Mayweather has beaten a few world champions and/or P4P contenders, though. Corrales, Castillo, Hernandez, Gatti, Baldo were all world champions @ the time Mayweather beat them. Corrales had been stripped of his belt though.

Cotto has only ever fought for vacant titles. Thats significant, IMO and speaks to how careful they had been with Miguel before his move to 147.

What do you make of PBF's first fight with Castillo? Hopefully we will see Cotto and PBF face off before PBF actually retires. Who do you got in that fight?

That was a very, very tough night at the office. I thought Mayweather won, but ts no shame in going that close with Castillo. He's a great fighter. Duran lost to Estaban DeJesus who isn't far removed from Castillo. That people still say Castillo was robbed, speaks to the foolishness of internet fans.

I dunno about Cotto v Mayweather. They're both way too good to get beaten. I give Cotto a great chance. Especially if the fight is about a year away.

I don't necessarily want to re-hash an old argument, but the closest score for that fight being 115-111 speaks to the foolishness of Boxing judges.

Mayweather needs to fight true welterweights still in their prime. He hasn't done that yet. He's ducking people. He doesn't want any tough fights with true welters. The longer he ducks Cotto or Margarito the dumber he looks. However,he's getting alot richer by doing it. Some people are warriors. Some people call themselves "Money". That should tell you why he makes the decisions he has. He IS NOT a great welterweight. His big ass arrogant mouth is why sooooo many people dislike him. He did it to himself. A slick,tactition in the ring who talks like a murderer. What a fraud! If he beats Cotto or Margarito, I'll give him his due credit at welterweight. Especially if he beats Cotto.
