    I also agree with beauty. As much as Cotto is a more formidable threat to Mayweather than Hatton is (unless Hatton somehow got the fight at 140), his INTERNATIONAL profile isn't on par with Hatton's. Cotto-PBF at MSG would be huge, but it would not quite match Hatton-PBF at MSG or especially in Manchester (which can't happen, but I digress...)

    Hatton could not only bring 10k+ fans, but don't forget about the lucrative European TV element to a Hatton-Mayweather fight. There's more millions for PBF to salivate over. Also, Cotto of course is Top Rank and apparently PBF has the same kind of distaste for Arum and co. as De La Hoya does. Fighting Cotto really helps Arum and of course, if he were to lose, it would add the ultimate insult to injury for Mayweather.

    So there's a big different money wise because of Hatton's legions of fans and the Euro TV element...


    ...but of course there's also the aspect of Hatton being eminently more beatable than Cotto.

      I agree with everything you stated except for the last paragraph. Mayweather does not duck good opponents. I think he just chooses the fights that will make him the most money. Plain and simple.

      I think your points about Arum were dead on. I was just going to say that.

        Cotto has never called Mayweather out. How many times must this be said before people say Mayweather is ducking him? Hatton talks **** about Mayweather every 3 hours, so of course Mayweather is going to respond to him.

                I wasn't implying that the fact that Hatton would be an "easier" fight for Floyd is the REAL reason why, I was just saying that's like icing on the cake. More money and and easier fight...not easier fight with more money involved. It's just a bit of a bonus for him, not the motivation or catalyst for fighting.

                      of course Floyd is quiet about Cotto, because you fail to realize that boxing fights are about money and ppv buys. Cotto vs. Mayweather is great for hardcore boxing fans and journalists, but it won't do garbage on ppv and isnt a big money making fight for Floyd. Hatton vs. Mayweather is huge, as Hatton has an entire country behind him and has a more impressive resume than Cotto anyway (IMO). When you're the best, everyone wants a piece of you, unfortunately you can only fight one person at a time, so there will always be people saying this about someone.
