Cotto vs Mayweather 2008

Cotto was from Pureto Rico.

By that time Floyd decided he had to retire. That was the reason people like me started to hate him and call him a ducker.

Why would Floyd want to fight him!?!?!

COTTO LIVES IN PUERTO RICO FOR GOD'S SAKE!!

Why did this fight not happen? Cotto just came off the Mosley victory and prior to that was destroying everybody...Floyd just became a huge star with his victories over De La Hoya and Hatton...This would have been a huge fight in May/June of 2008...What happened?

Ellerbe said nobody knew who Cotto was.

cause cotto was in pacquiaos position now!!

Reason Floyd and his fans gave

1. Cotto is from Puerto Rico and Puerto Rica is an island of only 3 people
2. Cotto is not a PPV draw
3. Cotto was not "ready"

Same reason he/they gave when Floyd came back and chose JMM over Cotto.

Then Pacquiao fought Cotto, did over a million and it turns out, according to Floyd and his fans, that it was Cotto who was the draw, Cotto has a whole culture, not just country, behind him etc etc etc.

Cotto is the 3rd biggest draw in boxing. Floyd just showed the haters he's willing to fight someone who is not a draw like Mosley.

Cotto wanted nothing to do with Money May at 140. Why would Floyd do business with a guy who owes him millions and hates him?

Stop making **** up. Cotto never gave Floyd an offer when he came back. Floyd only had two offers on the table and they both came from GBP. Mosley or JMM and GBP offered Floyd more money to fight JMM.

Really? Do you really need me to pull the video where Floyd is on FNF saying Cotto is not a PPV draw? Do you really need me to pull the articles saying Cotto is a nobody? ALL from 2008? No one is making **** up.

Why do you think everyone is responding with the "Cotto lives in Puerto Rico" response? Where do you think we got that from, genius?
