If Mayweather is ducking Shane, its so that he can set up the biggest fight in boxing. I don't see that as taking the cowardly way out. Also if anyone is as dangerous, if not more so, than Mosley its the winner of COtto-Pacquiao. If Pacquiao can beat Cotto decisively or stop him then thats more than Mosley was able to do, and Manny has the same physical skills that MOsley has that would give FLoyd a difficult fight. If Cotto wins, he's already beaten Mosley, and I think his style is better suited against Floyd because he likes to come forward more, and the body is the easiest place to hit Floyd.

What I want is HBO to offer a little more money to a Berto-Mosley fight, that fight would really raise the winner's profile, and it could set up the winner of that to face the winner of Mayweather-Cotto/Pacquiao.
