        Possibly. Depends on Floyd's current boxing/physical status.

          Not true. Unlike Gatti(RIP), Cotto has good enough technical skills to make it competitive, and add to the fact that he throws combos. We can't predict the outcome of fantasy fights, but i'd pick Floyd to win it all the way. He's just a much quicker puncher, accurate, and more technically skilled than Cotto.

            Nah i doubt it, But that fight should have happen right after Cotto beat Mosley, It would have been great to see Mayweather against a prime, fresh and undefeated Cotto.

              I have no doubt in my mind that Arum wanted the fight for Cotto, He wanted a big fight that would elevate him and thats why he wouldnt have mind putting Cotto in with Mayweather and Oscar.

                Cotto did nothing to make a fight w/Floyd.

                He was never anything but a Top Rank pinata.

He face was crazy swollen.
                  Stop lying to yourself.

                  Max and Larry both tried to get Cotto to say Floyd's name after a fight and they failed.

                  Arum knows he doesn't have a fighter that could beat Floyd.

                    You gotta take down that pic of The Welsh Rabbit before you call ANYBODY a ducker.

                    That coward fought the LOSER of an elimination bout

                      I feel like he could because he's never ever looked bad against a pure boxer. He always just folds against aggressive power punchers.

                      But when he's coming forward he always looks good. I'm not saying it's a definite but I could definitely see it happening.
