But Mayweather only fought the "tough" guys when they were smaller or washed up. He NEVER took on the best from the Welterweight division despite having 2 years to do so. Cotto has already tackled 3 greats from the division, and will likely play it out like that the rest of his career (following Saturday's contest).
He gets a break because he actually faces tougher, larger, and in-their-prime opponents.
Mayweather took the cupcake route to 39-0 and then got out of dodge when there was nothing left for him except the "good" fighters.
