A fighter can fight the best out there in his own weight class and make $$$,look at Manny.

BTW,I don't want this thread to turn into a Floyd is ducking Cotto thread,he's not(well at least I can't make that assumption just yet). It's merely Floyd's unwillingness to fight a legit 147 pounder!
Yeah its bullshit really, not at all ideal even for a Mayweather fan. I understand he wants to make his money and I can't say I wouldn't do the same for another easy 20 million beating up on Ricky Hatton but the fact is he's been there and done that. He beat Hatton as convincingly as you possibly can so I really did want to see the Cotto fight at the end of the year or early next year. Who know's though, maybe they did explore that option but Cotto is also tied up until the end of the year?
I expect that fight to be made by the middle of next year. As far as fighting a legitimate welterweight I just don't think anybody is worth it apart from Cotto...maybe Sugar Shane but that would be the only fight I see as a slight challenge to Floyd in the Welters.
