      I may go to Vegas for this one.
      No way. At 150, it falls back down to a C+ fight. Floyd, if he fights Cotto, should do it at 154. It's a B+ fight then.

      It will be mad funny if Mayweather-Cotto is announced, because than Pac is left with Peterson, Marquez, or Bradley. And I don't think Manny wants to fight Bradley right now, because Tim could really possibly beat him. Besides Floyd, Cotto at 154 or Bradley are the best options for Pac. He doesn't want to fight Cotto above 147, seems completely uninterested in fighting Bradley.

      If there is no Mayweather-Pacquiao, they better make it for November or December, and I want to see Mayweather-Cotto at 154/Pacquiao-Bradley at 144-147.

        Hey, this is a Floyd fan that NEVER talked about "left overs".

        Was Ali, Joe Frazier's left overs, when Norton beat Ali???
        Was Hearns left overs after Ray beat him???
        Was Oscar left overs after Felix beat him???


        Was Hatton left overs after Floyd beat him????

        NO. Left over talk is bulls**t.

        In regards to Floyd fighting Cotto at 154, it's a B+ fight, same goes for Manny.

        For example, Floyd gets more credit for beating Hatton, because he beat the better version and he did it first. But, Manny still gets his due. Ricky was coming off 2 solid wins after losing to Floyd, was past his prime-still good, and Manny did it at 140. Manny gets his due for Hatton, Floyd just gets more.

        It's the same, only vice-versa, if Floyd fights Cotto. Cotto is past his prime-still good, pretty much the same guy he was when he fought Manny in NOV 09', only at SWW. Floyd will get his due, Manny just gets more because he did it first.

                Funny thing is, if cotto fights PAC it would be acceptable. If mayweather fights him, cotto is garbage. This displays how mayweather is on a different level. I don't even have to bring in De La Hoya, Hatton, Mosley or JMM.

                    Cotto is a good win for Floyd, IMO a better win than Mosley being Cotto isn't coming off a 16 month lay off and is much more experienced than Victor Ortiz. Sure, we can find reasons why the fight shouldn't happen or is long over due, but I think people from jump are just finding reasons to discredit the fight. But as soon as the fight comes to fruition, the chants of "Cotto is done" from Mayweather fans turns into "Cotto is coming off a win and has only 1 legit loss". The same goes for Pac fans if Cotto fights him. The truth of it all is both guys are out of fighters to pick from with Cotto really being the one big name not named Pacquiao that Floyd has never faced. If they can make a PPV out of Mayweather vs Ortiz, I have no doubt they can actually do really well with Mayweather vs Cotto.

                      Definitely not a better win than Mosley.
