I think Mayweather risked way more to himself in terms of losing when he fought Oscar at 154, who possesses speed, power, boxing ability, great chin, great level of competition.

    What are you fucking talking talking about? if cotto wins this AND beats oscar or pac THEN he has the name? are you seriously that far up mayweathers ass

    He has the name now, he is the best WW in world now, and was the #1 ranked when mayweather "retired"

    Now i am hoping this is another stunt to get more interest in him fighting the winner coz i like floyd, quit a big fan now. But if he doesn't fight the winner RIGHT away then he is a pussy and a coward, simple as that.

    Is is still in his prime, there is no excuse at all.
    Beating Margarito who nobody knows besides the boxing world how will that draw a larger audience for a possible Mayweather-Cotto matchup? And how am I up Mayweathers ass, I think Cotto deserved a shot after he beat Judah, but Mayweather wants money, so Cotto needs to be able to offer a fight that makes Mayweather a lot of money, and in order to do that he needs to beat ODLH or Pacquaio to make it mainstream.

    What I am saying Preme as I just did above is that Mayweather wants money so regardless of Cotto's impeccable credentials and skills he needs to make himself more of a financial draw, and to do that you need to get your name out there ie. fighting ODLH.

    Yeah he only fought Hopkins, Vargas at 154 ... Oscar wants a big name fight, and nobody around these weight classes draw that like Pacquaio does. Also Manny has a better chance then a lot of you guys are giving him. Its not a big chacne, but its there.

    The thing that suprises me is when Hatton made the comment about Floyd after his kayo win over Castillo, PBF jumped the gun and fought Hatton. But for years people has been clamoring about a PBF vs Margarito(that Tony definitely wants) and PBF vs Cotto that fight fans also wants, but in this case Floyd dismisses it as if they don't pose any challenge well if that is a fact then he should prove it.
    Fight fans like me don't want to get into an argument regarding PBF's skills coz it's obvious he's definitely the best skilled fighter but does that mean he will beat Cotto and Margarito, HELL NO!! PBF has prove it to us fans, and yes I'm sure he will come out of retirement probably to challenge a smaller man in PACQUIAO.

    Yep, The winner of Cotto/Margarito will probably get punked by the commentator into calling out PBF and this in turn will bring PBF out for one more fight.

    Just one fight is what we ask for from PBF, and that is fight the winner of Cotto-Margarito. If he beats em he can run his mouth all he wants and I'm pretty sure nobody can and will rebut him.

    mayweather is much better than cotto i think cotto is overrated sure he is a good fighter but what has he done except go life and death with an old mosley and a mentally fragile zab judah ?? i mean even watching his jr welterweight fights theres no names that stand out except feather fisted paulie, journeyman lovemore, and jouneyman mohamed who was only good in the amateurs, and torres who is can bang but is seriously limited

    I think we are all in agreement that PBF is much more skilled. But there is a reason that we actually have the fights! I mean if it was only skill that determined these things, we could just pair them up on paper and pick a winner like some board game. Saying you are the best doesn't cut it.

    Totally Agree, That is why it is a must to come out from under the bed and fight the true champ weather that be Cotto or Margarito.

    Well Cotto beat a HOF in Mosley he was past it but so was Oscar and that is the only HOF that the Mayweather has so they seem pretty close to me Cotto done plenty Mayweather at Cotto stage was the same let it be and dont start that Cotto has done nothing stuff its just sad.

    Mayweather was moving up in weight to fight oscar at a weight class he has never fought at before and comfortably beat oscar on points there is a difference plus i would say Corrales will be HOF and i think genaro hernandez is not far off hall of fame and neither is castillo and why do you have to say my comments are sad ? i never said cotto hasnt done anything i said he is overrated as i pointed out except for a life and death fight with an old shane mosley and a win over mentally fragile judah what has he done to show he can compete with mayweather ? i also never said cotto isnt good fighter but if you look at his resume at jr welterweight and welterweight i do think he is a bit overrated as i have said i have read few forums making out cotto is some sort of unbeatable force i just cant understand why i think cotto is very good but like i said he is overrated but that doesnt mean cotto vs mayweather shouldnt happen if cotto beats margarito

    I wouldn't say that Cotto is "overrated".... Perhaps by not having been through some serious threatening fights yet,,,, the word you could probably use is perhaps "untested"? If that's how you would put the quality of all his opponents up until now...

    But some people do think that he'll get past Margarito and a Mayweather... So far I havn't seen much from him that says he can't do this..
    I think once the signs are there that a fighter isn't all that,,, but people continue to ignore those signs,,, then I myself would use overrated as well...

    But I would more agree with you by saying that Cotto is truely untested yet... He is the hotest prospect at the moment though, and it's hard to overrate a prospect that hasn't shown too many signs of crumbling under the pressure of a big name...

    BUTTTT He WILL be tested over the next 2 years though without any doubt, and we'll ALL see exactly how well he's been rated by everybody..
