    I think Cotto was more expose than anything else in the Margarito fight, That fight is the first fight where Cotto was push beyond is limit and he couldnt adjust/cope... Mayweather has been push beyond is limit so many times and he has respond at all times and i think that was the difference between Mayweather and Cotto.

    If Cotto can toy with Margarito in the first 5 rounds then i wouldnt want to imagine what someone like Mayweather would/could do to Margarito in a 15 round fight, Margarito even manage to make Cotto look like Pernell Whittker in their fight.

      Yeah, but all you will hear is Cotto had the guts, Cotto this, Cotto that...these same people don't care about the bad blood between Arum and Floyd. They think Floyd should just fight those guys and fight for Arum even when he is unhappy with his promotor not geting him big fights or paying him his worth. Dlh left, Floyd left. They wanted to do their thing. Margs and Cotto are happy to cash their checks. Arum is cashing in a bigger check on them.

        Mayweather would never stand in front of Margarito long enough to let him unload. Mayweather would box and counter punch Margarito to a comfortable and clear UD.

          Thats because people like to support anything to do with their favourite fighter, And if that means supporting a promoter like Arum even when his wrong then this fans would do it.

            We aren't talking about Cotto.

              Mainly for the first reason as astated Money May will be on his horse all night. he will only throw one punch at a time and run run run from Margarito.

              1) he won't stay in front of him and exchange
              2) He doesn't have the heart and is not battle tested
              ofoucrse not
              hes to good
              his defense is better
              his feet are better
              and his counters are sharper

Anyone that watches boxing and knows boxing knows that at the time zab judah was the most dangerious fighter in the division. The same guy that knocked out cory spinks, the same cory spinks jermain taylor was having a hard time landing a punch against. So if floyd is so scared like you guys say why would he challenge and commit to fight this guy?

                Since I obviously don't know? Or could it be that I never considered Zab to be the most dangerous fighter in the division?

                lol, I was the one at my cousins house the night of Zab/Baldo telling everyone that Zab had a fight lined up with Mayweather pending a victory that night.

                But I didn't know about it.



                Floyd is afraid of the prime welters. He said it himself he wasn't trying to see any welterweights. Then he retired right before a winner of Margarito/Cotto was known. Tony and Miguel aren't a 135 pound Castillo. They're bigger fighters with bigger punches who happen to be as young or younger than Mayweather.

                Floyd has fought nobody worth mentioning at 147.

                I wonder why?

                  Doesn't matter. Miguel was faster, a better boxer and smarter than Tony.


                  We seen how that worked out for him.

                  It didn't.

                  Floyd hasn't beat anyone with Margaritos size, strength and stamina.

                    Saying a fighter is afraid of someone after all he's done is boxed is whole life is just pathetic

                      1. Cotto wasn't exposed.

                      2. The question should be.. WOULD Mayweather have taken that much damage?
