Floyd's a great fighter. But....

In retrospect 5 years from now if Cotto has a fantastic record (and it's really shaping up nicely) and Floyd never fought him it will support the 'cherrypicking' theories that have followed him for the latter stages of his career.

Floyd seems to have already decided that money is more important than legacy and that's fine. But look at every great fighter from the past we talk about. We say 'Leonard, wow he fought Hearns, Hagler and Duran'.
We don't say 'Leonard, wow he made some big money'.
We additionally don't rate Marciano as best heavyweight of all time (or even close) despite having an unbeaten record.

There's no doubt that Floyd is 'A' great. None at all.

Unfortunately he told me (and everyone else) he was 'The Greatest' and he isn't.

The only thing that matters here is that May has to fight Cotto so he can call him self the BEST. Remember just because cotto is fighting Gomez does not mean that he is looking for a easy fight look at some of mayweather's fights...

Baldomir, Bruseles, Mitchelle, manfreddie, ect

Can you tell me who was the top contenders at the times of those fights??


Baldomir - late 2006

Bruseles - early 2005

Gatti was in between these two fights..

Mitchell - late 2005

Manfredy - late 1998???

so beating cotto would be a bigger accomplishment the beating floyd?

Yep............

[VegasDude702]

Yep............

i think it would be a bigger achievement as well seeing how its who EVERYONE sees him needing to fight. If Floyd can handle that, i don't think anyone should talk anymore, and thats the achievement within itself.

and never did i say floyd is an atg so quit trying to make up **** like your buddy. but he is a hell of alot closer to it then cotto is or will be lol

5 division champ= weak opposition please man oscar de la hoya is and 6 division champion fought better competition although he lost his most important ones and he's not considers not even a top 20 all time great.


floyd has had weak opposition.

[NAPO]

i dont know much about boxing. I've watched boxing my whole life. I fought in the amateurs dont tell me i dont know boxing. You guys will always find an opponent to throw at floyd. what the **** does cotto bring that will give floyd trouble?????? floyd has been through it all. cotto is nothing new nothing special. you wont even find a fight where you see floyd hurt even after constantly moving up in weight. cotto has been hurt several times by average punches. cotto will get his chin rocked against margarito lets see what the cotto fans have to say then. but ill let you pretend that cotto is the man too beat. im sure everyone would rather beat cotto over floyd.

ok..............amateurs...yeah.


no there is not cotto is the Big Name of all welters.

cotto is a boxer who adapts to styles i think u have seen him throughout his 12 title defenses.

and plus he could get stunt or whatever u want to make up but what happens to his opponents at the end either ko or a L.


and please lets not forget about mayweather's enemy the left jab.



what about margarito he' sorry i get pissed off because he has been losing around three times in title fights and because of arum he still on the map i'll bet u quintana outboxes the crap out of margarito. margarito is too wide.

lol mayweather does not need cotto for anything. cotto is just the best opponent "at the time" cotto is not an all time great. cotto really hasnt accomplished much to say floyd needs him to solidify his greatness. floyd is already great and cotto is just another good opponent that wants too fight him. Cotto posses nothing that would beat floyd. I think it would be more like cotto would need to beat a floyd to solidify his greatness. floyd has fought p4p guys in their primes like castillo, chico, judah, hernandez etc. he took a big risk in fighting dlh at 154 and won pretty convincingly. 6 titles in 5 different weight classes who else has done that???? how many weight classes has cotto won belts in? floyd has accomplished what fighters only dream of...floyd does not need cotto my friend. but let me put in that i wish floyd does fight him that way all the cotto guys can shut up just like judah, dlh, hatton, and paul william fans have done.

there is wayy more weight classes now then there was back in the day so don't be to flattered with Mayweathers 5 dif. weight classes. I'm positive many of the older champs could have done the same if there was as many classes then then theres is now. Also how many belts you have don't mean **** when your fighting the weakest champs who have belts. **** even Gatti had a belt. It's WHO you fight.. quality not quantity. This is the reason why Mayweather will never be top 20 of all time with the way he's going.


BTW Roberto Duran also heald titles in 5 different weight classes and so did Leonard..
