I didnt know this was wrestling. I'm expecting the next HBO card to open up with music and have Hopkins come out and call out Adamek, since that;s what it takes to get fights made.

Miguel Cotto doesn't normally call out opponents, but the unbeaten WBA welterweight champion issued a direct challenge to WBC titleholder Floyd Mayweather earlier this week. "I have no problem facing the other champions from the same division," stated Cotto, "but they want to remain as champions. I am open to facing any opponent. When [Mayweather] wants and decides to fight, he knows that Miguel Cotto is here....stop making excuses."And just what does Miguel Cotto think of the handpicking, sidestepping and excuse-making antics of Mayweather? "That's the thing he does for his entire career. He run from the really good boxer kind, he choose the others. I don't know how the people who know about boxing put him in the first place in the pound-for-pound champion."
Cotto says he sees vulnerablilities in Mayweather which he knows how to exploit. "He's quick. He's fast. But when you put pressure on him he closes his mind."

Originally posted by Addition View PostWhat difference does it make? Floyd still wouldn't fight Cotto because he doesn't bring the kind of money Floyd wants. So instead he fought Ricky Hatton who didn't even call him out.
Mayweather never would have fought Mosley, Cotto, Margarito, or Williams at 147, and they were/are the best in the division this decade. If Floyd didn't fight any of them, he doesn't deserve to be considered the best.
EDIT: GREAT POST ANTONIO!!!

Hatton did call him out, but the whole thing was talked about well before that happened. It was planned behind the scenes. That simply set the stage.

Arum offered Floyd 8 million to fight Tony then balked when Floyd said he wanted 10 each for Hatton and Cotto.
Bob said Floyd was delusional...
Mayweather went on to become Forbes magazine's 2nd HIGHEST PAID ATHLETE of 2007.
Arum was the one delusional.
When asked DIRECTLY by HBO announcers on seperate occasions..Cotto DUCKED behind his managers.
"I fights who my peoples tells me to fights"
LOL
Those are the word of an insecure *****...not a confident fighter looking to fight the best.
