Some observations/thoughts...
1) The main reason I watched the replay of Floyd/Cotto was to see the new interview with Cotto. It was tough to see him crying while holding his son, but I could imagine going through those emotions after a fight like that. Also, his face looked terrible; he took some hard shots in that fight over 12 rounds.
2) Max Kellerman is probably my favorite observer of the sport. However, I disagree with him suggesting, on The Fight Game, that a Floyd/Cotto rematch should be considered. Cotto gave it his all and was competitve, but Floyd still clearly won.
3) I love how Max kept talking about Bradley's will to win on Face-Off. I think Bradley's will to win is comparable to Floyd Mayweather and Andre Ward, among others. It's an intangiable that guides their actions, and dedication to the sport. Look no further than after Bradley got dropped by Holt in round 1. Tim shoots up after being knocked down, and then goes down to one knee to re-focus. Just by looking into his eyes, you could tell that he was undeterred by that seemingly huge setback.
4) If I'm not mistaken, during The Fight Game, no mention was made about Sergio Martinez being a potential Floyd Mayweather opponent. That's unfortunate, but perhaps an omission by mistake.
5) I don't know who takes longer to get out a sentence-- Bob Arum or Larry Merchant. I don't know what was up with Arum during that interview.
Bonus: Manny Pacquiao thinks of Tim Bradley and himself as handsome.

1. Yes seeing him crying while holding his son was hard to watch. Cotto really cares about boxing and now everyone can see he is not just about the money, but not only that he still has that fire burning inside of him. Yes Cotto's face was all bruised up but that is not because Floyd is a super hard puncher or that he took a lot of shots(Floyd landed only 26%) that is just a normal thing for Cotto at this stage of his career. Ever since the first Margarito fight his face get's all bruised after fights.
2. I disagree with your opinion. Yes Floyd won but it was 116-112 or 115-113 tipe of fight so if he doesn't face Pacquiao whats out there for him? Khan? Khan has no chance at beating Mayweather and he is not a big enough draw, Berto-Ortiz winner? They got no chance either. Martinez? That won't happen. So what options he has?
3. Will to win don't matter since Bradley is average at everything.
4. That is because he is set to fight Chavez Jr.
5. Arum seems on his last legs.
