Whatever. People will never be happy with Mayweather there's always a freaking excuse for everything. All these "boxing pundents" want Mayweather to fight Hatton even Brian Kenny screaming at Floyd "Who beat Kostya tszyu!! Who beat Kostya Tszyu!! You aren't the real champ!"
And now Floyd finally decides to fight Hatton then its "Hatton was handpicked by Floyd he has so many holes" and etc etc etc he needs to fight Cotto.
Mayweather deserves respect for his skill, and I gladly give it. But he wants to be remembered the best in the game and a legend. People are saying Hatton's handpicked, blah blah, he should fight Cotto.
I agree.
He should fight Hatton, Cotto, Margarito, and anyone else who has shown they are at the top of their division. If he's as good as he claims to be - and he very well might be - then the easiest thing in the world should be to make these last few fights count, and step in with the most legitimate boxers challenging him. As many of them as possible. He's plenty young, and if he wants the legacy, he has to earn it. So far, he's made a good start.

Both were damaged goods, Sharmba was splattered in 3 by Tszyu before Floyd relatively struggled with him (by relatively, Sharmba was damaged after the Tszyu shellacking, was in the fight a whole lot more than he was with Kostya and lasted a round more)
If Sharmba was damaged goods then Castillo was on ebay ;)

Yeah, you're right. Let Floyd fight Hatton. Cotto will fight the winner of Margarito-Williams. And after Floyd beats Hatton and Cotto wins his fight, we'll have the REAL mega-fight showdown. Why rush things?
