Mayweather confirms it will NOT be Miguel Cotto

I'm not saying 90 days is going to erode his long term skills, I'm saying that his pre-entry into the penial system is going to stress him. I understand he's a boxer and it takes strong mental focus and dedication. However its easier to fear what you don't know in comparison to what you do. I've been in both county and I've been in Max, your right there is a big difference between the two. However in county you still have your wanna be gangsta's trying to be hard, I've seen fights over phone time in county. Floyd might not have to worry about alot of **** but if he has one dude pop off at the mouth and he goes off you don't think they gonna make him do the full 6 months? Just like we are sitting behind the key board talking about it, I'm sure Floyd is thinking about it right now. Either that or trying to beat the brakes of that fine Ms. Jackson (meaning in bed, no pun intended).

90 days is not a long time, at all. Sure, it's going to suck for Floyd not being able to hang out with Fiddy, glide around his house on his segway, and possibly shoot up a skate park, but the fact remains : It's not a long time. And it's in county lockup, where he will be housed alone, and likely given more privledges than other wards of the unit. As for your questioning of his "mental toughness", and ability to handle the pressure? Newsflash : He's been dedicated to this sport since before he could even walk. Take all the hours of training over all of the years of his life, add that up, and I think you get a pretty good indicator of how strong his mental durability is. As for the rest of that sh*t you posted about some guy getting in his face, something about contraband, and the rest : Clearly you have no understanding of COUNTY lockup. It's not a maximum security prison : That kind of sh*t doesn't go on in county lockup, that's maximum security sh*t you're talking about. :lol1:

Your wrong there cheif. 90 days is nothing to someone that is out in the streets getting busted from time to time. 90 days is light when you've done a 3-5 year bid and you get caught for some bull**** and got to spend some time in county. 90 days to someone that is used to going where they want, when they want, and able to do what they want 90 days is a long time. Floyd isn't some small time peddler that goes back and forth to jail on the weekends. Even though he acts all gangsta and chills with a possie, doesn't mean he's equiped with the mental toughness to be secluded in a cell for 90 days with nothing much to do but stare at walls. What if some dude gets a chance to post up in Floyd's face and he gives someone a beating and gets an extended stay? What if he gets caught with some contraband and they end up making him do the full 6 months? **** has a weird way of happening and I don't just see it as 90 days until the 90 days are served and he is released.

Nobody is beating Floyd based solely off of the fact that he's going to serve 90 days in County, some of you guys are really f*ckin' retarded. 90 days is nothing, country lockup is nothing - You cats are acting like he's getting ready to do 3-5 in San Quentin. :lol1:

I see where your coming from, believe me I do. Anything other then Pac vs. May is just disheartening. However when the best don't fight the best all we as fans are left with is alternatives. Any fight either of them takes is going to seem substandard and lack luster. However I still think Cotto would be a good name on Floyd's resume. I see Cotto having a 20-25% chance of beating Floyd only because of the situation Floyd is in right now.

Well this news certainly seems credible.

You guys acting like Cotto would be a push over. I'm a Cotto FAN!!! Not a STAN!!! I know he has takin a couple of beatings. However Cotto is way better then Mayweather's last opponent. Cotto had a good showing against Margarito in the rematch, he has a belt at 154. Cotto could make it very interesting and I think could present some problems for Floyd. Here's why.... 1. Floyd has to go on vacation for a couple of months. That **** is going to be on his mind 24/7 through out his training camp. The one draw back is that everyone around Floyd is going to be trying to give him advice and its totally going to screw his mind up. Floyd isn't a gangsta and this is going to weigh on his mind and effect his game. 2. Floyd didn't get enough rounds to truely knock off that ring rust. He knew it and thats why he didn't take an extended vacation after the fight. Yes I know Floyd started to turn it on after round 4 but he never really got that engine going before the KO. 3. Cotto just had a fresh injection of confidence. Prior to Margarito, Cotto could be taking a beating and he was like the terminator he just kept coming. He had a never say die attitude and he lost that in the Margarito fight. If we see that Cotto step into the ring with a distracted and rusty Floyd there could be big problems for Money May. I know they seem small, and I know they may seem inconsiquential. But I seriously think Floyd should have taken the penalties for canceling May 5th and did his time and got it over with. Other wise any opponent right now could be the one to finally take that "0." I won't buy Floyd - Cotto okay I probably will, but I won't enjoy it

What choice does Floyd have??? Arum is getting ready to pull off the most blatant duck in history by not fighting Floyd and having Pac fight Peterson. But Pac morons like Check Hooks and Trainhard wont open thier eyes. Arum has never wanted this fight. Pac doesnt have the balls to stand up to Arum.

Still no link trust me it's cotto 100%

still no link....

Prime Mosley in 2007? Are you being stupid? Mosley has been past prime since before 07. Prime Clottey? :lol1: Alvarez says he wants Mayweather or Cotto, if May vs Canelo doesn't happen, I would like to see Canelo finish Cotto off, so that all of those people(mainly pr) that say Canelo wouldn't beat him, could stfu. Canelo would destroy Cotto right now, I'm positive of that. Canelo might not be all that, but Cotto is trash, worse than Canelo. I want to know too, what is this prime Clottey he speaks of? :rofl:

Who the **** has Alvarez beaten to come close to a prime Mosley and Clottey you clown? Hell Cotto has a dozen wins better than Alvarez's best Prime Mosley in 2007? Are you being stupid?

Lol you dudes believe anything somebody post. Try googling the qoute and see why you come up with. Floyd hasn't done any intvs with anybody yet.

Who the **** has Alvarez beaten to come close to a prime Mosley and Clottey you clown? Hell Cotto has a dozen wins better than Alvarez's best Ok, explain to me what a prime Clottey is?

Why would Floyd fight cotto? Cotto is mannys sloppy seconds. You know Floyd always sh1ts on manny for fighting his sloppy seconds! He shouldve fought Cotto YEARS AGO before Manny got to him... again the Flomo sucking his dyck something serious on here.

Mayweather vs. Alveraz it is! Greatest matchup of the century...wow! Slow down Money May, first Ortiz now this?! Your compeition is unmatched better than Ali and Sugar Ray!

source??? i know some people on this forum have good inside info but c'mon...... one day it's one thing other day it's something else.

beating a one legged Foreman, old shot irrelevant limited skilled Mayorga, and a one eye'd unranked Margarito is nothing to be proud about And beating a welterweight Matt Hatton for a phony belt, and the shells of equally irrelevant and unranked Cintron and Gomez is? The versions of Margarito and Mayorga Cotto beat smash the **** out each one of those guys. Foreman was champion, he beat a real champion in Santos in an impressive performance. Hence when Cotto beat him he became #1. Beating Foreman was better than Alvarez's best win in Ryan Rhodes.

If this is true then am definitely glad, Cotto is done at the elite level, Only is name is holding him up..
