For those who believed Mayweather ducked Miguel Cotto!

[ModernTalking]

and you seriously think it's just a coincidence that those fighters are all promoted by Bob Arum. My God you are a puppet.

There's a reason why ESPN called Floyd a coward.

[Everywhere]

There's a reason why ESPN called Floyd a coward.

And thats why FOX called Pacquiao a roided up joke to America.

[brick wall]

Didn't Cotto lost in July of that year also, and fought Alfonso Gomez before that? And the fight before that he fought to what seemed like a draw turned in to a gift decision?

2008: Mayweather vs Cotto was the hottest fight.

Yet in 2008, you beat Alfonso Gomez, and lose to Antonio Margarito. Hot fight, not such a hot year for Cotto. Seems to me like the only person that made that fight hot was Floyd Mayweather coming off of wins against Oscar De La Hoya and undefeated Ricky Hatton.

early 2008 you idiot...after cotto beat shane in nov 2007 and floyd stopped hatton in dec 2007. so yeah a lot of people were asking for that fight in (early) 2008. and then floyd announced his retirement so i think by the time cotto fought gomez, floyd was already in the retirement house.

What do Cotto , Margarito, and Pacquiao have in common?
BOB ARUM...................

These are the three fighters that people like to say that Floyd ducked right?
Well here are some facts for you.

Fact.....Bob Arum called Mayweather the greatest fighter he has seen in the last 45 years. He also said that about Pacquaio after Floyd left his a$$

Fact.....Bob never let Mayweather fight his then cash cow Delahoya while both were with Top Rank. Floyd got the fight after he left Bobs A$$

Fact.....Mayweather realized that he would never get his dream fight against delahoya because Bob and delahoya were not doing business together. Why? Because delahoya left Bobs a$$

Fact.....Bob Arum owes Mayweather money from the Gatti and Judah fights and still hasn't paid Mayweather because Floyd left his a$$

Fact.....Mayweather bought himself out of Bob arums contract for 750 thousand and left his a$$

Fact.....Bob Arum said that Floyd was ducking Cotto, Margarito, and Pacquiao after Floyd left his a$$

My point is...........why would a man who Bob called the best fighter in the last 45 years duck anybody?

Cotto, Pacquiao, Margarito, were all active and fighting when Bob made that comment.
Bob didn't call Mayweather a ducker until Mayweather left his a$$

And the Cotto, Margarito, Pacquaio fights will never happen until they do what Delahoya and Mayweather did.

And thats..................... To leave Bob Arum's a$$

[spyvsspy]

Floyd blatantly ducked Cottoand countless others. TS is the textbook definition of a *****. Garbage thread.

[Phenom]

Floyd wanted Cotto when he was on the come up and apparently, Arum wouldn't have been an issue.

Cotto came into his own, became a respectable champion and threat and then....

Arum representing Cotto became an issue
Cotto wasn't a PPV figure
Cotto resided in Puerto Rico
Cotto's first name began with the letter "M" and Floyd never fights fighters who's names begin with an "M"
The situation in Sudan worried Floyd too much for him to concentrate on a fight with Cotto

I don't know what other excuses Floyd threw at the boxing world, but there were plenty more.

was a cotto fight ever offered to Floyd?
did Floyd ever turn down the fight?
why wouldn't Floyd fight Miguel Cotto? why would he be scared of Cotto?


people acting like Cotto was tearing up the 147 division back in 07 and 08 when in reality his biggest win was a close decision over a past prime Mosley. at best he was the #2 welter weight no offense but no one is ever going to duck Miguel Cotto

[AP♠]

Floyd had 2 problems back then.Cotto and margarito.

Floyd had 2 choices back then.fight or vacation.

Floyd chose vacation.thumbs down.

Floyd still had 2 choices after.vacation or let the dust clear.

Floyd chose both.


Because of top rank? .... why does floyd only fight golden boy promotion fighters

[daggum]

mayweather wanted 10 million to fight cotto when he just got his previous career high of 5 million against judah.

mayweather made up comical excuses not to fight cotto such as he lives too far away and he's not the CEO of his own company.

mayweather retired when cotto was at his peak and that was the biggest fight in boxing.

stop revising history!

[LaMigra]

I think the dudes defending Floyd are guys who also duck somebody in their neighborhood daily. Hence, they are trying to make sense of Floyd's cowardice.
