He did not want to fight Cotto or Margarito.

Good call.

Well, the common reason has been to rest his body and hands which is probably true, but I think it has more to do with 'strategizing' his comeback
to the sport.

Without DLH II, he had nothing else to do.
He needed to fight the Cotto-Margarito winner.
He quit instead.

The honest truth is to avoid Cotto and Margarito.

" These guys are fighting each other and beating each other but nobody's beating money"

this sums it up

Hands needed to be repaired.

I wonder the age of most of the posters here. Who retires so they dont have to fight somebody? Thats ******, like fighters are kids and are told they MUST fight someone. Really I do wonder the age of you guys.
