    Seriously at least not now because it will prove that a bigger fight can be made if they wait even longer. Arum was on point when he said the average sports fan vaguely has heard of Cotto and even less for Margarito and with it being on PPV that won't help their popularity. Get your PPV's up if you trying to see Money.
    Now, the thread title and content of your first post indicates that in order to be worthy of Floyd's attention, you need to be a successful PPV fighter as emphasized by the bolded part I have quoted. Yet, when someone points out Baldomir as an example of how that hasn't been the case n the past, you say this...

    But that isn't what you stated in the threadtitle and initial post. Baldomir was never a successful PPV fighter, therefore, that contradicts what you state. Furthermore, you made this post.

    Here, you are practically admitting that Hatton is NOT a successful PPV fighter. As a matter of fact, Hatton NEVER HAD a PPV fight PRIOR to Mayweather.

    So you create a thread stating that in order for a fighter to be considered by Floyd as an opponent, they must already be established as a successful PPV star with more than 500,000 + PPV buys, but then state that Hatton wouldn't be able to do those numbers without Floyd? But that would mean that Hatton would had to had been an established and successful PPV fighter for Floyd to have accepted him as an opponent which is ovbiously not the case as you yourself pointed that out.

    There are more gems like that in the thread, but I believe I have made my point. Keep your e-points. I have no need for them.

            In one sentence u say that Cotto must get his ppv #'s up if he wants to see Floyd. Right? Ok, in that case, how do u justify Floyd's decisions to fight both Baldomir and Hatton, when prior to fighting Floyd, neither of them have ever had a succesfull ppv event? THAT'S where u contradict yourself my friend.

              I knew he would decline to recognize that contradiction. Its the nature of his character. I would post more, but there really is no further need.

                I didnt contradict myself. Again you must not have read the post, I said Id like to see them fight, but the reason it will wait is because of Cotto's prior numbers. Im just detailing why the fight is not in the near future, its because Floyd and his people want the most lucrative deals. Same reason he told Margo a couple years ago when Margo approached him why if they fought he would have to wait, because the fight would be bigger later. Baldy was Floyd's biggest guarantee at them time, Im guessing thats why he fought Baldy along with the fact that he could be the linear champ and also the biggest reason of all is that Baldy's NAME was at an all time high and it wasnt going to get any bigger because Baldy wasnt going to beat anyone else with a name at 147.

                  You spoke too soon, I only made a thread about why Floyd was making the decisions he is making, not that every move he makes I stand by it, you should ask Floyd if he is contradicting himself.

                      Whats even more funny is that many said the fight was close, if the fight was close as so many said after the fight, wouldnt a person want to see a rematch of a close fight? hmm
