I recently read an interview with Nacho Berestein. The trainer of the toughest and most macho Mexican fighters had this to say about one of his young fighters: "The best fight for him? The best fight is the one for the most money. The best fight is always the one for the most money."

Its always about the money. In your prime you have to make the most money. We'd all love to see Cotto-Mayweather, but the De la hoya fight makes a lot more money right now. Maybe next year a Cotto-Mayweather fight will make the most money. My guess is if Cotto is still unbeaten it will be the biggest money fight out there.

Floyd has earned the right to choose the biggest fights, like it or not he has earned the right to fight Oscar for the most money while the 147 lb division sorts itself out and he can fight who ever is left standing for the most money possible.
