Cotto Not Pleased With Mayweather's "Vacation"

[Feint]

I understand why Cotto would not be happy, and as a fan I would love to see him fight Mayweather, but at the same time I also understand why Mayweather would want a break. Aside from the pressures and expectations of being on top, there is your health to consider. I love this sport but admittedly it is extremely taxing on your health. You do have to consider your life after boxing.

In any case, there are always going to be "up and comers" to take on so your choices are to keep fighting until you eventually get your head knocked in or to simply step away when you feel satisfied with your career.

I'd like to see Floyd fight Williams, but I would settle for Cotto.

cotto is no real challege to pbf first he is to defensive which is a counter punchers wet dream second that body punching theory against floyd has failed time and time after time again last and least it would make for a close and boring fight and we all know who would win that. so cotto fight mararita hatton or some tune up in march and hope for de la hoya in june.

Cotto be a man and fight margarito! See if you can hang with him.

Cotto may be more of a threat than Hatton but I just don't see him beating Floyd. Hatton gave Floyd a little bit of trouble because of how fast he is with his footwork and how he crowded FLoyd, Cotto's not as fast on his feet and Floyd will able to get his distance to setup his shot's.

Anyway, this fight will happen all Cotto has to do is keep calling Floyd out like Hatton did and he will get his wish.

Be a man? I believe Margarito chose to fight Williams instead of Cotto. Cotto punishes Margarito.

I think Floyd would win quite easily. Well not easily by by a wide Margin. Cotto has proven to be quicker than some say but not quick enough to really catch Floyd. That straight right lead would tag Cotto all day. Cotto has the will of a lion though and he will put sustained pressure on Floyd for the full 12.

Why does Margarito's name even come up like it does. It's a myth, his greatness.

Please, he is really not this threat people want to make him out to be.

As for Cotto, Mayweather beats him any day. I am certain and I agree, the more he sings, the choir will respond. He will get his payday, because that is ALL it will be.

His "0" will go.

Cotto is a warrior and like a dedicated fighter he is willing to fight. When he retires then he rest untill then he fight whomever, great to read Cotto wants to fight.

Previous to the Hatton fight Mayweather hadn't fought in a long time why the hell is he taking a long vacation? Does the guy not see his fights and see that he is only throwing one punch at a time? This comes from not fighting enough. Mayweather just fought a smaller fight that gave him hell, Cotto is his size and should be even more dangerous. He could run from Cotto but for how long.

Hey, dumbass!

Margarito fought Williams cause there was more money in this fight and bob arum still hadn't sent a contract to Margaritos people so they went ahead with the bigger paycheck in Williams.
