If Cotto wins does Floyd go after him at 160 for another title?

    Floyd beats Cotto at any weight so Floyd vs. Cotto at Middleweight does very little for me and this is why Ill be rooting for Martinez because Floyd vs. Sergio in September at 155-160 would be off the hook. Especially if Sergio beats Cotto convincingly which I think he will. 116-112 Martinez assuming Sergio doesn't stop him. Khan vs. Mayweather isn't happening until 2015 according to statements from both Mayweather and Khan so that only leaves Martinez/Cotto winner, or Pac which I doubt happens anytime soon.

        Won't be holding my breath but I don't think Floyd is going to make much more than his guarantee for the Maidana fight which could motivate him to go big in September just like what happened last year after the Guerrero fight. Something seems to be brewing in September it seems. Don't know what, but only Sergio or Pac/Bradley qualifies for "big" at this point.

          Are you somehow someway trying to say Floyd is bigger then Cotto??? lmfao,are you serious?? Cotto ALWAYS has weighed more then Floyd and started at a higher weight....

            True those are the only true big blockbuster fights, and floyd is running out of true ppv caliber opponents,,, I think after maidana, its basically danny garcia, and also khan if he can get a solid win.. But after that thurman and porter are still about a year away from establishing their names, but wont be till 2015 till those guys are big enough names..
            Always the possibiblty of a canelo rematch, since it did over 2 mil buys..

                    You know what he means.

                    Cotto was willing to take the risk against the guy that Floyd avoided at 154 let alone 160. To make it clear, Cotto is taking on a true middleweight to get the title while Floyd would not if he takes on Cotto again.

                      i dont think hes implying thurman or porter would ever be blockbuster fights, instead in a year it would be a maidana/danny level fight where they could still sell enough PPV. but no quite a mega event
