    fighting oscar once is permissable. same with fighting hatton. twice for both? you're officially the biggest ***** in boxing. regardless of accomplishments or excuses you can come up with to try to justify your bitchassness. the ww division is deep with talent right now and floyd won't even get on the sand to test the water out. straight biiiiiiiitch.

      Why offer the fight to a guy who has publically turned it down before an offer has even been made. That's why Arum went on the record to say "when he (Floyd) shows interest in the fight, then we can sit down and talk numbers" Until then...................

        Listen dood, you, me and Stevie Wonder can SEE that a Mayweather-Cotto is way BIGGER than a Mayweather-Margarito. Arum knows that the May-Cotto is the BIGGEST fight to make. I don't want to hear about what happened the last time he offered Floyd. That sounds like an excuse. Test him. Offer him AGAIN, if this what you want. Listen, do you know how many times BUSINESS people have gotten turned down when they have offered somebody something? That doesn't mean that you STOP offering, it means that you offer something BETTER. Cotto is OBVIOUSLY something BETTER than the last offer Arum gave to Floyd Mayweather!

          He'll offer it to Floyd because of $.

          Much like strippers, I don't believe a word that comes out of a promoter's mouth.

            floyd would much rather dance with stars and engage in pretend combat.

              This is not about what he would rather do. You know for a fact if Arum offered the rite amount of $ for this fight, Floyd would sign 2mar!

                mayweather over estimates his value.

                the oscar and hatton fights were big because of oscar and hatton.

                arum isn't going to offer floyd oscar type of money.

                that will be his excuse until he's on his death bed.

                floyd don't want none of cotto end of story.

                    He won pretty much every round other than 2..... he just didn't look that great doing it. Never count a fighter out, I counted Calzaghe out everytime he had a close fight and looked bad.... against Reid, Bika, Sheika etc.. right after the Bika fight he dominated Kessler etc.. after Reid it was Lacy. Fighter can often surprise but i do think Hatton has two fights left in him at most and thats only if he learns to move his head again.

                      has he made anyone think differently?

                      when you analyze and spin it the way *****'s do - yes.

                      otherwise - taken at face value. no.
