      I liked what you said about nervouseness, if you don't know how to ride, it can suck the energy out of you. It is an art in itself and mayweather does it well. But it does not have much to do with fear. If you competed you probably know the feeling.
      But the actual fear of the opponent? No, when you fight your whole life you are not afraid to fight.

        I truly dislike making generalizations but if you SERIOUSLY think someone who believes he is the greatest fighter of all time is afraid of a fighter who he doesn't think is on his level, you are clouded by something other than intelligence.

            It's plain and basic common sense that Mayweather has a fear of any of the top natural welters.

                Mayweather is scared of a true Welterweight which Cotto is so yea he's scared of Cotto. Mayweather saw how badly Cotto pounded Paulies face in

                  Similar to Mayweather v DLH . Probably opening somewhere around -200 for Floyd and closing around -160 to -175

                    The fraud knows exactly who he is - a handpicking bully who carefully selects overmatched competition. He knows Cotto is a totally different animal than anything he has faced in years - a young strong confident powerful determined clever and relentless beast who will fight to the death to do that Puerto Rican flag just honor. Fraud has already disqualified Cotto from his list of potential future opponents, as he did Margarito.

                    Fraud acts ****y and is generally arrogant but he turns into a coward and a ***** when the name Miguel Cotto enters his ears. that's the true floyd coming out. "I will retire from boxing, boxing (COTTO) won't retire me"

                    Froydian slip? he knows the fraud will b exposed by COTTO
