Comments Thread For: Roach: Mayweather is Shot, Will Avoid Cotto Rematch!

[Kagami Taiga]

Roach, and fans in general, needs to stop mentioning Money Mayweather. He's irrelevant. We need new faces in boxing. Or at least make the current crop of fighters fight each other. Thurman vs Bradley would be interesting. Thurman is being ducked by a bunch of ducks in Haymon's stable, anyway.

Lol so irrelevant that he sells more ppvs than anyone else out there? Please trey to at least make sense in your hate.

You think that Bradley will move up to fight for the Middleweight Championship?

Honestly, arum was talking about a bradley-cotto fight in the near future, so it wouldnt shock me if for timing reasons, cotto doesnt land floyd, or canelo, so instead of ggg, he fights bradley..
Cotto would murder bradley, and bradley is gutsy enough to accept the challenge, so i think its a longshot, but not out of the realm of possibilty that a bradley-cotto fight gets made late in the year

The cotto that fought delvin and serg would beat the floyd that fought maidana IMO

I don't think this is a bat**** crazy statement.

I'm not sure that It would be a wise career move for Bradley to fight Cotto after just being beaten by Pacquiao. Bradley needs a win In his next fight and as you stated that will not happen against Cotto.

And since when has Floyd ever come into the ring @ 155 or 160 lbs? He can barely get beyond 150 even when against big boned Canelo.

Considering he doesn't weigh himself on fight night or at least officially, we can only speculate how much he weighs.

I am saying I personally don't think it would be a problem for him to bulk up to 155 lbs or more. I could be wrong...

Bradley could potentially duck Thurman too. Do you not remember Bradley ducking Guerrero once upon a time?

Lol, I'm sure Floyd would love everyone to think that. Problem is how Kong that sentiment lasts.

At 156-157 probably. Cotto weighed in at 155. So its basically fighting a jr middleweight for the middleweight title. Plus I think Arum is ready to cash Bradley out.

Floyds final three fights (IMO)

1) Danny Garcia
2)Amir Khan
3) Bhop

That is some legacy, right?

While it would make financial sense for Cotto to fight Floyd, I think that there are a few really good paydays at MW for Cotto without Floyd.

I may be wrong but I am feeling a very slight shift in Floyds popularity, his star is fading a bit.

A huge PPV fight with Pac in early 2015 would put him on top of the pile, that is what a true champion would do. Go out with a ****, not a snooze fest with a 50 year old Bhop.

I am not a Floyd hater btw, but he is starting to wear thin.

Floyd's done a fight night weight pretty regularly.
