of those were good decisions?
I'm pretty sure that almost everyone thought the bout at 154 should gone to De La Hoya.

That's all I'm saying I'm not gonna argue anymore because all the points have been argued over what, how and why this fight never took place and I know Mayweather didn't and doesn't want the fight and Cotto did and if Cotto had a magic wand right now he'd make the fight happen immediately.
Mosley holds 2 victories over Oscar... At 147 and at 154.

Fuck off.
He was in shape and refreshed and confident off a beatdown of Mayorga.
He still represented a significant threat @ light-middle, especially to a natural junior-welter.
That version of Oscar @ light-middle is a more dangerous fight than that version of Mosley @ welter.

:lol1::lol1::rofl:
he Said Keeping Floyd From Becoming A Star And Is Now Keeping Cotto From Becoming One. Thats Just Dumb.. I Dont Wanna See Cotto Do Reality Shows Like Floyd..
Cotto May Still Fight Dela Hoya Which What Made Floyd More Popular And He Will Do It With Arum As His Manager , Other Thewn That Floyd Was Doing Reality Shows, Which Is Dumb And I Dont Wanna See Cotto On American Idol..get It Through Your Thick Head.. :slap::slap:
Dc Stand Up
The Lack of Interest in this Cotto Margarito Fight in Vegas... Will Be Cotto's last fight in Vegas Unless it is against De La Hoya or Floyd...
He should of had this fight in either Puerto Rico, Mexico, or New York.
I blame Bob Arum for this, He is holding Cotto Back from being a star just like he did with Floyd...
Cotto needs to Leave Arum, HE COULD do better by himself in my opinion..
first you complain about him fighting in new york,you say he needs to fight in vegas,and now that he does it you drop this gem.
Osacr was VERY inactive and not in his prime...:slap:
Mosley was not in his prime either...
But he certainly was more active. There is no debating that.
Yep. Me and crillz got into it a couple of times, but the dude ALWAYS was on point.
i remember you busting his balls for being so street, got a good laugh out of me.
