    What are you talking about? I know TONS of Floyd fans who want him to fight Pac and Martinez. Everybody knows that Pac wants no part of random blood testing. Pac is too much of a prima dona to not have everything his way so I say **** him if he doesn't want to take the test. I've said numerous times that I would love to see Floyd fight Martinez and I think Martinez would beat him.

      I know an 07 Mosley is a better then Berto that's beside the point

        I'm not sure Ortiz is better than Cotto in reality. And, at 154 I would comfortably pick Cotto to beat Ortiz.

        I think Ortiz is getting somewhat overrated.

        But, anyways to answer the question. No I would not be interested in a Floyd-Cotto fight. The ship has sailed. No need for that fight anymore.

I think if you switch opponents and give Cotto Berto and Ortiz Clottey you would have a different opinion with Cotto looking great and Ortiz looking lost and possibly losing. Just imagine if Vic had that cut.
              You might right but I haven't seen anything since the Margarito fight that suggests that Cotto can still compete at an elite level.

                I wouldn't mind seeing it, especially if Cotto beats Margarito and either Cintron/Angulo/Alvarez (not sure which of those guys he faces after Tony)

                IMO the best fights for Floyd are Pacquiao, Martinez, Khan and Cotto. I think he has 3-4 fights left in him and after the Pacquiao fight, Cotto will be the one guy who would bring the most money (maybe Khan but I'm not sure about Amir's american drawing power).

                  That's debatable. meh... that version of Oscar might, maybe beats this version of Cotto. And, if he wins they would be no "whoopin" this ain't no freakin Mayorga. this version of Cotto would be competitive against that version of Oscar.

                  A prime Cotto beats that version of Oscar.

                  A prime Oscar whoops any version of Cotto.

                  That version of Oscar was old and done.

                    I'm tired of all the dumb asses sayin cotto is done. Cotto lost to a f
                    ag ass Mexican cheater and lost to PAC Cus gay ass PAC made him come in weight drained. You a holes act like cotto lost to suspect opponents when in fact he faced all the top names in his division except Floyd Cus Floyd ducked him at 147. All you dum ass fans are ruining boxing sAying boxers are garbage after 1 or 2 losses. All the greats had multiple losses. Phuck all the haters cotto would whip all the 147 and 154 names right now except Floyd and manny. And cotto never stuggled against a boxer. He only lost to two brawlers

                      He crushes Cotto right now. It would be boring in a since because Cotto wont take chances and Floyd doesnt have to. 12rds, Cotto a busted lip and on to the next. Same as it would have been when Cotto was at 140.
