Cotto's WBO title will not be on the line against Pac -- Cotto not willing to pay fee

co-signed.

 

How do you know this is true?

The WBO said the title will be on the line.... and if Cotto beleive's in himself then why not defend your title against such a great fighter like Pacquiao.... it should be an honour for Cotto to do such a thing, that's the way I would see it anyway.

 

Its smart business by Cotto and Arum.

They realize that there's a good chance Cotto will lose. These days if a pound 4 pound fighter loses, especially if he gets knocked out.. he kinda fades out of the mega-fight picture, at least 4 a while.

So if Miguel loses, he still have a belt and thus he would still have relevance, assuming he is beaten and badly like everyone thinks.

 

coward

 

arum would pay for the fee, no problem.

 

Cotto has to pay the fee and if he chooses not to it's because he doesn't want the title on the line not because he cant afford it.

 

no tittle, no problem. it doesn't diminish pac or cotto's victory. but i doubt that it would not be for the WBO welterweight belt come November. someone has to pay the fees for this one.

 

If it's for an official title it sells better to the casual fans.

 

Any link on the source?

Because WBO already assured the fans . . . the belt will be at stake.

. . . sad to say that Cotto might be stripped of the title if he refuses to pay the sanctioning fee.

 

F*ck the WBO good move by Cotto dont pay those thieves **** f*cking alphabet boys (Valcarcel) are pathetic they are the one's killing the sport.
Cotto deserve's some respect for standing up to those pieces of ****.

 

yo man, figured I'd hit this thread up. oh boy looks like that title issue isn't resolved

I read another source that said the contracts weren't even signed yet

oh boy.

 

You can't really say that for sure, Cotto has a huge PR following. Plus you can be sure that Arum offered big $$ to make sure that the fight stays in-house.

Anyway, Mosley presented a lose lose situation for Pac. If Pac chose to fight Mosley @140, Pac would be seriously criticized for fighting a drained Mosley. If he doesn't, he's ducking mosley. He chose the lesser of the two evils I think.

 

Yes . . . no documents have been sign yet . . . so there's still a long way to go on this issue.

 

I think I said this before .. but if this fight wasn't slated to be at a catchweight of 145

Cotto would _____ to pay the WBO sanctioning fee, or risk being stripped.
