Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Mosley Will End Up Like Hatton, De La Hoya

[lskjersey]

What a moron. You're gonna take it against mosley getting outboxed by cotto when you yourself didn't even have the guts to even just step in the same ring with Cotto or any other legitimate welterweights for that matter opting instead to fight Jr welterweights and overblown featherweights. How can you claim to be the best when you are afraid to test yourself against tough, stern oppositions that can really challenge you. Jeez take some brain vitamins and grow a pair.

here we go another person who has not been watching boxing. It is recorded FACT that Cotto turned down fights at 140 and his team turned down fights at 147 with mayweather. do some research befor you pretend to be a boxing fancier. your not a fan your a groupie.

FYI Hatton walks around above 160 floyd walks around at 150

not only that, ppl also fail to remember when floyd was having his reported problems with the IRS, shane mosley had some **** to say about that. when floyd gets personal with shane, everybody feels bad for the guy and calls floyd a bully and immature.....it's funny.

shane's not crying, he has the right idea. he says once they get in the ring, their fists will be the only things talking. everybody needs to sit back and enjoy this ****, it hasn't even started yet. wait till the 24/7 debuts!



good post.



a close fight is not a bull**** decision, whether it's a UD, a SD, or a draw. how many times in a fight, have there been rounds that were too close to call, and you saw them going one way, and somebody else watching the same damn fight, saw the round for the other guy.

personally, i had clottey beating cotto by a point, but watching that fight, there were about 4 rounds that could've really went either way.

when a fight's as close as that, no matter how it turns out, you can't say it was robbery or a bull**** decision. what is bull**** however, was that one judge scoring the oscar-mayweather fight for oscar....that wasn't a close fight at all.

LoL Good post man.But the reason why you call some fights bull its a matter of perspective know? I had the hoya may fight tied goin into the 10 but money pulled off the 10 11 and 12th good job my money

i think Floyd is underestimating Mosley's performance against Margarito. It was (to me) one of the best fights of his entire career and Floyd better bring his A game to beat him. Some of Floyds comments still puzzle me a little, like saying Cotto outboxed Mosley, what has that got to do with the price of fish? Nothing. Once Mosley felt Miguels power he knew he couldnt beat him.

FFS. Collazo softened up Hatton. Do you ever give him credit or are you too obsessed with Floyd too see what I'm talking about?

Floyd knew this and saw Rick's vulnerabilities and the fact that he ****** at 147.

if that wa sthe case he should not have called out the 147 linear undisputed champion why would the 147 undisputed champion go down to 140 and fight for a title. Hatton called him out once floyd was no danger to his 140lb title. he wanted no parts of callin out floyd at 140. FACT

[lskjersey]

Collazo softened Hatton up when Hatton fought him a WHOLE YEAR AND A HALF before he fought Floyd?

He knew and saw his vulnerabilities? Quit trolling. When they were BOTH AT 140, Hatton and his team stated they were NOT ready to fight Mayweather. Those who follow the sport KNOW that to be true. Also, they had ZERO problem fighting Floyd at 147, since Floyd was not "big" at that weight. Add on to the fact that it would make no sense for Floyd to go BACK down to 140 after he had just become fought and beat Oscar for the title at 154.

yup Hattons dad said the where waiting for both kids to meet undefeated at 147

Cotto swept most of 140 at the time.Not to mention he could no longer make the weight.What "fight" did he reject? 147 had more opportunities.


I agree,cotto and mayweather were bound to fight at one point.I doubt cotto "turned it down" like you claim.Rememeber money "retired" around that time + the division was getting hot with entrys like p willy,margarito campaining,cintron waivering around,mosley lingering,clottey sharking around etc etc.



140 pretty much had ricky in equivalence to a NAME and $$$.An unknown timothy bradley,urango+alexander who were buliding a name.

doesnt hatton walk around at 220?? seriously..haha

i would have liked to see floyd fight a non ruined pre margacheato Cotto, however i do think floyd still wins that fight..
although im not a floyd fan(outside the ring moreso) i do not blame him
for not giving arum that payday....
when a fighter is unhappy with a long term promoter, why when the contract finally ends would they want to give back to him in any way....?

having said that, for floyd to say he is the best of his era, then he needs to do what hearns, hagler, duran and leonard did...and fight the best...

[AP♠]

I like mosley and like any other he has a chance.



He can make a simple objective,win 7 rounds convincingly with out getting KO'd.Difficult yes,but it could be done.

[lskjersey]

1. Mosley never said margarito cheated, he puts the blame on his coach.

2. Mayweather wouldn't even come close to knocking mayorga out.

3. Mayweather didn't even want to fight cotto when he had the chance



PS: Mayweather is a great fighter, but why is he talking his oponents down, and then blame people for not getting any credits after he beat a fighter ?

one your wrong Cotto dodged floyd know fact and that dogs is entirely too overweight if you love your dog your trim him down and read a book on breed standard and comformation!

To think,when was the last time floyd has fought a top rank fighter
