    Bro, how is that proof that Cotto ducked him when Williams lost few weeks later?

    Who did Cotto fight in ducking P-Will? When did he duck P-Will. Where does that show evidence that Cotto ducked him?

      Cotto didnt want the fight. Even Cotto die hards admit that. Hes been calling Cotto for 3 years now.

      Its funny how we all need to go find exact proof and quotes regarding anyone else. But no one does that with Floyd they just say he ducked everybody. Interesting.

      Cotto wanted nothing to do with him. FACT.

        But c'mon, look at all the **** Goosen was talking. This may have been 2 years ago, but let's not forget that it was Williams' team also asking for money that hadn't yet earned. They were asking for 50/50 even in 2008 for a fight with Pavlik which was immediately thrown down. There's a lot that article doesn't talk about because its coming from one perspective only, Williams' and his team.

        I'm sure Top Rank has their own version, but depending on who you side with is what you'll believe I guess.

Yes some times that happens for fights but dont say it was for that one because I was there live. They did it for Ward vs Kessler, there were tables all around the arena where we turned in our tickets for closer ones at no charge.
          The P-Will-Winky fight was empty. It did not do good in the live gate though at all. I don't know if they brought people down but the attendance ******.

            Fair enough. That was a Goosen orientated article. That fight shouldve happened though. They were both on top of their game at the same time.

                When did he duck him though? Who did he fight in order to duck him?

                I can tell you that Floyd avoided Spaddy and Johnston and fought Ndou and Sosa

                I can tell you he avoided Vivian Harris and fought Bruseles instead

                or avoided Margarito and fought Judah

                avoided every top 10 WW and fought JMM.

                I just want to know he ducked Williams and fought who instead? Can you answer that question or no?

                    Jro when you start doing the same thing for Pac and everyone else other then just Floyd then you have a case. Thats just pure Floyd hate.

                    You mean to tell that Cotto can fight Jennings, Gomez, Quinatana Urkal and Clottey.

                    And there was no room to fit Paul in? Who was fighting guys like Pakau, Phillips, Koelle and an old Winky?

                    Man Im not buying that., He couldve fought Williams he chose not to. Period.

                      That was at 140. We talking about 147....

                      At 147 when Cotto name was brought up. What did Floyd say? I am going to retire from boxing, I won't let boxing retire me? Or something to that effect?

                      What was that about was that a duck?

                      Eh, he wanted to retire so be it I don't care. All I know is that 147 Cotto did not duck Floyd. If Floyd really wanted the fight at 147 it could of happened.
