I wouldn't mind seeing this but Bob Arum is always the man in the middle causing problems. Old bastard needs to retire for the good of boxing.
Last time Arum tried to get involve Mayweather needed a chance for his body to heal LOL.
The fight to be made back in 07 was Cotto vs Mayweather. Cotto was undefeated and red hot at the moment, I really thought that they were going to get at it. It was a disappointment when I saw Mayweather interview about fighting Cotto and his answer was that Cotto live in PR so they couldn't fight. I still crack up every time I see that interview....LOL.
I think Cotto vs Mayweather was perfect to be made after Cotto beat Mosley in NOV and Floyd beat Hatton a few weeks after. It was immediately after the Hatton fight that Floyd chose to retire.
Of course it gets play. Cotto is already somehow the highest ranked jr middleweight champ. If Margarito did beat him he would assume that position. Floyd could fight the winner without help from the sanctioning body ala Pacman-Margarito.
I think Cotto wins this rematch & I would love Cotto-Floyd at full weight for ring at 154!!
im bout it!! mayw staying far away from toprank fighters! he evades them like the black plague. theres a reason he left TR, cuz he woulda lost had he stayed to fight better op.
BoxingScene user "LaMigra" will admit Mexicans are better than Puerto Ricans, Mexico will become the safest place to travel, Everyone on boxing scene will become golf fans.
IN SHORT, All of this things I just said have more of a probability happening than Fraud Mayweather growing a pair and actually fighting one of these two.
Reason why i ask. I remember a lot of people including HBO pushing for the fight between Cotto and Mayweather before Cotto's first lost against Margarito. I recall Larry Merchant stating something along the lines of Mayweather needs to fight a young lion like Cotto.

Oh, I see, so you are gonna counter a fact from the guy who can't stand Floyd and promotes both Margarito and Cotto, with the OPINION of a sportswriter who knows next to nothing about boxing. Gotcha! Someone needs to go back to debate 101.
no...im just telling you why the fight aint gonna happen...thats all....

Floyd vs Tony or Cotto is still ok
but it wouldn't be a big fight anymore
Floyd blew his chances to get big credit for beating those 2
he wouldn't do it anyway, though at this point he don't have to
