    The best fighting the best.

    And in the fight after that, Bernard Hopkins is going to fight Ivan Calderon at LHW so he can take over the #2 p4p spot if Pac loses to Hatton and Floyd beats JMM.

        second of all, there has NEVER been any ongoing discussion between mayweather or cotto for a fight.

        third of all, cotto has NEVER called floyd out by name...."i fights whoever my people tell me to fight."

        you dudes need to give it up, and quit acting like mayweather is ducking that bum.
        i know cotto has a fight, but when the oportunity arose in the past mayweather downplayed cotto, and yes there have been many discussions of a fight between the two, it was stated by cotto, i can't make him fight me, i believe margarito has said the same, and everyone knows cotto does not call anyone out, came from his own mouth many times also. but it's real convienent that almost everyone has a fight on tap now that matweather is set to come out of retirement. oh wait there's mosely, but wait, that's right mosely ain't on mayweathers level right, but marquez is? go figure

          it's true arum offered mayweather the margarito fight, some years back.

          but arum has NEVER offered a cotto fight to mayweather. cotto doesn't call people out, but if you notice, the fighters getting the fights are the ones that actually call mayweather out, not say, "i fight whoever my people tell me to fight." until cotto, with his own mouth says, "i want to fight mayweather," its not fair to say mayweather is ducking him.

          also, shane offered floyd a fight for 8 million, let's wait and see if the marquez fight is for more than that, before we bring shane into the mix.

            In what year should floyd and cotto should have fought?

            it is crazy because i was having this discussion with another poster in another thread.

            In 2006
            The top 2 man in the welterweight division were
            zab judah and carlos baldomir.
            and Floyd Mayweather beat them both. before Miguel Cotto even came to the welterweight division.

            In 2006
            Miguel Cotto was fighting
            Ricardo Torres at 140
            Gianluca Branco at 140
            Paul Malignaggi at 140
            Carlos Quintana at 147 first fight.
            [By that Time Floyd Already beat Carlos and Zab and won the lineal WW championship.]

            So When do you think Mayweather vs. Cotto should have happen?

            2007
            Mayweather fought de la hoya in the biggest selling fight and boxing history
            and then Mayweather fought and destroyed Undefeated Ricky Hatton and highest grossing non-heavyweight fight not involving de la hoya.

            2006 : Cotto fighting at Jr. WW while Floyd was fighting Welterweights
            2007: Floyd was Fighting Jr. Middleweights and making history. and defeating another top undefeated fighter.

              i never said anyone was ducking, but if you're suppose to be the p4p king but don't fight the top guys in your weight class, fights that would make crazy money, and many in between, something should be said about that, in which it has. now mabe mayweather fighting marquez is a tune up, cause that's all i can see it being( floyd will knock marquez out obviously) then his next fight imo should be mosely. mabe this is the second comming of mayweather and he does wanna prove he's the greatest of all time. it's not about hate, it's about the best fighting the best to become atg.

                When you been away 2 years....you take what is called a comeback/tune up fight.

                Cotto fought Jennings...oh and Gomez remeber.
