Sooner or later PAC is going to take another loss because all the big fights for him r against naturally bigger guys and his power won't hurt them! He can't knock out floyd, cotto or shane. And they know that. They hope his hand speed will get him a decision and his best chance of that is against Floyd because he won't try to punch with him. He'll wait to try to counter and PAC will drop combos and get out range b4 floyd returns fire. Not saying it will work but that's the smart gameplan. Use his defensive nature against him! And Floyd better hope cotto does fall because I feel arum will bypass him. Floyd or cotto can beat him, so why let floyd be the one? If cotto beats PAC he's new p4p king and still with top rank. It's only smart, don't u think? And if Floyd wants the crown he'll have to take it from Cotto, then we'll see how bad he wants it
    cosighn, tho im not sure Cotto would be #1 p4p JMM would be 1 Cotto2 Pac3

      I'm denying this. Pac style in itself will never let a fight get boring.
      People haven't been really watching Floyd fight because other than
      Baldomir/De La Hoya, what fight has been boring? Floyd ain't going
      to have run from Pac, come on man. Cotto is the safer and more $
      fight for Bob Arum but Floyd/Pac would make more $ for Arum than
      a Cotto fight would. Since when is there an excuse like "Floyd/Pac
      would be a boring fight so we don't want to make perhaps the biggest
      fight in history"?

          Floyd whips Cotto all day anyday and when/if
          that fight ever happens come see me and we can bet as many
          points as you want.
          Come on Grustler, the answer to that is an easy one bro. They have the best chins in the WW division bar none, and both are widely known for their inhuman ability to take flush shots and ask for seconds. Cotto hits hard man, ask Carlos Quintana or Ricardo Torres.

            Pacquiao/Mayweather Jr would be a grueling fight and to say
            other wise is just an excuse. Cotto may not even get passed
            Clottey next month so what happened then? Everyone is
            talking as if Cotto is going to dominate Joshua Clottey? Don't
            see that happening. At this point Floyd will fight whoever
            makes sense and I am a avid believer that Floyd would spank
            Cotto anyway so if he's the man to beat then he will get his
            too.
            If cotto loses, you one they are gonna make the fight with Floyd. And cotto could lose, I personally don't think he will because I think he is a better talented fighter but I've got tons of respect for Clottey cuz he is tough as hell! I sure Floyd could win against top welters, but he's got to get in the ring with them first and that's what he's seemed reluctant to do

                Floyd Mayweather has a great chin as well and the best
                defense in the sport. Cotto would never be able to crack it.
                Floyd ain't no Torres, Quintana or Judah and I think many
                forget that. Mosley/Margarito took away Cotto's punch
                and made him have a difficult night, what makes people
                think Floyd can't? Honestly I want to hear Cotto say
                once in his career openly in the media that he wants to
                fight Floyd Mayweather Jr inorder for me to believe that
                he really wants it. Manny Pacquiao/Floyd Mayweather Jr
                is the best fight to make after JMM/PBF because it just
                makes more sense.

                  Na, Cotto already took a step back after his controversial lost to Margarito he shouldn't fight Mosley again a victory vs Mosley will do nothing for him. He should get Pacman while Mayweather fights Mosley. You wouldn't want Mayweather to fight Pacquiao and then retire. While the winner of Cotto and Pacman can fight the winner of Mayweather and Mosley.

                    i aint saying that pac/floyd is boring, just saying that pac/cotto will be MORE exciting than pac/floyd. you can't deny this.

                      nah, cotto and mosley have unfinished business. mosley is #1 and cotto is #2. they have to meet to determing the WW champ. the winner fights floyd for the lineal championship
