So... Any Mayweather fans actually getting Irritated yet?

[THE REED]

Along with that Ray Leonard kept denying that he would ever fight Hagler. Leonard also retired. But the biggest thing is that Leonard waited until he saw something as in Hagler slowing down with his fight with John Mugabi.

PBF could feel like Cotto takes punishment to give it. So PBF could feel like if Cotto remains undefeated and cleans out WW he will have been through wars and probably be slowed down a bit.

Just a random thought.

Well honestly... I think in floyds head... he truly believes he can beat anybody... i dont think he thinks... cotto can beat him... i really dont.

[tredh]

With the challenge that lie ahead of Cotto (winner of cintron/margarito), how "huge" will this be if Cotto were for some reason reason to lose? If this indeed what Floyd is what is doing, its a very risky gamble. Unless maybe that's what Floyd wants.

Its a very risky gamble but the same one many others have played sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't.

Well, if Cotto loses to Marg or Cintron, then he it shows he wouldn't really deserve a fight with PBF. (Although I think Cotto has done enough to earn a fight with PBF right now)

Never said that and if I implied it I surely didn't mean to. Because I agree with you that. But at the sametime you have to take into PBF's age and 147 is 4 weight classes above where he started. Cotto is younger and only on his 2nd weight class.

Does any feel like what PBF is doing in terms of a fight with Cotto is the samething Sugar Ray Leonard did with Marvelous Marvin Hagler?

Not saying it is but this story has some similarities.

I kinda understand your point.....I agree to an extent.


Off topic: Your K state boys are looking pretty good man....Beasly did his thang last night...They got a tough one coming up against Wis. I think yall gaurds are stepping up when they need to. Good luck to yall homie!

No, Leonard played mind games with Hagler by saying that the fight would take place, then continuously canceling it. Once he seen the John Mugabi fight and seen how Hagler started to show his age and his legs were noticeably slower, he took the fight.

Mayweather is clearly avoiding Cotto. He is fighting other names that would not generate as much money as Cotto/Mayweather would. The De La Hoya or Hatton rematch would not be nearly as big as Cotto/Mayweather and he knows it. Floyd also never directly said that he wanted to fight Cotto. He simply doesn't want to fight Miguel. A fight between him and Cotto would be the biggest fight that could be made in the sport.

I don't really like K-State its just I want to see them do good because Beasley is from D.C. just like me. Want to see a hometown boy do good you know? I like Georgetown for real. But thanks and good luck to Memphis. Georgetown owes yall some get back.

Im a huge Floyd fan... I see his talent and its unbelievable...

But honestly.. I dont want another Oscar rematch... its bull****... fight the best or dont fight...


Its so irritating for me, because i see how TALENTED this man is, inside the ring... but he really wont fight any of the threats in his weight class...

I think he could beat Cotto... but the point is moot if he wont fight him...

I am a LITTLE torn though.. because i dont think Oscar SUCKS as much as he is depicted in this forum... he is the only fighter to give Floyd his closest fight on the scorecards to date... But I for one, didnt think it was even close to a split decision...

Conclusion: Fight the best, Or dont fight at all...

YOU?!

[THE REED]

YOU?!

What I dont get credit?!

I always try to be as honest as I can be on here... no matter the topic... even ROY!
