All he's done there is duck the best.
If Margarito and Cotto are the best the division offers, He beats the best easily, at least in Margarito's case. I don't see how anyone could see otherwise. I think Manny is the best fighter he can fight, and the most difficult fight, just like going to 154 against Oscar was, just like fighting Hatton IMO was. These are fighters who's styles have made them bad matchups for Mayweather. I think Cotto could give Mayweather some problems, but would you honestly expect Mayweather to come back to boxing and give Cotto a chance at his title when Miguel got knocked out by Margarito? Now that Manny is in the picture there is really nobody else for Mayweather to fight.
