Can we agree that Floyd Mayweather is scared of Cotto?

[Iceta]

So you could agree Floyd is a cherry picker?? Why did he want to fight Cotto at 140 where he's drained and inexperience and not as popular? But yet he said he won't fight him at 147 cause he needs to get his PPVs up lol.

Shouldn't both Cotto and Mayweather be held to the same standards? Cotto blocked the fight from happening at 147 as well, because as mentioned before, Arum said that he would never put Cotto in the ring with a business man after Cotto barely squeaked by Mosley. And then he takes a fight that builds zero interest in the build up to it by fighting Alfonzo Gomez. That fight along with the Margarito-Cintron fight was the lowest rated HBO WCB telecast in the history of HBO's existence..

Gomez was a tune up for the Margarito fight.

Once Cotto destroys Pacquiao and he opts to fight Pacquiao instead of the winner. What will his excuses be for choosing to pursue a fight with Pacquiao and not the man who just defeated the very temporary #1 P4P? Can it be said once and for all that Floyd is scurred of the big bad Rican?

Nah, Floyd is scare of the whole WW division. Floyd doesn't fight Welterweights since 2006 when he fought the dude with 9 losses.

He's just been retired for the last 2 years. He instead fought a SUPER welterweight/Light middleweight in DLH in 07

Baldomir was more of a REAL champ than Cotto or Margo who won their belts in Vacant title bouts....(not saying Baldo could beat either)......

that dude is a pansy

lol@ Mayweather scared of the WW's....that would be like saying the WW's are afraid of the MW's...lol

Floyd was at a different point in his career. He would have fought him at 140
if it meant something,but we saw Cotto strugle in what would ve amounted to tune ups for Floyd. Floyd was going for the money. Besides if youre honest, Cotto didnt learn to box until he fought Mosley.

[Blue Heffner]

Cotto is not afraid of Floyd. They will fight.

[flyest1]

Floyd called out Mosley and wanted him bad. Even as a Mosley fan I can agree with that. I'm still mad the fight never happened.

[bobo_bobo]

Mayweather is gonna fight Berto with the excuse that he wants his WBC belt back.

[Ravishing]

Cotto and Floyd had an opportunity to fight just like Mosley and Floyd did too. You can blame Oscar wanting Floyd 1st, or Arum and Floyd not being able to work together, the excuses are endless.

But I don't think Floyd is literally scared of any fighter, but i do know that he sees certain fighters as risks that won't turn into a reward like say a fight with Pacquiao would if it happened today. But what if Pacquiao is beaten Nov 14th? Does that make Floyd vs Cotto then much more intriguing?

Floyd's had some of the best management in recent Boxing history. His fans look at it as great business moves, while Boxing fans look at it as ducking. You'll never be able to convince either side...
