Time to over hype Delourme.

I assume the Mexicans' will be rooting for mayweather. So they will have a good cinco de mayo.

This Mexican will be rooting for Cotto!!!

Nope, actually we want a draw and expect a boring fight. We don´t like either of them. Mayweather hugs and runs too much and sucker punched Ortiz after being bullied. Cotto also hugged and ran like a girl the minute he felt Margarito´s power so he is a coward. Ricans are Latinos but they hate Mexican boxers and are loud mouths that´s why we don´t like them. Nothing against Puerto Ricans in general or the island, though.

Not true what you said, Im puerto Rican and love Mexican boxers Fernando Vargas, De La hoya, Victor Ortiz, Marquez etc... the list goes on. And don't say "nothing against Pr's" when you just basically said you don't like them.

Puerto Rican fans will be disappointed that one fighter didn't come to fight and we all know that ain't Cotto

He said this days ago. BS is getting late on **** and he said more then that. Came off kinda weird to me if you read all he said because it really doesnt sound like the way Floyd talks. Its almost like someone released a statement claiming its from Floyd but really his assistant wrote it.........lol

Here is the whole part:


Q: What is Cotto’s most dangerous attribute as a fighter, and does he have a fighting chance against you on May 5?

Floyd Mayweather: As I’ve said before, in order to be the best you have to beat the best, and that is what Miguel Cotto has to do on May 5. He has to beat me.

Cotto is always dangerous in the ring. He is relentless and has already proved his heart and will to win. He is definitely one of the top champions in boxing today.

Miguel Cotto without a doubt is a great matchup for me. Any boxing fan knows that there is a long line of champions who hail from Puerto Rico, and Cotto definitely ranks up there with the greats. That’s why I know the Puerto Rican fans will be watching on May 5, but they are going to be disappointed.

I never write off any opponent until I meet them in the ring. I am aware that I will be moving up in weight for the first time since 2007, which not only poses as a challenge for me, but it does give Cotto a slight advantage because he will remain at his comfort weight of 154. While many may see this as Cotto’s chance and opportunity to end my undefeated record, I think that it’s also important to remember that I chose to move up in weight and give Cotto that advantage because I am confident that I can beat him at any weight.

I know Cotto will be a very hard fight. He is at a place in his career where he is confident and experienced, and I know that because he is fighting me, this is the biggest fight he has ever had. Those factors always make a fighter dangerous and might be the most important part of what he is bringing to the ring that night.

Cotto is an aggressive power-punching fighter in the ring, but I know that I have the skills to beat him. I am faster, and his strength could be the thing to get in his way when he starts swinging and I start ducking.
One thing that the success of my career has thrived on is the fact that I’m willing to challenge myself, understand what my opponent brings to the ring and take full advantage of it. I am too smart, experienced and determined to let anyone beat me.

I’m well aware of Cotto’s potential and the advantages that he possesses in the ring on any given night, but come May 5, those advantages aren’t going to do him any good. Fight fans get ready because I’m about to dethrone the current king of the 154-pound weight class

actually most Latinos root for other Latino fighters just of course Mexicans root for Mexicans when they fight ricans like Ricans root for Ricans when they fight Mexicans. I follow that path mysellf. Go to a fight at MSG with Cotto or Juanma fighting and thr crowd roots for mexicans on the undercards. Come here to LA and us Mexicans root for the rican or other latino when they fight non mexicans.
