Floyd "I wont fight Cotto if he defeats Mosley"

[Thread Stealer]

One thing IS for sure. Cotto is more effective when he goes to the body. When Floyd goes to the body, there is hardly anything behind his punches.

no, floyd has dropped and hurt a number of guys to the body.

he lacks the viciousness to the body that cotto has, but cotto is perhaps #1 in the sport in body punching.

guess we'll have 2 wait and see what happens.

floyd is talking now about not wanting 2 fight cotto, but let's see what happens if hbo and the public wants it and there is a huge offer on the table, and the best offer for him.

is the hate arum and floyd have towards each other stronger than $12-15 million?

i think not.

very true.. I just don't understand what would make Floyd NOT see big $$$ in a Cotto fight, he's the only other highly talked about opponent in that weight besides Floyd even over Oscar De La Hoya at this point. I don't get it, but like you said we'll just have to wait and see how Floyd handles his business.. 100

[2501]

why does $$$ even matter? wasn't there a thread not to long ago on how he said he doesn't even have to fight anymore because he's made so much money that he just wants to fight the best?

[FloydNO1KO]

most of you are wrong. If floyd wants a money match then it would be a rematch with hatton in Britain.

[Chipper]

Floyd is scared of Cotto because he's young and has the style to beat him.

He's not scared of Mosley because he knows Mosley it's getting old. I bet Mayweather will fight a 39 year old Mosley because it's a safe fight.

PBF thinks he is working hard enough by fighting Hatton so dont want another potentially tough fight in cotto.. Retirement was too comfortable for him.
It cant be about money all the time for PBF. I thought he was interested in securing his legacy further?

[sonofisis]

He claims there is no money in a fight with Cotto, yet says he would'nt mind facing the winner of Cintron/Williams. WTF? How much money does he think is in a fight with either of those guys? PPV sales would be dismall due to the lack of notoriety with casual fans. Another story is, he wont fight Cotto, because he hates Arum. WTF?? How old is Floyd, 12? If Cotto gets past Mosley, and Floyd gets past Hatton, a fight with Cotto would be the most logical matchup for both fighters. It will push Cotto into the #1 WW contender spot. A showdown with Cotto could net Floyd 10-15mil. For someone who claims to be such a smart buisness man, would that be smart to turn down just because he doesnt like Arum?. Is Floyd really that damn sensitive? Personally, i dont even see Floyd getting past Williams. But since Floyd says that he is only interested in BIG FIGHTS from now on, what other opponents are out there for Floyd in order for it to be classified as a "big fight"? Oscar/Floyd II ?.........nah. Most fans were turned off by thier first glorified sparring session.

deevel79, you're fake as hell also for pretending to paraphrase Mayweather in the thread title when you didn't even hear the radio program in question.

Mosley has a much better chance at beating Mayweather and people are blind to not realize that Floyd tries his bes not to do any business whatsoever with Bob Arum, which has been covered in this thread ad nauseum..

[KingTito]

everybody, including mayweather, knows thats the fight that has to happen if they both win

[AntonTheMeh]

Wtf? He didn't get knocked down due to his chin, that was more of a balance issue. Cotto almost got his head knocked out by Judah before he started to panic and low blow. Cotto was way more stunned by Judah's punches than Mayweather, Corley too..

eat a **** mr farrahkhan
