Ok here's what I don't get...

[machotime]

So now that everyone here has proved that Bruseles, N'dou, Sosa were not top noch contenders, how much criticism would occur if Cotto fought these quality fighters back to back at this point in his career??

[SkillspayBills]

Cintron wasn't going to step in, lol. He already beat down Judah.

And Collazo...eh.......

You haven't been here for a little while so you missed the memo. Cintron called Cotto out to be his opponent for the 12th.

[javelin_fangs]

yeah....Spadafora's an all timer. His featherfisted "war" with Dorin....was..legendary. LMAO.

Are you going to do anything other than cherrypick tidbits and twist them in sarcastic ways? Just curious...

[Azteca]

Just talk man....

Cintron wasn't in serious talks with Williams for ****s sake. He ducked Cintron like the plague. He was not going to fight Cotto. Real talk, brotha.

Who's Cintron's promoter anyway?

Nah. It's fun. I'm just passing time pwning some n00bs at the time.

Do you mean "He ducked Williams like the plague"

If not then...what the ****?

First of all, no one called them top notch. Second, Cotto would get a lot of criticism, but it still wouldn't match up to the criticism Floyd has gotten for fighting them.

But let's go even further. I dare you to find an article on the internet where a boxing writer is blasting Mayweather for fighting N'dou. I remember that fight. Everybody and their mama had "a funny feeling" that N'dou was going to pull it out.

Oops...yeah I meant that. My bad.

How doesn't that make sense?

You know the lower champions are always willing to fight the champions above them.

Mayweather
Cotto
Cintron & Williams

Every one of them would gladly fight any name above them.

Main Events.

It must be nice making up stuff as you go along and then calling it real talk.

On some real though, Cotto is the only guy at 147 who has a real bone to pick with Mayweather not fighting him. Unfortunately for him though, Bob Arum did Mayweather wrong and pissed him off to the point where Mayweather doesn't want to do business with Arum. Arum could have made that fight anytime between 2003 and mid-2006. And it would have made perfect sense after the Gatti fight. Arum made Mayweather-Mitchell instead.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
