    So its obvious certain "fans" don't want Mayweather vs. Cotto so...

    So then I ask, who else is there?

    As a fan, I want Floyd to take on those who are perceived as challenges. That is what champions do. He is the #1 P4P Boxer in the world for a reason. He is currently undefeated for a reason. But I also understand that if he is going to continue to profit from the P4P status, if he is going to continue to call himself the game's best, if I MYSELF am going to continue to call him this era's best, he needs to fight the next threat to his throne. I guess I am the only Floyd fan on this board that sees it this way.

    But, certain posters don't feel that Cotto is worthy enough to step in the ring with Floyd. Certain posters don't feel that Cotto is important enough to step in the ring with Floyd. So then I ask, who is? Who is worthy enough to step in the ring if it isn't Miguel Cotto? If there is no one, then what should
    Floyd do?

    If Floyd doesnt fight the winner of Margarito/Cotto by 2009 then he should just retire.

        I'm sorry, sir. I was distracted by a glorious apple bottom. Could you repeat that question?

          Losing credibility in who's eyes? Yours? You give yourself to much credit. I could point out so many contradictions from you in your thread that it would make you call your internet provider to cancel.

          I'm asking a valid question. I need not post examples showing where certain posters have expressed their opinions on Cotto's position.

                  I don't need to. The body of their work speaks for itself. You can't tell me that a poster who dedicates most of their time on this forum to discredit and belittle a possible opponent for Floyd and also create reasons or justifications as to why a fight isn't happening actually wants the fight to happen.

                  Just because they may end or begin their post with, "I want to see the fight like everyone else". A fan who wants the fight to happen will spend their time discussing the possible outcome of the fight, the implications of the fight, WHY the fight should happen. Certain posters here are doing just the opposite.

                    But it doesnt work like that, you can talk to youre blue in the face about wanting to see it now, but it wont do any good. The more reasonable thing is to discuss whats the hold up and the holdup is because the fight will be bigger later on.
