    Hatton/Lazcano, if a poll was made would be Hatton at least 90%, there are many fights where that happens, even Oscar/Forbes Im sure.

In all reality Cotto is not a household name & no one knows who he is outside of boxing, but on the flip-side Floyd is a SUPERSTAR!! If the fight was signed today it is a HUGE MEGA FIGHT...at least for Hardcore Fans & some casual fans, but say around this time next yr, if Cotto wins his next few fights (impressively) & gets more national exposure (advertising, other ventures out of boxing) & Floyd is still out there (undefeated) in the mix then the fight becomes A MUST SEE SPORTING EVENT!

          It is a BIG difference between the 2 & Floyd understands the business of it! He is just simple waiting for Cotto to gain more "steam" so the risk will be worth the reward... Just for the record WHEN the fight comes off I got Mayweather by 11th T.K.O.
          ok, if the fight happens before the end of 2009, i'll bet whatever points you want that maywether loses the fight....

            When you're running around town calling yourself the best in the world, and u carry the #1pfp title, people tend to hold u to a higher standard. The difference between me and u is, im not defending the above for those matchups. U on the other hand, bend backwards to make excuses for every one of Floyd's so-called "business decisions"

              yeah because of the weight disparities or skill.. you can't compare forbes v. de la hoya to mayweather v. de la hoya and if your trying to suggest that then you should go please sit in the corner and think about what you have said.

Problem is, some fans get too involved in whats in the best interests of certain fighters. Thats none of our business, nor should it be our concern. These fighters have attorneys, advisors, promoters to deal with that.
                  Read my first post again... Ive never said it was ok for floyd to wrestle, dance, or anything besides boxing! What I said was this is a BUSINESS & to fully maximize the potential of this fight, they need to wait it out for at least another year!

                      I'm ashamed to say I haven't been able to and have yet to see Dawson fight
