2008 Cotto vs. Mayweather

[djtmal]

It has no bearing on his ranking what so ever. He is higher than top 30 on many polls. Top 15-25.

You seem to think being ranked one of the top 15-25 boxers of all time is a bad thing. That is just ******.

Then you’re making some ridiculous claim that fighting and beating 2 guys earlier than he did beat them and beating a dude that will not make the hof would somehow elevate him into the top 10. That is asinine.

No, beating all those guys in their prime and all the guys he ducked absolutely would. You seem to think that barely outpointing a faded Cotto, Shane and Manny is something special, when we had already seen them get ravaged by other fighters.
Floyd had the potential to be at best top 10-15. Definitely right next to Srr and Srl at ww but he took his foot off the gas with too many cherrypicks. He tried to cherrypick his way to top tier goat status but it's not happening.

Look at Cotto. Floyd bypassed fighting a prime undefeated Miguel Cotto calling him out to fight because he was still on vacation, but oops somehow vacation was over and he was available for a lightweight Juan Marquez. That's why nobody in their right mind would put Floyd no higher than eh 25-30. Too much cherrypicking.

Floyd definitely is #1 in the cherrypickers hall of fame though.

Cotto did not give Floyd a very tough fight.

There's not a single person who thought the fight was in doubt, even Puerto Ricans.

Floyd washed him and would've washed him in any era.

Nope...even Floyd said Cotto was one of his toughest fights.

It was competitive not sure what fight you watched but Floyd did not "wash" anybody in that fight...

You dont get jabbed in the mouth 3 times in a row when you "wash" somebody.


Something tells me you think ***** was a good president too...

You don't have to not like Floyd to just keep it a buck and say when a prime, undefeated Cotto called him out, Floyd was either retired or on vacation for 2 years, and obviously didn't hear the phone, and by the time Floyd did hear it, Cotto was already mangled by Manny and Margarito.

Floyd did a good enough job of lessoning the validity of his own career by the choices he made. Not his haters.

FACT.

Floyd also avoided Cotto by saying "Cotto is too green..."

Maybe he was still coping with the loss to Castillo.

Cotto make floyd bloodied and that was a past prime bloated cotto imagine if that was a 2008 version of cotto? Floyd would not only be bloodied but probably ko.

LMAO, Floyd would've been 31 in 2008 and just off beating De La Hoya too.

Nope...even Floyd said Cotto was one of his toughest fights.

Floyd said Emmanuel Agustus was his toughest fight.

You think a prime version of him beats him?

[Kagami Taiga]

Floyd still making ass cheeks sore around here, huh?

[Truth Bringer]

Cotto would have beat his ass and May knows it.
