Cotto deserve's a chance because he's undefeated. He has flaws like every fighter but has maintained that zero in tact. Oscar keeps losing fights but he's still a winner in terms of paydays. Give the newer guys a chance at greatest and a big payday Oscar. He had his chance and he choked.

Unfortunately a DLH rematch will be happening in September but don't worry, Floyd's next fight is guaranteed to be Cotto. You know how I know? Because it's guaranteed that after Floyd beats Oscar again, Larry Merchant will grill him about Cotto so hard in the post fight interview that he'll be forced to fight him. Wouldn't be surprised if Ole L.M. called him a pu$$y to his face just to make sure it a done deal

tbh i aint even gonna mention a PBF v Cotto match just yet especially since he might be fighting Tony next and if the Tony that showed up on Saturday night shows against Cotto then u can forget PBF v Cotto.

The title of this thread should really be "Root for forbes if you want to see Mayweather vs Cotto in 2008."

Oscar is just delaying a Floyd-Cotto fight until 2009, he's not completely preventing it. That being said, I wouldn't mind seeing a Forbes upset win at all.

If Forbes actually wins the fight then I'd say that the fight in September will end up being ODLH vs Hatton at Wembley. Mayweather will be left out in the cold and I think that he'd probably still hold off on the Cotto fight until 2009. He'd most likely fight Mosley.

I think your scenario here has some validity. But if Oscar loses to Forbes, I would sure hope that Oscar would take that as a sign that he needs to hang up the gloves for good.

Anyone else notice that Oscar is on the of the new Ring mag? How'd that happen?

When was the last time there was a good media conference crashing by a ducked fighter?
