    who cares anymore. If ıt does happen ıt wıll be a dısappoıntıng controversıal thıng requırıng of course a rematch.
    It's what the fan's want, will the fight be a barnstormer I hope so or just hype it's a long time coming
    just hope we won't be all disappointed.
    Frankly I don't give a damn.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    The fact this fight has not already happened makes the sport look like a joke. Anyone who deos not know what boxing is like would be wondering why the top two fighters in the world have not fought each other.
    Compare it to any other sport. If MANU and Chelsea never played each other. Jochavich and Nadal not playing each other. Or the two best hundred metre sprinters not competing against each other in the final. The sports would have a lot less fans. If it was to promote the fight then they have overdone it as most people are losing interest.
    Like you said Tenshio. If one of them realy wanted the fight then they would be diong everthing to make it happen. But like a lot of boxers in this sport now. They are businessmen and not warriors. We need more warriors back in this sport.

    Here's the thing, IF this fight ever comes off, what happens when the fight itself sucks? After 1 or 2 action rounds it could easily become pattern repeat for 30 long minutes.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

Cotto will give Floyd trouble. Unlike PAC Floyd will not throw tons of punches. He will back up and counter. This favors cotto.

    I think that favors Floyd because he is faster than Cotto, has faster feet, hands and reflexes. Also Cotto damages easier now so Floyds accurate fast counter shots will do damage. But Cotto has deceptive speed and a good jab but I don't see any off Cotto's game giving Floyd trouble. It would be a wide UD win for Floyd, sit back and counter all night.
