Who Would Mayweather Rather Not Have To Deal With?

[Burner]

Come to think of it, I think Floyd would prefer that Margarito beats Cotto. That way, he can discredit Margo's past losses, and say that its not worth fighting him, therefore avoiding the fight once again. Floyd will say that Margarito will need to rematch Williams first. On the other hand, there will be no more excuses for Floyd is Cotto were to win. Floyd will have no choice but to either retire, or fight him.

Im starting to think he doesnt LIKE Cotto....He might end up fighting the Judah-Mosley winner.

That's a lie, he never said that. Floyd can't lose to someone as slow as Marg, Baldo tried to do the same thing that Marg would do (granted Marg has much mroe power) but their speeds aren't that much different and it wouldn't be that difficult of a fight to score.

Floyd didn't say that? Where were you when he did? Because he did.

Cotto will be the bigger money fight, so Floyd is likely hoping for that.

I think this fight will happen in 2009

i've never liked the castillo / margarito comparison. the only thing these dudes share is the same bloodline.

castillo was a master inside boxer, who used distance as his ultimate equalizer along with his nasty left to the cuerpo.

castillo could beat you in a variety of ways, he effectively chased down boxers and his other stalk and kill you method can go w/out saying.

it'll be easier however, to see if there is any truth to the comparison after june 9th.

I had never heard the Castillo comparison. This is old? I'm biting? Cheesy.

yeah, before you scap would try and make that comparison to futility.

I'd say Margarito. Floyd flat-out ducked Margarito in front of everyone 3 years ago and was made publicly known that he wanted no part of him, that was when Floyd wasn't even the draw (if he's even really considered a draw) that he is now. Cotto is a dangerous opponent but in Tony's case, he cannot be hurt or knocked out by Floyd and would pressure and chase Floyd all nigh much better than Castillo. Tony throws and misses a lot of punches but the ones that do land, they seem to hurt like a mother ****er.

Wow..we agree on something..I just posted that.......

Cotto is smaller.....Cotto has a suspect chin...Cotto has suspect stamina( last 4 rounds of SSM fight)....Cotto has a shorter reach......Cotto doesnt have a high workrate.

Marg is the COMPLETE Opposite.

Still stuck looking at physical traits and attributes.

It's about styles and matchups. Floyd can dance around Margarito in his sleep.

yes, margarito was the first.

cotto is now the second.

we'll see who gets him after the 9'F.

I think there's something to it. Margarito has decent timing as well like a pre-shot Castillo. I just said in certain senses though..

It's the same line of thinking that led to Paul Williams beating Cotto and Mayweather
