"#5. Cotto can cut the ring off. For some reason, with all of his teachings, and different trainers, Oscar De La Hoya has never learned to do so. It is why he lost.
#4. Mayweather knows that fighting Cotto, is like having a few fights in one night. It would be a bruising and devastating night, that may just send him into a real retirement, not the one he scripted for HBO.
#3. Mayweather knows he got away with murder, and a lot of money against De La Hoya. As long as people are ****** enough to pay to watch him run backwards for 12 rounds, he is going to take the money. Why should he fight a real competitive fight?
#2. The Feud. There are obviously bad feelings between he and Top Rank. Top Rank made him a superstar, but I guess good old Bob Arum wanted him to fight real competition. Imagine that.
#1. Cotto is stronger, and has the will of a champion. Arum put it best when he said “Cotto will fight anybody, and I mean anybody”. Floyd Mayweather has made the same statement, followed by the same phrase, “pay me”. I have a feeling Miguel Cotto is fighting for something other than money. He knows this in his heart, and Mayweather knows it to. That’s the best reason of all he will never face Cotto."
