Mayweather Jr.'s excuse to not fight a legitimate WW "They don't sell".

[Deja_Vous]

There is a huge difference here because Floyd was raised as a fighter.
Cotto came in to the gym to lose weight because he was a fat little kid who wanted to play baseball.

Had Cotto been brought up in boxing as child in diapers, Cotto would have been a thinner guy and he would have started his career at 130 becuase of his height.

But, who could cotto beat at 154? There was Forrest who is the equilant of a Gatti or a Baldomir. Who at 160? The exposed Pavlik would be his win. Anything else? Who was so dangerous when Floyd moved up?
Was Gatti dangerous? lol no he was old and shot.
Was Baldomir dangerous? No he was old, slow and just old and hit like a woman.
Was OLDH prime? lol see his bout against Forbes. ODLH was old, shot and old some more.
Ricky Hatton? Had Hatton moved up to 147, Cotto would have destroyed him too. Just see Manny Pacquiao at 140 vs Hatton

Cotto couldn't beat Vernon's spit bucket...the way he gets hit with uppercuts...NO WAY.

Pavlik would tear Jotto's head off his shoulders.

You must be joking.


Baldomir would have given Shane a better fight than Tony..

DAVID ESTRADA gave Shane a better fight than Tony's overrated ass.

Carlos took shots from Forrest that had Shane crying for his mama.


At least Baldomir didn't load his gloves and could fire a straight punch...

Tony CHOSE the UNRANKED Manuel Gomez over Mayweather.

Who can take a guy seriously that only had the DREAEDED Hercules Keyvelos on his resume??

Do you think Cotto would drop everything to fight Soto-Karas???

OF COURSE YOU WOULDN'T.


Arum played you fools like a cheap ass jukebox.

If he had 8 million to give Floyd he surely had enuff to cancel that Manuel gomez PPV extravaganza of his.

EIGHT million (3 FIGHT DEAL)to fight Tony and only SEVEN to fight Hatton!!!!!!

SINCE WHEN WAS TONY A BIGGER DRAW THAN HATTON????????????

LOL, and Floyd just beat up Shotba Mitchel! that sure ranks him as a top WW. He had 8 mill reasons, money on the table.......

[strugler]

Cotto fights the best........................Floyd is a ****etalker...........his words....................not mine................................

[Roger Mellie]

The funny thing is that Floyd, who's really a LIGHTWEIGHT, could move up EVEN MORE and beat Pavlik, who would never land a punch on him.

Cotto wouldn't even be able to compete at 154. It's questionable whether he's even Top 5 at 147.

So why doesnt he fight world lightweight champ Marquez at lightweight?

[Del Coqui]

Im just trying to get people to open up their eyes and realize what Floyd has done and continues to do fighting through multiple weight classes as he has, since you dont know who Cotto can beat at 160(his fifth class) and I can tell you who Floyd beat at his fifth, fourth, third, and second weight class, I think you and all boxing fans need to be a little more hesitant when you want to criticize Mayweather.

what he has done, yes, what he continues to do, no!!!! He's fighting a LW at WW........

Exactly what I just asked. Dont expect an answer

Not sure many understand Bob Arum. He is doing the same thing now that he tried to do with Floyd, Floyd was in the process of leaving Arum. He is doing the same with Cotto since Cotto wants to leave, trying to get him a big money fight(Pacquaio) to keep him around, but behind closed doors, the Pac fight will not get made unless Cotto was to sign another contract with Arum, promoters have their way of getting back at you, he wouldnt be mad if Clottey beat Cotto, believe that.

Vernon Forrest was beat by a feather fisted reality tv star
Or did you forget?
As I said, that version of Forrest is the equivilant to a Gatti, a Baldomir, an ODLH old shot out losing to no bodys.

Pavlik was afraid to fight Sergio Mora. So much for ripping peoples heads off. Hopkins was posed to be destroyed by Pavlik remember? The feather fisted reality tv star would have beat Pavlik too.

LOL, and Floyd just beat up Shotba Mitchel! that sure ranks him as a top WW. He had 8 mill reasons, money on the table.......

At least Shotbay was RANKED at 147.

Where was Manuel Gomez ranked??..LOL

8 million..........3 FIGHT DEAL....THAT is what is was.


8 mil to fight Tony and only 7 mil a piece to fight Hatton and Cotto.

DOES THAT MAKE SENSE TO YOU?????????

Even you can't be that simple.

I'm sure we will get some drool/semen infused floydstan logic as an answer,but it might take the call centre at mafia hq a little while to hash something together.....tick..tock..
