Why did Floyd want Cotto's WBA belt at 154,but not Shane's WBA belt at 147?

Lord knows.
My guess is that Mayweather wanted to act like he's so great that he doesn't need to fight for a belt.
After all, he was going through his "Belts collect dust" stage.
But that's just a guess. He should have just fought for it.

Floyd didn't care for Ortiz's belt either, but Ortiz wanted it that way. Sometimes these little details were mentioned during fight night of the PPV (like with the case of Ortiz).

From my understanding Floyd was not interested in Shane's belt because he was trying to avoid the sanctioning fees for being a title holder. How that changed in the Ortiz and Cotto fight? I don't know.

Floyd needed the money more at that point in time~ against Cotto his financial situation was a bit improved so he didn't mind springing for the belt.
