Brass Tax: Does Mayweather Fear Cotto?

[Motofan]

I dont think so. Floyd just wants Cotto to become a bigger name so he can make as much money off fighting him as he can. If Cotto was a big name (to the general public) this fight would be made already.

[ElGranLuchador]

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

exactly plain and basic common sense

[moin126]

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

cotto is a *****. why is he fighting gomez? huh, He barely beat mosely who was over the hill, and mosely went in with a anti-boxing attitude.

So you think floyd is scared? and the money is a excuse? Then why fight someone who you won last time with a split decision? Isnt that a risk?

he wasnt scared of hernandez or corrales or castillio or a undefeated hatton, or a winning streak baldomir.
He keeps beating these guys making them look c-class. Then you come up with the next name its sad.

Homie I feel ya pain, but dont buy inot that **** BOY bull**** man. Cotto is far from a ***** and I think he will give a Floyd a good fight but there is no way in hell he will beat Mayweather.

I'm with you on this one. And I hope everyone who is claiming Mayweather is "scared" of Cotto actually puts their money (and lots of it please) where their mouths are so we can keep the odds down on Mayweather.

initially my gut feeling was floyd would win a split decision in a duran vs leonard type of fight.the more i think of his excuses the more i think they're all bull****.floyd thinks he has nothing to gain therefore it isn't worth the risk.he knows he has to much to lose vs cotto.

[TravelinMan]

He doesn't fear him. No other fighter fears another fighter.

But he doesn't want to take the risk. He knows he's going to have to dig down deep.

that's when he was a ****ing nobody,he had the world to gain.cotto,a *****? i guarantee you you'd **** your pants in the ring vs cotto before you would vs floyd.the ****ing nerve of these ****s.calling baldo a c class fighter is a compliment,he beat zab who had a class talent on the basis of being over looked and being tough as nails.

floyd is a *****.

HaHA.. Damian is real with his ******** too. The man is serious.

I have some friends in Vegas who do some wagering but this man right here is a heavy hitter. ^^ Real deal.

[!! Shawn]

I have a feeling that Floyd is becoming incredibly insecure with his ability. He probably doesn't think he can beat Cotto.
