Just read that Team Mayweather has no interest in Cotto.

You say that Floyd would have fought KT after Hatton, but why didn't he fight him BEFORE Hatton. Surely he had a better claim to challenge him as the undisputed LW king than Ricky did? Instead, he defended the LW belt against good, not great, fighters, then took the easy route though 140.

Sean let me ask you a question. How do you fight a guy that was inactive for almost 2 years and had numerous surgeries in his hiatus from the sport? Just a curiosity question

True, he was finshing old business with Castillo when KT was fighting Leija, but he could have had a crack at him in late 2004 (instead of Mitchell fighting KT and Floyd fighting Brussells). Also KT's fight with Hatton could just have easily been against Floyd. In May 2005 Hatton fought Kostya and Floyd fought Gatti. In both cases Floyd took the much easier road. I guess that's how to make a fight against a guy with numerous surgeries and coming of a hiatus from the sport

Well why didnt Hatton fight a tough WW to get his belt? Instead he fought Collazo and Urango. Why not Margarito? Did he maybe take the easiest champ on? No surely not.

It works both ways. In reality Hatton has fought one tough opponent in his career.
