    He would rather fight Williams??? What!!?

    Cotto would be the much better opponent for a million reasons.

    I can't believe it..
    like i detailed in the other thread, all of this has to do with arum, at least thats the way i see it, so long as arum is on the ropes with pbf, you will not see an arum fighter and a pbf in the same ring.

      strange. cotto is a bigger draw than cintron and williams, and cotto probably is a less difficult style matchup than williams.

      it's probably due to mayweather and arum hating each other.

      williams is still with goosen, right?

          I dunno what his problem with Cotto is. In all honesty, I think Mosley is the more dangerous option for Mayweather. Either way, if he doesn't fight the winner, regardless of who it is, I'll start to wonder what the hell i sgoing through Mayweathers head.

            It couldn't be anything else, agreed.

              If he hates Arum, why not beat his #1 fighter?Floyd knows that the fans and the networks will want to see him face Cotto if he beats Mosley...

                Because if he lost, it'd be to a fighter that is "owned" by the guy that he hates. Also, his enemy would be making money off him, regardless of the outcome. I think he should fight the winner, regardless, but I see the viewpoint.

                  i wish floyd would see it the same way.

                  but in his mind, he may be thinking "i'm not letting arum, this guy who didn't promote me right over the years, make all this money off of me"

                      the only way the fight would happen is if HBO forced it down his throat to concede, which would mean alot of money would be in mayweathers favor, also like someone pointed out, mayweather doesnt want arum benefitting from him ever again, period. I mean, in alot of ways if arum wronged floyd in some way buisness wise that we dont know about, its really hard to understand his reasoning for feeling that way, but just like margarito, arum will use this against floyd regardless.
