why is Bad_Barracuda so jealous of the attention Cotto/Margo is getting? dude cant stand that people are excited about a fight that doesn't involve Mayweather so he has to downplay the significance of it.
Bad_Barracuda = This *****Comment

He sure was..
Put Cotto in Floyd's place..Oscar would have put that sissy on his back..to stay..
as for Baldomir
That rock-headed mofo went the distance with Forrest at 154...that's something Cotto could never do..Comment

of course all hardcore fans want to see floyd/cotto, but it ain't happening until cotto breaks into the bigger market of casual boxing fans.
What Cotto needs to do is start demolishing every welterweight out there to get the attention he wants. Cotto needed to destroy Mosley, but he ran in the last couple of rounds and got the decision... I think ultimately that hurt Cotto's box office appeal (not his appeal with Puerto Ricans though).
Cotto needs to destroy Margarito, and if he can't get a fight with Floyd he needs to destroy Williams, Clottey, and any other contenders at 147 and if he still can't get floyd he needs to start destroying 154 lbers.
That said, I don't think Cotto will destroy Margarito, but clearly outbox and outpoint Margarito. I'd be surprised if Cotto went toe to toe with Margarito, and if he did that's probably 2-4 years off Cotto's shelf life.
But Cotto needs some Vasquez/Marquez type epic wars to elevate his name among casual fans.
Floyds last 4 oponents
DLH - well he brings a lot of money, so he gets a pass.
Hatton - who had he destroyed to get a shot at floyd? except hanging for dear life agains collazo.
Baldy - a guy with 9 losses, who was losing on all scorecards to clotey untill the DQ. This guy had a fluke over an unprepared Judah and he became a worthy chalenger?
Judah - a guy who just lost to Baldy, ****ing baldy. he was unprepared but still he lost.
Now when it comes to cotto, he has to DESTROY all of the top WW to deserve a shot at floyd?
Another thing, instead of you guys criticising floyd for not fighting the best, you try to rationalise why floyd isn't doing it and actually have the nerve to criticise cotto for wanting to fight him. He doesn't have to destroy anyone, what he has been doing so far has earned him a shot at floyd. He is the #2 welterweight at this point and has done more at this weight than floyd has.
Floyd didn't fight Margarito because HE HADN'T DONE ANYTHING, and it didn't matter that he was offering a career high payday.
Now he doesn't fight cotto not because he hasn't done anything, but HE DOESN'T bring a high enough payday.
I've gave up on this guy already, **** him. As much as it pains me to say it, I wish he would just retire so others can FIGHT for that spot. Blessed with all the tallent in the world and this guy doesn't want to put them to the test against worthy chalengers. Instead he is talking about DLH 2 and Hatton 2. how can you guys defend that and call yourselves boxing fans.Comment

Destroy Mosly, Margarito, Williams, Clottey? Are you serious? Don't you think thats a tall order for anyone to do? Mosly dominated Collazo who almost KOd hatton in his previous fight. Margarito took the best shots of arguably the hardest hitting welterweight and kept comming. Floyd was suppose to destroy Baldy, but did far from it (he did dominate him though). Cotto did destroy Judah and Kintana, which are 2 more welterwights more than floyd did.

lets see someone argue that...Comment

floyd will smash on cotto...once cotto gets smart and leaves top rank the fight will be more likely to happenComment

Why is there such a big debate, we all know floyd will beat cotto in the ring.
Its just we want to see how floyd beats him.
But you guys are doing a good job already promoting the fight. fosho.
Floyd is so flashy arrogant and money minded, he only thinks buisness and effectiveness in buisness decicisons...
Why cant he be like marquez or cotto, uninteresting, dumb, cliche, simple,
ignorant in defeat vs Pacquiao.. damn that marquez was a sport.
lol.
you fools should thank floyd for giving you so much thread material. Without him this forum wouldnt exist.Comment
