Oh Merchant shut the **** up.

This event is Floyd vs. Cotto for the 154 Pound crown. Period.

This old **** is annoying. "Cottos best days are behind him". Yeah and lemme guess Floyd is turning the clock back?

****in clown

This is the problem I have with Merchant, he continually calls Floyd a cherry picker. Yet has never used the same word to describe Pacquiao, when you bear in mind his past 3 fights.

Give each fighter a fair shake.

Damn I pray to the boxing gods Shane has one more brilliant performance tonight.

One more please Shane....

You want some cream for that butthurt?

Merchant is pretty accurate with his comments.

Why? Shane will only end up in a rematch with Pac or Mayweather. No one wants that.

Doesnt matter if its not Canelo it will be Khan or Bradley.

i think the old man might be on to something. i mean, if floyd said its one more fight, I'm guessing its with canelo as almost a passing of the PPV torch ala hoya with floyd.

Merchant said:

Cotto is past his best - probably correct
Card is built for a future Canelo v FMJ fight - correct
Mayweather and Pacquiao make more money against other opponents - probably correct

Can't really argue with it.

Of course Cotto is not at his best. He took 2 huge beatings.

Heck half this forum called him Kneeguel pre Mayweather talks.

GBP have talked of Khan and Canelo for ages, so I know it will happen because they make money from the % and promotion.
