I still don't see the hype in PBF-Cotto... no disrespect to Cotto, I like him a lot... But as far as skills, Cotto is great, but Floyd is on an ATG skills level as far as Im concerned.
I suppose I see the curiosity in the fight because Miguel IS a very good fighter, but the skill difference to me doesn't hype me as much. Not that I wouldn't be excited if the fight got made, because I would be..
The fight I want to see is PBF-Pacman.... a fight between TWO #1 Pound for Pound fighters... both LIGHTER fighters, now fighting around the same weight... The skilled technician vs the adrenline rush... it entices me like crazy...
This would be the most hyped fight that could be made for me besides Marquez-Vazquez 4...

He have said it since he won his first totle at 140.
It's hard to leave th sport at that age trust me when he gets to 30 he's gonna change his mind about retiring at 30.

Good post Reed. Although I prefer Cotto/Mayweather, Cotto is an offensive fighter he does everything good offensively but lacks defense. While Mayweather has both pretty much balanced with underrated accuracy. A Pacquiao/Mayweather fight sounds more exciting, you know why? I think Pacquiao would make Floyd fight because Floyd would have to go after him. Cotto/Floyd, Cotto would be right in front of Mayweather trying to go to the body which is what Mayweather likes.

The Tyson quote... " They come with their primative skills & dare to step in the ring with me" Immediately comes to mind....
Oh ****... I only answered the question... Didn't know it's become a Miguel Cotto thread...Last edited by mickey malone; 04-17-2009, 05:40 PM.

I'll start
Roberto Duran=Manny Pacquiao
Tommy Hearns=Paul Williams
Marvin Hagler=Shane Mosley
Benitez=Miguel Cotto
Althoug beating either one of Cotto or Mosley is good enough..
Make your list
what WW does Floyd need to fight in order to compare it to SRL's resume at WW
Note: If Hatton beats Pacquiao then Hatton was Mayweather's Duran even though Hatton and Duran can't be compared at all.
