You can't have it both ways

ok but I think you are kinda overdoing it. He is a small ww but a ww none the less.

Yeah he's a small welter weight who naturally should be fighting at 135.

I'm not saying that was wrong of him but he had plenty of time to still make those 2 fights.

But why? What is gained from fighting either guy? Bob wants manny to fight them because BOB gets more money, not because they are great fighters. C'mon man.

Cotto and Margarito not great fighters? Don't get me wrong they arn't any better than Castillo or Corrales but come on now not great fighters? Those would of been major wins especially when his next fight was against such a deeply flawed fighter in Ricky Hatton who was a junior Welter to boot.

Pistol I was talking about clottey and marg. I will buy that cotto was in the mix but he wasn't fully campaigning at 147 when floyd started there.

But he went up in weight instead. Thats what some forget. Instead of cotto he fought ODH at 154.

Regardless he was still a top tier WW who wasn't some Jimmy Braddock Cinderella story long shot and he wasn't the welter weight who lost to that Jimmy Braddock Cinderella story long shot either.
