Mayweather Cotto Face Off Preview (HBO Video)

[RL_GMA]

What people don't know........Mayweather and Cotto met in P.Rico to discuss this fight last year when Cotto was still with Bob Arum.

Ever since that meeting happened.........they have had nothing but respect for eachother.

There is no need to trash talk Cotto because Cotto is showing Floyd respect unlike Ortiz, Hatton,Mosley,Delahoya.

That's not entirely true.

Both guys have known each other for quite a while during the days of both being under Top Rank. Both Floyd and Cotto would be seen at Top Rank gym training for upcoming fights. Floyd even states Cotto would scope him early in his career and sees how he implemented some things Floyd does in the ring. Their meeting in PR got blown out of proportion and wasn't for a potential fight.
