Comments Thread For: floyd Mayweather Explains His Selection of Miguel Cotto

[boogybro]

When you have to explain why you picked an opponent, and call him "solid", and this and that..You know you picked a bum.


When Floyd fights actual tough opponents, he trash talks.

You think Cotto is a bum?

lol

If Cotto says he CAN'T make 147, why do these ******s keep coming up with reasons why they think he can make 147?

I'd like to see you have the will and strength to take JUST a knee when you're getting blasted to the body and face with concrete hands.

excellent post!! how dare anyone mention cotto taking a knee in that fight after it is 100% obvious that margacheato was using loaded wraps! when i think of cotto i think of a good solid champion with entertaining fights. lets not forget that when he was in his prime and undefeated and slated as mayweather's next opponenet floyd "retired". i wouldve rather seen this fight back then.

This is an article from a trainer from Vegas. http://fighthype.com/pages/content6455.html

" It's funny because people are like, "Mayweather is a coward because he didn't come at the weight that he signed to fight Marquez at". He wasn't going to deplete himself, but nobody said anything about Manny telling Oscar and Cotto that they can't re hydrate to more than 147 pounds."

Haha as your boy would say, THANKS! THAT'S ALL!

[ChampBox@PR]

NO! THERE WAS NO rehydration clause! That is a rumor that the haters and excuse makers came up with. .

Cotto rehydrated to 155 pounds for Pacquiao. . . Same as he has always rehydrated when fighting at 147!

NOW. . One last time! I bid you adieu! THANKS! THAT IS ALL

Hope my knowledge was passed on Have a good day

Cotto rehydrated for Pac at 151. Stop talking out off your ass. Cotto rehydrates from 158-162 regularly. Hell, in his last fight at 140 he weight at 159.

Cotto has Lita off troubles making 145. Making a weight dont mean that your healthy at that weight.

Cotto is no MW either!

Floyd has to not only promote himself, he's coming off as Cotto's promoter as well. Talking all nice about Cotto, complimenting him, something top fighters do for overmatched underdog opponents.

So far, i'm not interested in this fight. And Floyd, who usually takes the role of the "showman", is not selling this fight like I thought he would. He's talking about Cotto exactly like he thought about Marquez, which was a tune up fight/rust shaker who people accused him of cherrypicking, so he had to try to big up Marquez.

Right? LOL Manny says he will never fight at 150 again because it was rough for him, yet no one questions this. The double standard is hilarious.

You just called Cotto a bum, nothing else to be said really.

You are a hater!

Floyd was doing the same **** with Ortiz. He looked like he was sleepwalking through the press tour, had nothing but good things to say about Ortiz calling him a young lion and all that, and then the 24/7 cameras started rolling and it was the Floyd we always know.
