Obviously, he would go for Delahoya because of the money involved, but people criticize Mayweather for taking the fight that Cotto dreams about every day.

Meanwhile..................


Cotto is fighting ALFONSO GOMEZ, and please don't try to defend Gomez by making outrageous claims like "He's a real good fighter," or "He's a real tough kid that's gonna give Cotto a tough fight."

This is just as bad as when Antonio Margarito fought Golden Johnson, and if I recall, there were people out there making the same ridiculous claims for that fight as well.
Please clarify on what you base your assertion that Cotto would fight de la Hoya instead of Mayweather.

To me, fighting either one would make Cotto the most money he has ever made, so why choose one over the other? To me de la Hoya has a better shot at KO'ing Cotto than Floyd does. So for me, not only is Mayweather just as good a choice financially than Oscar, but also a safer one. Cotto might lose to Floyd, but he won't get Ko'd or "destroyed." Oscar might KO Cotto like the others before him couldn't.

Also, what are Cotto's options at this moment with everyone he should fight either avoiding him or being tied up?
