Miguel Cotto: "Mayweather, 147 Doing Well Without Him"

[Vasyl’s dad]

do these ****ing fan boys not understand how ****ing pathetic it is for them to hang around trying to discredit fighters now that there man aint around for them slob?

No, thats why they're Floyd fans.

[VIVA MEXICO!!]

WBA welterweight champion Miguel Cotto says the welterweight division is doing very well, even with the recent retirement of Floyd Mayweather Jr. There was a heavy buildup to a potential Mayweather-Cotto battle prior to Floyd making a decision to step away from the sport. [details]

plain and basic common sense. even if mayweather was still around he wouldnt be fighting the best at 147. hed be ducking and dodging like he always has.

Margarito is finally in the spot light thanks to Mayweather retirement.

margarito got in the spotlight when mayweather turned down $8 million to avoid this mexican bad ass.

[Point Blank]

boxing doesn't need a ***** ***** like mayweather.

[Mike_R]

its true- there are still great fights at welterweight without floyd.

which is exactly why floyd will be back. he'll get real tired of watching and not competing. i still want to see floyd vs. cotto/mosley/margarito

any one of those fights would have my attention

The only time Margarito got the spotlight was when he lost to Williams. What a bum

[MikeBrew328]

Of course all these welterweights are "doing well" now. They no longer have to stand in the shadow of a vastly superior athlete.

lol your right... It really doesn't feel like "THE BEST" are fighting each other...Shane Mosley vs. a bum, De la hoya wants to fight Trinidad, Cotto is fighting a glorified journeyman.. Maybe Andre Berto will take over

[LOLORSKATES]

As Ive always felt having many competitive contenders is better than having one big name not putting on competitive fights.

Can we let this guy retire in peace! Stop talking about him! He is gone! A lot of you clowns sound real pathetic with your potshots at the guy who put a nice spotlight on the sport! He did do the best non hw numbers in less than a year in 2 consecutive fights! your fav fighter cant sellout the most anticipated bout in recent memory. deep down inside you clowns miss him and pray that he comes back and fights your guy! he's gone forever deal with it!

Floyd is not gone, he is merely taking a break. He will be back once the boredom kicks in. He will be a force once again.
