Even if Cotto and Hatton lose they'd still make for a great fight.. Hope that is a genuine possibility.

Q: Floyd, I have mad respect for your skills but stop saying you'll only fight the best when you clearly do not. You take the easiest fights style-wise for the most money. Hatton is tailor made for you, and you are already trying to discrdit the Mosley/Cotto winner so you won't have to fight them. Good business but not the stuff of a fight legend!!

FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR -> Main Chat: Let me teach you about the game young man, Mosley and Cotto are good fighters, but what has Cotto done other than beat fighters I already beat? What's impressive about that? And Shane Mosley is a very good fighter, but Shane suddenly wants to fight me but the whole world knows that he had a number of opportunities to fight me. I don't have to discredit nobody my record speaks for itself. I wouldn't be in this position without beating the top guys. Last I looked Mosley had four losses. And all I do is soften them up for Cotto. If Mosley beats Cotto, Cotto fights Hatton next. Just because you get rocked in a fight and get up, all that shows is that you like taking punishment. Cotto, to me ain't nothing but a punching bag. Cotto don't even believe he should fight me himself. He ain't never mentione my name once, that's just his promoter doing all the talking for him.

Floyds is an idiot if he thinks I don't know about the fact that he himself went around beating fighters with losses and fighters who had already been beaten by Kostya Tszyu and Oscar De La Hoya. How many undefeated fighters has Floyd beat? He has not faced an undefeated fighter since Corrales. All of Floyd's best work has been done in the lighter weight divisions mainly the 130. Sure Cotto faught some of Floyd's left overs but Cotto destroyed those whom took floyd to the distance. I even see Paulie Malignaggi going 12 with Floyd and Paulie coming out of the fight unscaved. (Remember Cottos hand was broken against Paulie and Pualies face still looked like he was ran over by a drunk driver) lol
People are putting all of their marbles on Hatton and I personaly feel that Hatton will not be the one to beat Floyd. I will put my money on Cotto if and when the time comes. Cotto might not ever say he wants to fight PBF, but I know for a fact that he has been training for that day. Cotto will be better prepared for Floyd when the time is right and the time is near. Hoping Cotto beats Mosley so that we can see what unfolds from there.

Cotto might of stopped all of Mayweathers left overs, but he was rocked in every single fight. I like Cotto, but he's not in Mayweather's league.

Cotto was rocked by Corley/ Floyd was rocked by Corley early 3rd and througout the 4th round.
Cotto finishes Corley off/ Floyd gets a UD
Cotto was rocked by Zab/ Floyd was knocked down by Zab regardless if he was hurt or not.
Cotto finishes off Zab/Floyd UD's Zab.
Cotto destroys Sosa in 4 when was he hurt in that fight?/ Floyd UD Sosa

I'm not saying Cotto can beat Floyd easily or anything, but he'll put up a hell of a fight which in my book puts him in Floyd's league. If Floyd were to fight Cotto like he did Corley I don't think he'd last too long. If he fought like he did against DLH or Baldomir then he could most likely pull it out on points. Gatti is not in Floyd's league. Cotto is hands down, but that's just my opinion. We'll know more after the Mosley fight.

Well put Joerod. CC

It will be funny if Cotto does fight Hatton at 147.

Hatton goes 12 rounds with Floyd. Floyd runs all night and gets the decision Floyd robs the public again. Floyd said he was going to knock out Hatton. How many believe this? Is this the same guy that said he was going to masacre Oscar De La Hoya? I must have missed the funeral LMAO

Cotto and Hatton would have a war and I would be rooting for Cotto but I like Ricky too. Much better fight, people get their moneys worth.

Floyd Is The Devil!

Mayweather takes one clean shot against Corley, takes a step backwards. Than proceeds to avoid all of Corley's punches. How is that being rocked? Being rocked is when Corley hit Cotto. Cotto was so fucking hurt, he couldn't even stumble right. He was stumbling sideways. Mayweather dominated Corley. Cotto won by bogus stoppage. Against Judah, Mayweather was never hurt. Cotto was hurt at least 3 times against Judah.

I seem to remember Floyd taking one big shot and leaning against ropes using good defensive skills to avoid Corley's shots and then proceed to kick Corely's ass all over the ring and winning every round however Cotto vs Corley Cotto was stumbling around the ring like a drunk man and was almost koed and won by questionable stoppage.

And the other wins mean nothing because Floyd is a boxer and Cotto is a puncher it doesn't matter if Floyd takes longer than Cotto to finish opponents Mayweather's job is to break his opponents down and win one sided decisions or late stoppage Cotto is brawler with who is very strong who comes straight forward looking for a knockout there both good at what they do and just because Cotto finish's them earlier doesn't make it more impressive than Mayweather dominating his opponents with great boxing skill and defense.

I respect Floyds ability in the ring, but the fact that he keeps dismissing Cotto only leave me to believe that there is some fear.

Seen it before with Bowe and Lewis.
Rematch with Hopkins and RJJ.
Probably many more.

I know there isn't a boxer out there that would come out and say that he is afraid of someone, but this is the so called best pound for pound boxer out there... Just fight the guy.

If he beats Mosley then Mayweather will give him his shot 100 percent i think we need to wait and see if Cotto actually beats Mosley first before we start saying about Mayweather ducking Cotto i actually think Mosley will beat Cotto.

The Oracle already told me Cotto would win this fight. I will have to take her word. Her info is good.

Cotto get's rocked but he comes back and destroys. Eso son huevos y CORAZON the guerrero.

Bogus stoppage? Cotto was making Corley drop to his knees like a punk azz biatch. Cotto got hurt, Cotto got rocked but did he take a knee? It is not Cotto's fault Corley punked out. The Ref seen Corley was just trying to survive and playing games. The ref saved Corley just like the ref saved Judah. Cotto is a warrior through and through.

Unless he wins the $20M lottery again and lines up a rematch with Oscar.

The Oracle is a whore. She'll say anything for 20 bucks.

cc good read

I'm going to say a few things about Floyd that I truly believe you guys haven't realized. He knows who he's looking for and who he isn't. He says so much about how Cotto never mentions his name, well I've never heard Cotto's name come out of Floyds until this interview. He was always talking about big bucks with DLH and bigs bucks over here. Floyd Mayweather knows what Cotto brings to the ring. Mayweather could've fought him when they were at 140 but what did he do.....

he won a dumb title eliminator against
1)CORLEY
2) HENRY BRUSELES to then fight
3) GATTI for the title.

Now, instead of staying in that weight and trying to unify as he proclaims he the best P4P (Which I don't argue to this point), then why did he avoid a COTTO(power) or even a TZSYU (power) who were currently champion in that weight? He then doesn't give a title deffense at 140 but decides to moves up to welterwight to fight
1) MITCHELL.then beats JUDAH for his belt & then wants to unify the welterweight division by beating
2) BALDOMIR instead of MARGARITO (the best ranked welterweight at that time).

He then hears that Cotto is at welterweight so he makes a MEGA fight with OSCAR and then says.....I retire. knowing that there is still unfinished business at welterweights. Many of you guys just follow along to everything he says and don't see the little things that he is doing. He wants MOSLEY to beat COTTO because he has a better chance at beating MOSLEY with a simple jab than to have an all out brawl with COTTO. He is not going to take that chance. If COTTO beats MOSLEY, boxing fans are going to bring COTTO's name up and he doesn't want that. He knows that COTTO is going to bring him another CASTILLO type fight but with power.

There is no such thing as left overs because if that's the case then he fought all of TSZYU'S and OSCAR's left overs. MAYWEATHER is full of shit and to those who say COTTO doesn't even belong in his league, obviously don't know much about boxing. BRUSELES & GATTI aren't in MAYWEATHER'S league but you guys still give him credit for those victories.

I',m not saying that MAYWEATHER isn't good.I honestly think he could be great but I think he fears some fighters and talks smack about them to make himself feel better. If he desn't beat all these unbeaten fighters and cleans out these weight divisions, I'm not going to consider him among my top 10 P4P of all-times. Not deserved.

I agree with everything Eli_jr24 said and would add why did he want to fight Zab after he was beat by Baldomir. Reality is Mayweather was great at under 140lb but above that he is picking his opponents which is not a mark of greatness.

I don't know how to post a video, but here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbArg6JYODQ if you say he wasn't in trouble, you and I have a different view on trouble. I never said Floyd was hurt against Judah I said he was knocked down. Cotto never touched the canvas. If the Corley fight wasn't stopped he would have just taken even more of a beating. He got off easy compared to the rest of Cotto's recent opponents. My point isn't Cotto can beat Mayweather my point is Cotto is in Mayweather's league and will give him a run for his money.

Please see video to refresh your memory.
Sorry but in my eyes a beatdown is more impressive than a decision victory, using defense and pot-shotting and history shows that boxing fans agree. Once again I am not saying because Cotto beat the same opponents faster he is better. I am saying he is in Floyd's league and will give him a good fight. IF he can get by Mosely.

That's interesting coming from someone in the know ( probably means nothing),or is he just being sarcastic cos Cotto fights his leftovers...

Even if Cotto and Hatton lose they'd still make for a great fight.. Hope that is a genuine possibility.

Q: Floyd, I have mad respect for your skills but stop saying you'll only fight the best when you clearly do not. You take the easiest fights style-wise for the most money. Hatton is tailor made for you, and you are already trying to discrdit the Mosley/Cotto winner so you won't have to fight them. Good business but not the stuff of a fight legend!!

FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR -> Main Chat: Let me teach you about the game young man, Mosley and Cotto are good fighters, but what has Cotto done other than beat fighters I already beat? What's impressive about that? And Shane Mosley is a very good fighter, but Shane suddenly wants to fight me but the whole world knows that he had a number of opportunities to fight me. I don't have to discredit nobody my record speaks for itself. I wouldn't be in this position without beating the top guys. Last I looked Mosley had four losses. And all I do is soften them up for Cotto. If Mosley beats Cotto, Cotto fights Hatton next. Just because you get rocked in a fight and get up, all that shows is that you like taking punishment. Cotto, to me ain't nothing but a punching bag. Cotto don't even believe he should fight me himself. He ain't never mentione my name once, that's just his promoter doing all the talking for him.

Floyds is an idiot if he thinks I don't know about the fact that he himself went around beating fighters with losses and fighters who had already been beaten by Kostya Tszyu and Oscar De La Hoya. How many undefeated fighters has Floyd beat? He has not faced an undefeated fighter since Corrales. All of Floyd's best work has been done in the lighter weight divisions mainly the 130. Sure Cotto faught some of Floyd's left overs but Cotto destroyed those whom took floyd to the distance. I even see Paulie Malignaggi going 12 with Floyd and Paulie coming out of the fight unscaved. (Remember Cottos hand was broken against Paulie and Pualies face still looked like he was ran over by a drunk driver) lol
People are putting all of their marbles on Hatton and I personaly feel that Hatton will not be the one to beat Floyd. I will put my money on Cotto if and when the time comes. Cotto might not ever say he wants to fight PBF, but I know for a fact that he has been training for that day. Cotto will be better prepared for Floyd when the time is right and the time is near. Hoping Cotto beats Mosley so that we can see what unfolds from there.

Cotto might of stopped all of Mayweathers left overs, but he was rocked in every single fight. I like Cotto, but he's not in Mayweather's league.

Cotto was rocked by Corley/ Floyd was rocked by Corley early 3rd and througout the 4th round.
Cotto finishes Corley off/ Floyd gets a UD
Cotto was rocked by Zab/ Floyd was knocked down by Zab regardless if he was hurt or not.
Cotto finishes off Zab/Floyd UD's Zab.
Cotto destroys Sosa in 4 when was he hurt in that fight?/ Floyd UD Sosa

I'm not saying Cotto can beat Floyd easily or anything, but he'll put up a hell of a fight which in my book puts him in Floyd's league. If Floyd were to fight Cotto like he did Corley I don't think he'd last too long. If he fought like he did against DLH or Baldomir then he could most likely pull it out on points. Gatti is not in Floyd's league. Cotto is hands down, but that's just my opinion. We'll know more after the Mosley fight.

Mayweather takes one clean shot against Corley, takes a step backwards. Than proceeds to avoid all of Corley's punches. How is that being rocked? Being rocked is when Corley hit Cotto. Cotto was so F****** hurt, he couldn't even stumble right. He was stumbling sideways. Mayweather dominated Corley. Cotto won by bogus stoppage. Against Judah, Mayweather was never hurt. Cotto was hurt at least 3 times against Judah.

I don't know how to post a video, but here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbArg6JYODQ if you say he wasn't in trouble, you and I have a different view on trouble. I never said Floyd was hurt against Judah I said he was knocked down. Cotto never touched the canvas. If the Corley fight wasn't stopped he would have just taken even more of a beating. He got off easy compared to the rest of Cotto's recent opponents. My point isn't Cotto can beat Mayweather my point is Cotto is in Mayweather's league and will give him a run for his money.

I seem to remember Floyd taking one big shot and leaning against ropes using good defensive skills to avoid Corley's shots and then proceed to kick Corely's a** all over the ring and winning every round however Cotto vs Corley Cotto was stumbling around the ring like a drunk man and was almost koed and won by questionable stoppage.

And the other wins mean nothing because Floyd is a boxer and Cotto is a puncher it doesn't matter if Floyd takes longer than Cotto to finish opponents Mayweather's job is to break his opponents down and win one sided decisions or late stoppage Cotto is brawler with who is very strong who comes straight forward looking for a knockout there both good at what they do and just because Cotto finish's them earlier doesn't make it more impressive than Mayweather dominating his opponents with great boxing skill and defense.

Please see video to refresh your memory.
Sorry but in my eyes a beatdown is more impressive than a decision victory, using defense and pot-shotting and history shows that boxing fans agree. Once again I am not saying because Cotto beat the same opponents faster he is better. I am saying he is in Floyd's league and will give him a good fight. IF he can get by Mosely.

That video is no different to what i said Mayweather hurt for split second leaning against the ropes then coming back and whipping Corely i think you need to refresh you memory on Corely vs Cotto because Cotto was staggering around the ring like a drunk man.
