why mayweather won't/doesn't need to fight cotto.

[AntonTheMeh]

All this while you have a giant banner of Trinidad on yours...lol. Unbelievable

it was done by a mexican for your info,and as i've stated before,i've got maybe top six top fighters and 2 are mexican,juan diaz and de leon[pavlik cotto calderon and calzaghe the others]
you see me rooting for collazo to get a title shot?he barely lost to ricky lost to mosley with a broken hand darling.he's in the same spot as margo you don't see ricans up in arms about somebody ducking him.

[jai mari078]

Yo, you gotta be dillusional bro! COTTO doesn't Draw??? Listen man, I was there live at the Garden, they had to open up the rafters cause it was SOLD OUT!!! Ok, so if Mayweather won't fight Miguel Cotto cause "there's no money in it", but then, yet he is willing to fight Kermit Cintron or Paul Williams, in which Cotto fills more seats than both of them combined! go figure...

GOOD PSOT!!!! I made this same point. It's a ****ing joke when he decides to fight either Williams or Cintron instead. I love when people question Cottos resume, and try to justify fighting either Williams or Cintron when there best competiton was Margarito which Floyd and all his fans called a bum in justifying him dancing around that fight, yet now they are both worthy all of a sudden that it is more conveiniant for him to fight the lesser opposition. (Williams won and Cintron lost-yet he's worthy all of a sudden if he beats the man that beat Marg and was knocked out by Marg himself but that makes them worthy)

[MaYaN_SuN]

You just went out of your way to post a story of an excuse on why one fighter shouldn't face a fellow undefeated prospect. You can't be ****in serious...Not only that but holy **** @ "above average speed/power." And I'm almost positive that MSG has been filled with people thanks to Cotto. It wasn't Judah or Mosley that filled that arena.

This post along with all of VLAD_OWNS and VIVA_MEXICO's posts should be moved to the vault of dumb ****s.




First he doesnt need Antonio Margarito, now he doesn't need Cotto :1lol:

I seriously hope for Cotto's sake that Mayweather doesn't try to dodge em.

[quntel]

THEY IS NO MONEY IN COTTO !

Floyd already does not get respect for non of his victories....
So it will be the same with Cotto

if floyd beats COTTO.. SO WHAT....He suppose to beat cotto he is P4P the best fighter in this generation....
AND after he beats COTTO you cotto nuthuggers will say well..............
"HE CANT BEAT WHOEVER YOU LIKE AT THE MOMENT"

THEY IS NO PPV IN COTTO THATS WHY HE PICK HATTON...

You mean to tell me AFTER COMING OFF A 2 MILLION PPV with Oscar PPV that Floyd is not at least going to DO 900,000 ppv is Crazy



This PPV is not Going Under 900,00 PPV

[Derranged]

I think Floyd is gonna hafta fight Cotto if he beats Ricky eventually. This isn't Margarito we're talking about, Cotto is a big name and may pose a threat and if Floyd doesn't fight him it will raise much criticism.

ay, Quntel, check this out, you went of your way to get all those stats, that's alot of research, and i got nothing but respect for you bro. but check it....the REAL reason Floyd Mayweather don't get enough respect as you mentioned earlier, is simple.....

"When Mayweather fights someone who IS "NOT" past their prime, people will see him as a "take-on-anybody' fighter. That's is the simple truth, and I never said anything negative towards Mayweather. With that said...lets stop all the "there-ain't-no-money-in-it" and fight with somebody that comes to fight.

Bring on Cotto!

[Horus]

Cotto doesn't draw, as evidenced by his ppv numbers for judah and mosley. He has no charisma and is shy around his own fans. He has slightly above average speed, and slightly above average power, and an average chin at best. in short he is a slightly above average fighter. People dont pay 50$ to see his caliber of fighter.
He would have lost to Judah had he not intentionally hit him low twice, imo he should have been dq'ed because of the blatant intent of these punches. for people saying PBF has to fight him, cmon, are you serious. what has cotto done to warrant a fight against the #1 pfp fighter in the world? beat judah by cheating, which he admitted to, getting a draw against a 36 year old fighter which could have gone either way. and he beat a bunch of scrubs, big deal, beat a legit opponent impressively and we will talk. fyi, this wont happen, cotto is a top 8 guy in the division, that is it. once he starts fighting the best in the division he will not win 1/2 of his fights.
IN SHORT NO ONE IS PAYING TO SEE PBF BUT ON A BOXING CLINIC AGAINST A SLIGHTLY ABOVE AVERAGE DRONE OF A FIGHTER. floyd might as well give hatton a rematch after schooling him and make another 15-20 mil. he wont come close to 10 agaisnt cotto, an average fighter with no charisma with a fan base that doesn't/ cant afford to see his fights.

LMAO.....

Funny ****

Cotto Fans WILL BUY A fLOYD FIGHT bEFORE THEY will buy a Cotto Fight..

This PPV is not Going Under 900,00 PPV

Dam this is plain and basic common sense on why floyd is not picking cotto.

[VERSION1 (V1)]

I do. And screw you, I may like Floyd more and hell I think Mosley might have won a close fight last night, but Cotto is a great fighter.

The only reason Floyd doesn't want to fight Cotto is that he is promoted by Arum. That's it. If cotto was under golden boy, he'd take the fight right away.

agreed 100%

[Greatwhitehope]

Cotto doesn't draw, as evidenced by his ppv numbers for judah and mosley. He has no charisma and is shy around his own fans. He has slightly above average speed, and slightly above average power, and an average chin at best. in short he is a slightly above average fighter. People dont pay 50$ to see his caliber of fighter.

I certainly would, would prove that Floyd is once and for all a class above Cotto's clearly the next best welterweight, he's undefeated and holds titles, there should be other things to worry about than just money.
