    Surprise surprise, the two fighters Floyd "avoided" were Arum fighters. Also, only a dumbfuck would have fought Hatton instead of Margarito. Ricky was on a roll back then, undefeated, with a big name and a huge base fan, top 5 P4P fighter.

    Anyone who claims Floyd ducked Cotto is brain damaged. When Arum actually could have made the fight (when he was promoting both) he always claimed it was too soon for Cotto, etc. Only once Floyd left him he became another of the monsters that Floyd ducked when in reality everyone and their momma knows Floyd spanks Cotto around like a little kid. Stylewise this fight was always heaven for Floyd.

    Mosley was 2 years fresher....if one year makes a big deal between the time Mosley fought Mayweather and Pacquiao...then 2 years is an eternity....

    Cotto barely won 8-4, 9-3...

    Floyd must want his share of the pie sliced an extra few times...
