    2nd....Judah gave floyd alot of trouble and has a HUGE NY following.....they dont like each other...Id watch it.

    If Margarito KO's judah like in the first round or some ****.....I could see Floyd entertainig that option.
    Dela didnt need to throw a fight with Bhop to get him with GBP...

    Margarito will always be avoided by some.

      Lol Cotto passing up Oscar when he's guranteed to make millions. Coming from Floyd fans that's funny.

        The point is is that if Cotto wants to fight Floyd he shouldnt fight Oscar because he will lose...then Mayweather-Cotto will never happen.

I'm not so sure DLH will get all the terms, hopefully the fight is at 147 but this will be an interesting fight to watch.
          You dont look ******. It's still a close fight. The stipulations mean a lot though as far as glove size and weight goes. Cotto relies more on the 8 oz. gloves than Oscar does. And the weight...the weight is self explanatory.

            There's no gimmes at 147. Cotto needs to fight the best fight for him financially. Beating Margarito and Williams isnt automatic. Even Clottey and Cintron to a lesser extent.

            I'm a realist. Cotto being hittable makes him vulnerable. He's done what he's had to do to earn the pay days, so he should go after them now.

              Cotto wont lose to Dela ..just like he didnt lose to Mosley, Judah.. Paulie..or who ever else you picked against him.

                if at 147 Cotto wins & we all get to see Cotto / Mayweather. If ODHL wins, then mark my words, I'm not buying ODLH/ Mayweather 2. There first fight already hurt the sport enough, by bringing non boxing fans in for a boring night. I'll be routing for Cotto to make ODHL look old & silly & hopefully knock um out.

                  Well that makes sense..I think he would lose to Floyd..Williams..Clottey and beat Cintron.

                  I think if he loses hes robbing the sport of our eras biggest fight which is unfourtanate.

                  I guess its "The World Awaits II"

                    I wouldn't be surprised one bit if Cotto beats the aging Oscar De La Hoya. If Cotto can make it to the late rounds which I think he will, he will beat the tiring Oscar down the stretch. You can say what you want but Cotto's defense seems to be improved to me. He was allot harder for Shane to hit then allot of people were thinking including me.

                      I hope this fight is made, didnt Oscar say he was moving down to 147? Im sure this fight is already planned..


                      Cotto barely beat Mosley, and Mosley doesnt hit as hard as Oscar...
