Floyd has found an excuse for ducking Cotto in the future.

Cotto has to beat Floyd.
Floyd doesn't have to beat Cotto unfortunately.

I beg to differ.

Floyd needs to beat the best. And he hasn't done that yet.

Floyd knows Cotto is a serious threat.

Floyd Mayweather has beaten plenty Threatening opponents.

Ricky Hatton was the best Light Welter in the world and makes regular appearances on the pound for pound list.

Diego Corrales was pound for pound number 7 when he fought Mayweather.

Jose Luis Castillo was also pound for pound when he was beaten by Floyd.

Oscar De la Hoya is still a highly talented and respected fighter when beaten by the smaller Mayweather.

Had you said Floyd hasn't beaten the best at Welterweight you may have been correct.
