It was Miguel Cotto who drove Floyd Mayweather Jr into Retirement says Famed Promoter

[Mar]

I just think cotto and hell even margarito can make thier own presence felt in this sport without always referring to floyd like he is some type of benchmark. Before he so called retired, these same people talked about how he was a fake champ, runner, ducker, cheater, the real source of the aids virus all kinds of shit, now the man is (cough, cough) gone and now he not such a chump yet instead a name to use to make yourself look like a bad-ass since floyd was so terribly scared, so much so he retired. Then again maybe they see the future and are still attempting to build a fight that everyone thinks is going to happen...either way it's just getting old. There is going to be in my opinion an awesome floyd-less fight this weekend. Cotto and Tony are all the hype we need.

See, at the moment, there are only two fighters Floyd should fight and that is Cotto and Margarito (not Oscar AT ALL). So if Floyd beat those two, the logical and reasonable fight fan would say there is nothing else for Floyd to prove and would accept his retirement

It would be great if anybody accepted someone's retirement specially when they dominate the sport like Floyd does (even though he has 2 questionable wins) but I can assure you boxing fans will still be crying because he didn't face X or Y.

I want to see Floyd against Cotto or Margarito

I may be the minority but I just don't see Cotto or Margarito having the tools to beat Floyd. Don't get me wrong, I would savor Floyd loosing convincingly as much as I did when I saw Hamed loose but I just can't see those two guys beating Floyd. And if I had to pick between Cotto and Margarito, I would think Cotto would have an edge but still, not enough to beat a guy like Floyd who has not shown flaws/weaknesses.

which makes fans kind of side with Cotto and lean towards Floyd being afraid or wanting money first fame later.

Afraid? I doubt it. Money? Sure! Any smart boxer out there and any of us would not waste a fight for a lesser/smaller paycheck. Imagine a guy who fights 2 times a year and pick a guy who will not even bring half of what he already earned in other fights? Forget it.

Amen to that, brother.

I can't wait to bump this after the fight... And to say Arum is an idiot makes you look like a fool...

Nice job sounding like a moron

I WIN!!!!

[ssss]

As i said on the other thread similar to this one lets wait and see if Miguel Cotto actually wins first you can never write off a fighter as strong as Antonio Margarito especially with his granite chin/determination/workrate......

Plus his physical strength and sorry Miguel Cotto fans even though i like Miguel Cotto i am a fan of Antonio Margarito and i did enjoy the beatdown in the last few rounds lets just hope this fight doesn't ruin Miguel Cotto mentally.

No... taking Taeth seriously is funny

[Thread Stealer]

Arum is so full of it.

Yeah, it was Cotto who drove Mayweather to retirement, when Mayweather was set to make another $20+ million against De La Hoya.

Mayweather could've fought De La Hoya again, made another huge payday, and then retired. Who passes on an opportunity to make another $20 million plus? As said before, someone with a ridiculous inflated ego and delusions about his box-office appeal.

[truth32]

money mayweather give up 20000 because of cotto dont see it myself. but i wounder what aram would say now that cotto just lost to margo this statment he made lets me knw he thought cotto would beat margo with makes me think the reason margo has been in the shadows is because his maniger aram was pushing cotto wat harder the statment should have been somthing like this my 2 fighter cotto and margo caused floyd to retire
