If cotto/mayweather happens, it has to happen after pac/mayweather. I say this because look at the marquez fight vs pac.
I really dont think may will have that EASY of a time vs cotto like all you guys think. I want cotto to fight him, so cotto can say he fought every one from his era.

Why not? It would be exciting while lasts. Better late than never. Some of you people make Cotto out as a has been...the guy is really versatile, he also does exceptionally well against boxers.

Floyd should be fighting boxers with range and speed if his fights are to be competitive.
Think about it, there’s a reason only Hatton has given him any kind of fight in the last 4 years......and it’s not because Hatton is the best recent opponent Floyd has faced!
Cotto should fight Alverez, that’s the best fight out there for him, and for us, as fans.

Floyd needs to fight someone like himself to be in a competitive fight, Cotto simply isn’t that man.
The last thing i want is to see is someone like Cotto lose a 12rd decision to Mayweather, Cotto doesn’t deserve that on his record, just like Marquez didn’t.
Get Mayweather in with Khan, that’s the most exciting fight out there right now. Failing that, another tall rangy fighter with speed and timing. Problem is, there’s not too many of them at 147/154

Originally posted by Box Up! View PostI love Cotto, but you know Floyd would insist on it being at 147. Cotto is far, far too slow for Floyd, he’s made for Floyd’s style. It’s a bad, bad match up. Having said that, were i Floyd Mayweather I’d push for this fight all day long.
Cotto should be aiming for Alverez, that’s the golden goose stylistically, failing that perhaps move to middleweight, it’s a soft division (Martinez aside)
Cotto vs Mayweather stinks of cash, nothing more. I hate that fight.
Anyway, if Cotto sticks with Bob Arum then a Mayweather fight won’t happen, so I’m fretting over very little really.

I can see Floyd's game plan now......block punches the whole round, land nothing of significance....let the judges give him the round.
