    How is it Cotto/Floyd/Hatton/Tszyu all at 1490 same time but....

    How is it Cotto/Floyd/Hatton/Tszyu were all at 140 at same time period and the only 2 that fought during that time was Hatton/Tszyu . Im not saying this to hate on any of them but I am just curious as to how 4 great fighters like that were all in one division and never fought eachother till years later when Mayweather fought Miguel when Cotto was damaged goods at 154 and Floyd fought Hatton at 147 when Hatton should've stayed at 140.

    Floyd had his first 140 fight in spring 2004. Tszyu was injured and made his comeback in late 2004 then Tszyu fought Hatton, got beat and retired.

          Floyd Called out Cotto and Tszyu after the Gatti fight Tszyu left and Cotto's tam said he wasn't ready.

                After floyd whooped gatti. Cotto sat in the crowd shook as hell. And hatton was sat at the commentating table looking mind****ed as to what he was watching. Floyd had to put the whooping on gatti so he could duck them guys for a while as he was unsure about their abilities. Once he seen their flaws he pounced on them.

                  Tszyu-Mayweather was next if he got passed Hatton, which he didn't. Floyd called out Hatton and Hatton's team said they weren't ready. Arum said he didn't want to put Cotto in with someone like Floyd at that time as well.

                    They weren't actually...Floyd's move to 140 came on the heels of Kosta recovering and fighting Hatton, then retiring..and you have to remember that Kosta was tied in contract with Showtime, while Floyd with HBO..had Tszyu won against Hatton, we would've seen that fight, but he decided to retire!..Floyd called them out, Team Cotto said he wasn't ready, and you heard nothing from Hatton..Kosta was likely willing, but couldn't due to contract/injuries
