For Those Who Think Cotto Should Have to Continue Proving Himself to Get Mayweather

[Guest]

Since when does a contender have to justify a title shot oppritunity.

This coming from a Mayweather fan who makes an excuse for a coward not to fight any legitimate challenger in his own division? You're a joke.

To quote one of my posts from another thread:

I don't think Floyd categorizes himself as the welterweight champion. Everywhere he goes, he is addressed as the p4p best fighter in the world. Like Hopkins at light-heavy, he just happens to be at 147. He wants big fights against great fighters regardless of their ranking. Is Cotto considered a great fighter right now?

Is B-Hop fighting top light-heavyweight contenders or young deserviing 175lb title holders like Chad Dawson? No he just fought the Top 3 (at that time) P4P fighter in Winky Wright and is about to fight another Top P4P fighter in Joe Calzaghe who is like Ricky Hatton is moving up in weight to fight the champion.

Since when does a contender have to justify a title shot oppritunity. Genaro Hernandez was a solid champion. He was gonna get good money to fight Floyd Mayweather - a Silver medalist and hot prospect contender that HBO had an eye on.

Genaro thought that at 17-0, he would have too much experience for a young Mayweather and expose him for not being ready.

He was wrong. 9 years later, Floyd is still undefeated.

Floyd is a bronze medalist.

Who exactly did Mayweather beat to get a shot at Genaro Hernandez? What did he do to earn that fight?

LMAO....

Genaro Hernandez Was not P4P number #1 fighter in the World... at the time they fought..

But you knew that Didnt you...

who did he beat to b ein negotiations with Judah when Judah was WW champ?

Sharmba Mitchell..

The *****s are full of ca ca.

At that point, I think it's pretty fair to say that Floyd was already an established fighter. At that point he just turned P4P #1, and was an undefeated champion across 3 weight divisions.

Sin is just A FlameR

He doesnt used Logic to prove his Points...
He used correlations that barely Correlate...

I like to call these kind of PosteRs..

Thank you for setting me straight. The same point still remains.

Yes, Hopkins last 3 fights are against guys who were in the P4P at the time: Tarver, Wright, and now Calzaghe. Mayweather's last three are Baldomir (joke), Hatton (overrated and undersized), and DLH (washed up). That's a big difference. To make things worse, Hopkins is way past his prime and still fighting the best. Mayweather is in his prime and ducking the best. Fighting Cotto is not the same as Hopkins fighting Dawson. Cotto is an established star, whether Mayweather wants to acknowledge him or not.

No one said he was. But he was the champion of his divison giving a title shot to a prospect who hadn't beaten anyone to earn the shot. But of course when Cotto establishes himself as clearly the #1 contender at welterweight, a two-division champion, he still has more to prove, right? When Mayweather got his shot, he was nothing more than ESPN FNF fighter...

Pause right there.

Ricky Hatton

Universal P4P Top 10 fighter
Linear Jr.welterweight champion of the world
44-0 record.
2-division title holder.

It's funny when facts slap you in the face.
