Do you think Mayweather ducked Cotto out of fear?

    Duck him? I don't recall him ever being offered a contract. I know he called Cotto out when he and Cotto were both champions at 140 but Arum wouldn't make the fight.

      and Gatti was the lineal champ at jr welter when Floyd beat him right?

        Lol @ t/s not even realizing that Floyd called out Cotto when they were both at 140 and Cotto wanted no part of him. FOH.

          Honestly? A little bit. Floyd never seemed keen to face Margarito or Cotto. He fought Hatton instead. Cotto or Margarito would've been a much bigger payday.

            a 34yo DLH at 154 wasn't a threat? you're an idiot. keep in mind, Floyd is turning 35 in February, and he's very much the biggest threat at 147-154, FACT

                Did Mayweather chose Gatti over Tszyu, though?

                  How? Tzyu opted to cash out in England instead. Smart move by Tzyu, really.

                  Get paid 2 or 3 million pounds to fight Hatton in his backyard in front of 20,000+, or fight Floyd for a mill, in front of 7,000 in vegas?

                  Hmmmmmmmmm.

                    Floyd vs Cotto back in 07 was the fight to be made when Cotto was undefeated and destroying everybody. If somebody was going to beat Cotto it could be Floyd and I had high hope for this fight. Than I saw Floyd famous interview where he said he couldn't fight Cotto because Cotto lived in Puerto Rico and I'm like this dude is scared of Cotto.

                    Floyd was so scared of Cotto and Margarito that when the only fight left to fight at welter was Cotto, Margarito, and his way out was to retired. I can't believed that he has the nerve to say everybody is beating everybody but no one has beaten him.

                      IDK can't really say but he said gatti was a paper champ during the whole promotion so why didn't he fight kosta instead? Not saying he would have lost but it would have been a more meaningful fight
