If Cotto loses to Gomez or Margarito...

[AntonTheMeh]

Whenever Floyd retires there will always be somebody at the time some people will say he is ducking or he should have fought , Cotto is the flavor of the mth right now , when he beats Cotto they will find somebody else and the pattern will continue all the way untill he retires , Floyd never wins in the minds of the haters and he cant fight everyone , its so ironic that the haters wanted Hatton and they all said Hatton would destroy the runner , now thats dust they jump on Cotto with the same story ,,,,,, Cotto must not loose ala Margo vs Williams if he is to get a fight with Floyd in the next year or so and Hatton needs to lose to derail a rematch , if Cotto keeps winning he will force the fight with Floyd , it takes the fans and public to push for the Cotto fight and its already got some momentum started , I think the fight will happen with the only worry being can Cotto get over Margo , I think he can but its a very dangerous fight for him .

this is what i mean.
the idea of always being someone else was only true after he fought baldomir and started crying about his retirement and a fight with oscar.we are not talking about anytime else,he's retiring soon,cotto is now,that's the fight everyone wants to see.

i'm not a hater, but even the haters didn't want him to fight ricky. no boxing fan has called for anybody except cotto for the past year+.

Whoever beats Cotto would deserve a shot. Number one contender...

No way , Hatton Floyd was the most wanted fight in years ( just check the archives here ) , Hatton and what he would do to Floyd dominated forums the world over for 3 yrs , it was a fight that had to happen and it was huge when it did .

I understand your point and I agree with you , Cotto is there now , but he has 2 fights to get past and Floyd has 1 , so nothing can happen untill next year and because of that a lot can change especially Cotto must not take a loss ,,,

Cotto deserves a shot right now. If he doesn't lose he is most deserving.

If Mayweather wants to go down as an ATG, he needs to fight the best. If he doesn't, he'll be simply remembered as a great talent, but never truly tested his talent to the limits. Cotto's ready and willing to fight him. It's on Mayweather now. If Mayweather avoids him, and Cotto unifies and dominates the division, he'll go down as the greater fighter.

I personally believe that if Mayweather refuses to fight Cotto it will tarnish his credibility as a dominate welter weight but not his previous accomplishments in the lighter divisions. Mayweather is great but in order to truely claim dominance in the welter weight division he needs to fight Cotto. Paul, Quintana, Tony, and Cintron don't deserve to call out Mayweather.
