Demarcus "Chop Chop" Corley Still fighting and winning

[Ron Swanson]

Cotto was a little bull back then, would have loved to see Cotto/Floyd at 140, but of course Floyd waited until Cotto was past his prime before he dared get in the ring with him.

Floyd picked out Gatti rather than Kostya or Cotto at 140lb because that was the real challenge. Floyd, even cried like a girl when he won the title against the B level fighter he classed himself.

Sickening.

This was a time when you had Kostya, Cotto AND Hatton at 140, and who does he fight? Arturo Gatti.

TBE indeed.

Yes, Hatton beat Kostya and Cotto moved up after struggling at the weight. An ATG would have fought the best.

Yes and decent people would recount the events honestly. But this is boxing so we have to read horse shit lies.

At 140 Cottos people when approached said "we are not interested in a Mayweather fight right now".

But don't let the truth get in your way. Tell your stories.

Yes Floyd had set his sight on Gatti, so you do not let your fantasy get in your way.

Uhh... yeah............ you put it in quote marks, so it must be true.

Let's deal in real facts instead. It was Mayweather who mysteriously and inexplicably "retired" right around the time that a fantastic, profitable fight against Cotto would've made all kinds of sense. Floyd stayed out for 2 years of his prime, only to come back and fight the woefully undersized Juan Manuel Marquez in a fight none of us boxing fans ever understood. Then let's not forget the long, drawn-out, frustrating-as-hell negotiations to fight Manny Pacquiao who, although everyone likes to float around the theory that the fight not being made was all Pacquiao's fault, in reality it was just another long, drawn-out bout of chess playing and cold calculating by Floyd.

Meanwhile, you've got a Miguel Cotto who fought everyone and everybody. He fought Margarito when no one else wanted a piece of him. He suffered his loss at the hands of a cheater, robbing Cotto of a few precious peak years, and to his credit he came back from that and added to his brilliant career.

Comments gotten from another boxing forum and putting quote marks around them don't make them facts.
