Does it matter to me what Mayweather makes? No, it doesn't. But we live in a capitalistic society based on money, and I'm sure we can all understand the longing for money. We can understand that Floyd would, like any of us, perfer a larger sum of money to a smaller sum of money. Yes, I would rather Floyd be fighting Cotto, but I can't fault him for rematching DLH for more money because it is a good business decision.

Yeah I'd love to see Floyd fight Cotto instead, just like I'd love for FutureShop to sell me that nice 46" Sony Bravia HDTV for $500. But I'm not going to fault them for not doing so.
Yeah I said that earlier. A good business decision on his part, shitty one for the sport. But he could have made more money if he fought twice this year. Wow that would have been a better business decision.

If you want to continue to believe that Cotto would not generate enough money for him, fine. Don't be surprised when your master keeps dancing around the subject well after the next DLH fight, pondering retirement, then decides to defend against another low risk opponent instead of a current true welterweight champion.
