You think I'm kidding? Mayweather-Cotto II on December 1 at MSG? By Rey Colón -The Sport Press A second bout between Floyd Mayweather Jr and Miguel Cotto might be held on December 1 in Madison Square Garden in New York following the success of the first meeting. Cotto himself mentioned that date for a possible return in 2012 and rejected an offer to fight on September 15 against Saul “Canelo†Alvarez, who is without an opponent after injuries to Paul Williams and Victor Ortiz. Cotto was in New York City approximately three weeks ago as were those who handle Mayweather Jr., who is currently serving an 87 day sentence in a Las Vegas jail. If Floyd gets out by September, they would be ready to fight on the coast East where Cotto is an idol. And as The Sport Press reported on May 14, the economic success and the closeness of the first fight, where the ‘Money’ praised Cotto, makes a second fight viable. According to a credible source, the date of December 1 is already reserved at the Garden.
Also it says Cotto turned down an offer to fight Canelo on September. I think Canelo beats Cotto so it's a smart move on his part to take the pay day and lose again to Floyd.
Well, he is a world class fighter. I am not going to say too much against Ortiz in this situation because it lessens the valor of Abraham against Miranda which I consider (along with Danny Williams' hanging arm) to be one of the most impressive and craziest demonstrations of toughness I've ever seen. However, he did have the lead and I wish he would have tried to see if he could make it. Internal bleeding = dangerous = bullshit. It was internal because it was inside his mouth, not in his guts. I'm going to the hospital next time I bit my tongue.
You are a jackass. You had it 8-4 for the guy that "lost"... of course it requires a fucking rematch. 90% of the world had Pacquiao winning that fight and he "lost" Who thought Cotto beat Mayweather?
Your question was, "since when does an 8-4 fight require a rematch." I answered your question. Perhaps you should have said, "since when does an 8-4 fight require a rematch in a fight the right guy won." Don't get angry because your question wasn't specific and you didn't get the reply you wanted. artie:
