As much of a boxing fan as I'm (and from PR), it is not a good fight for Mayweather, especially because he has nothing to prove in boxing and already is a future Hall of Famer. I think he is ducking a Cotto fight, because is the smart move at this point of his career and he can get away with it in the American market. Neither him or Cotto need each other, both of them have accomplished more than enough in boxing. Anyway, are Americans really going to give Cotto credit if he beats PBF? Common, Paul Williams was given more credit than Cotto, and rank higher in America, without having to prove his worth, simply because he was tall and American. But this is another topic.
    To answer the bold you can't give credit to **** that ain't going to happen. Meaning Cotto ain't going to beat PBF because Cotto is not better than PBF. I have no doubt in my mind that when they fight PBF will win and it won't be a tough fight.

      This is the fight the entire boxing world wants to see. How can you say they've proven more than enough. Floyd is 30 and Cotto is 27 and are both in prime condition.

      And as far as Williams now...he shouldn't even be mentioned in the circle of WW after Quintana exposed him.
      They have proven more than enough. I want to see the fight too, but if it doesn't PBF will still go down in history as one of the greatest. Maybe not so much for Cotto, because he doesn't get the credit he should. I don't know what ur smocking rocks statement is about, but it's ok. Anyway, Paul Williams should have never been mentioned in the circle of WW's before the Quintana fight. He was not at that level and still isn't.

        Everyone acts like the burden is on Cotto to make this fight happen. The burden is on Mayweather and Cotto. Mayweather needs Cotto for his legacy than Cotto. Mayweather is claiming Goat and he intends on retiring soon. Without Cotto it's gonna be pretty tough to do that. Cotto isn't claiming ATG just yet so the burden of time isn't on his shoulders. With that said this fight will happen, mayweather won't be able to resist the payday. Only way this doesn't happen after Oscar is if Oscar wins and it goes to a rubber match.

          in which case if that happens, thankfully that ATG **** goes right out the ****en window.

          won't happen though, floyd's too good a fighter.

          the cotto / mayweather fight will happen. makes too much sense.

            PBF has yet to prove he can handle a war. His Fighting doesnt sell PPvs his mouth does. and people only watch to see him lose. IMO he should never be mentioned as a G.O.A.T. or a great anytime soon till he has a war like hagler,hearns,leonard,duran,chavez,arguello,prior, monzon,ali, frazier, foreman just to mentiona few. Pride and Heart make a fighter great, not money.

              I see Floyd doing more damage to Oscar this time around.

              That boy is just good. I think he beats Oscar, Cotto and then needs to hang them up. If his body is "breaking down" like he and his therapist claims, a loss is guaranteed if he continues.

                LOL his body isn't breaking down. It's a setup to the excuse he'll use after his first loss. The kid has barely taken any punishment in his whole career.

                  Basically, I want Cotto-Mayweather, but it could still happen.

                    Hatton looked good at welterweight, but just because he lost to the P4P best, he goes running scared down to jr welterrweight to take more easy fights.

                    DLH and PBF are fighting again which will spin alot of interest (and cash) but the result will be the same.
                    It make sense that Hatton and Cotto should fight. Then the winners and losers fight each other. This would return massive PPV, great fights, and give us a clear indication who is truly the best.

                    Unfortunately though Hatton takes one loss and goes back to taking easy fights I like Hatton but his promoters/handlers etc are useless fools.
                    Hatton looked good at WW? When? Against who?

                      Why does he have to be in a war? That makes no sense at all. If he beats Cotto easily without going to war wouldn't that just prove that he is that much better than the fighters of his era. PBF has shown plenty of heart and pride over his career. Its doesn't matter if people pay to him lose as long as they pay is what matters.

                      And people who don't even know PBF know his body isn't breaking down. **** is incredible. Can I get tonights D.C. lotto numbers too?
