Why does Floyd get hate but Cotto doesnt?

[letsgobrady]

did you forget that Collazo was dropped by hatton, a natural 140 lb'er. Mosely was never a top welter. He beat an old Vargas 2X and was on his way to losing the first one. He beat a Luis Collazo that gave a 140lb'er trouble. wow. With hatton losing to Floyd, it just shows he doesnt belong at 147. what 147 lber would he beat? none. So why is Collazo's loss to a guy who cant beat anyone at 147 a good thing? He didnt even put up a fight against Moesely. Quintana was never a top WW until just now with a win over an over rated PW. Not saying PW isnt good, but he just peaked at the right time vs Marg and Marg had an off night. but i'll give you quintana just out of respect.

collazo was off balance because hatton was holding his head down

how does his win mean more by default? the oscar fight was a good fight i'm just saying that cotto fought shane at 147 a weight which he was better at than 154.shane and oscar accomplished more at 147 than they did at 154

i meant floyd's win over zab meant more than cotto's win over zab. my bad

When Cotto beat Zab he was coming off a loss to the best p4p boxer in the world and looked pretty good early on. When Floyd fought Judah he was JUST beatin by a 16 to 1 journeyman underdog and did the chicken dance part deux. just shut it.

I like Mayweather but Cotto is willing to fight everyone that he ducks. Mosley, Margarito, ect. Cotto is not worried about getting an L on his record ulike Mayweather. Mayweather picks and choose opponents that he knows he can beat while not fighting any threats. Was Hatton a threat? Nope, blown up in weight and the naturally smaller man. Maywether pretty much owned him from start to finish. Was Boldimir a threat? Nope. An average fighter that upset an over confident Judah and beat a shot Arturo Gatti. Was De La Hoya a threat? Nope, he was about 5 years past his true prime. Despite that, Oscar was still a good fighter and i give Mayweather a lot of Credit for going up in weight and fighting a naturally bigger man. Was Judah a threat? Nope, Spinks and Boldimir had already completely exposed him.

When Mayweather does not what the greats like sweat pea, Leonard, Hearns ect did and beat up and comers and unifying the division , then he will be recognized as one of the baddest welterweights of all time. Until then, he should be willing to fight fighters like Berto, Clottey, Margarito, ect. Real threats that would give him an actual fight. To be honest, even if Mayweather lost to any of these fighters, he would get more respect than he is now because he would be taking chances.

If I remember correctly, the odds were almost even. I think you're wrong there.

mayweather is also wasting his primes years being a clown, joining WWE ?
i mean do that when you really retire when you hit like 40 or something bu not now, cotto doesn't get any heat because he is taking everyone little by little,
