    Facts are facts.
    And Gomez is what?

      Cotto would take it it was offered to him.
      Oscar came calling? If i recall correctly, it was Floyd who was screaming out for a rematch. He said unless he gets a rematch with Oscar, he's going to stay retired. So much for the much needed break. He's fighting Bigshow at the end of the month.

          Gomez is a "stay busy" fight, while Cotto awaits the winner of Cintron/Margarito.

            Facts are facts.
            Ask yourself One Question...
            The Question is Who wouldnt fight Oscar...??

            If Oscar ask Cotto to fight would cotto fight him..??
            If Oscar ask to Margarito fight would Margarito fight him..??
            If Oscar ask Manny Paciquo to fight would Manny Fight him..??


            Oscar Stands Right Behind Floyd,Roy,Bernard as one of the best in his generation..

            He has earned He status and earned the right to fight whoever he wants whenever he wants....

            So has Floyd now....


            Cotto hasnt earned it yet, he is no position to offer a fight to Floyd..
            Floyd has to offer the fight to Cotto


            Just like Oscar had to Offer the fight To Floyd...

            U have to earned your respect and Status in boxing you just cant ask for...

                That was after he defeated Oscar. He said he was "retired" and then Hatton came calling. He knocked him out and said he was gonna take break.

                Of course it's no secret that he was open to a Oscar rematch, as previously said, who is he to refuse the biggest money fight possible?

                  nawe man, after the hatton fight, i think it was merchant who asked him about his plans and mayweather said the rematch was the only possibility, if not, it was a 2 year break.

                    I totally agree with you, but i was responding to the poster who posted that Floyd is ONLY interested in fighting "GREAT FIGHTERS" Yes, Oscar WAS great in his day, but those days are far gone. He's nothing but a leprachaun now. If you're lucky enough to catch him and land a fight with him, then you're rich. I would'nt call a fighter who's lost 4 of his last 5 fights, still great!
