Miguel Cotto on Sergio Martinez

[Rantcatrat]

Why not?

He ducked him before.

When did Floyd duck Cotto?

There's a video on youtube somewhere of him out there being interviewed basically shitting himself when the interviewer asks him why he won't fight Cotto. I wouldn't just make it up.

What fight did MM take instead of a Cotto fight?

Hatton. A light welterweight...

R U serious? Which fight would you have told Mayweather to take? Hatton brought in much more money then what Cotto would have brought in. And at that time, Hatton was undefeated(on paper) and was consider by many a real threat with his pressure, come forward style.

Hatton brought in more money. That is the main reason why Floyd fought Hatton. End of story. As for a challenge, there is no debate, Cotto or Margarito were looked at as bigger challenges then. At the time, the boxing world was practically begging for a Floyd v. Cotto or a Floyd v. Margarito match-up.

Instead, Floyd fought Hatton. Outside of his loyal supporters, no one gave Hatton a chance in that fight and Floyd actually got a bit of flack for taking it given Hatton's performance at welterweight prior to it.

You ask about what fight i would have advised Floyd to take? For legacy, Cotto and Margarito. For pure money, Hatton. .
