Steward disses Floyd

Cotto is a protected fighter. At 140, Arum stated that he'd consider a fight with Floyd, but it would be bigger in a year and a half or two.. In other words, I'm gonna protect Cotto by having him fight journeymen and 36 year old former champions, before I throw him in there with the p4p kings and big dogz at welter weight.Comment

Clottey and Williams at this stage in their careers are better than a confused Judah and a 36 year old Mosley.Comment

36 year old former champ who he barely beat.
Judah,
Quintana
and Urkal.
The #1 p4p comes up to WW and fights Mitchell, Baldomir and Judah. But Cotto is protected and Floyd is not?Comment

"For the last two years, Cotto has been willing to fight Floyd Mayweather and Ricky Hatton at what ever weight," Trampler said. "Get this straight: Cotto ducks nobody. Here's a scoop for you: there were numerous discussions with the Hatton people, but Ricky went up to 147 and then came back down. Miguel is staying at welterweight. But Hatton knows where to find Cotto when he wants to get it on.
After the Gatti fight
Miguel Cotto also sat ringside looking like a middleweight and he had to be thinking at this early stage “I don’t want any part of that action”. Top Rank concurs. Cotto is Bob Arum’s link to the future, and his relationship with the self proclaimed ‘Flamboyant One’ is contentious at best. Do any of us believe Arum would risk Floyd ruining his cash cow on his way to free agency? Would any of us buy a green, stylistic schizophrenic as a possible threat to boxing’s version of advanced Trigonometry? Look for Arum to nurse Cotto to millions and try to catch Floyd at welterweight in his 30’s. Three down. Now is the time to load up on the carbs.
