    Mayweather will be favored vs Cotto/Williams/Margarito

    Meaning you haters will not give him credit for a win and just say "he was SUPPOSED to beat them anyway"

    I'll give him credit for fighting either of those 3 guys, though for now replace Margarito with Cintron. Cotto is his probable choice, though I would rather see Williams.

      I think many would just call Cotto "the EASIER of the 3" when Floyd beats him

        Nah, Cotto is the only one to have cracked the top 10 p4p, though I see what you're saying. Floyd brings a lot of the hate on himself though, putting himself above greats like Robinson and Ali, then saying he's not fighting to prove anything to the fans.

          Cotto is a better all around fighter than Margarito and Williams, Williams and Margarito are dangerous to any welter cuz of their size.

            The only two worth a fight is Cotto and Williams. Both have titles, both are undefeated.

              Mayweather is expected to beat anyone he faces right now and although this is probably unfair it is the cost of being the boss.

                He would get credit for doing what the haters think he won't. I know I would.

                  In spite of all the criticism from boxing fans, Floyd is still at the top of the p4p list, is ranked the #1 WW in the world (was still after over a year of not fighting a WW until Hatton) and just won fighter of the year again, after winning two fights in which he was a pretty big favorite. With over 50 million banked from just 2 fights this year, I find it hard to feel sorry for him.

                    Excellent point. I'm sure Mayweather regularly gets emotional when he reads about how much pressure he is under to win fights but soon perks up when he dries his tears with hundred dollar bills and has a look out his window at the cars in his driveway.
