So Cotto and Mosley are beaten by the TOP 2 P4P Fighters in the World...

...Yet Mosley goes on the fight Sergio Mora, and Cotto is rewarded with a title shot at 154lbs.:huh

 

Its called Rot Stank promotions.

They do what no one else can.

That is bribe officials and sanctioning bodies.

 

Well in terms of ability to draw a crowd and in terms of skills Mora and Foreman are probably around the same, the only difference is that Foreman is 1 of the 4 possible champions in the WBA... You can hardly call the WBA belt holder a champion anymore.

 

Mosley is done as an elite fighter. I said before the Mayweather fight that he had no chance because the Margarito fight was perfect for him and clouded the judgement of fans, but the last impressive win over a good opponent before that, was against Vargas the first time and he wasn't dominating that either.

Cotto just got beat by a better man but has mixed things up and is a major threat again. There's no way Mosley can do the same and I say that as a fan of both fighters.

 

like you said. they lost to the best two fighters in the world.

 

thats because mosleys promoters dont give a **** about him

they give him a margo fight then dont find him an opponent for over a year, hell they offered floyd marquez before they offered mosley.:-(

 

They offered marquez again for the may date? (may vs JMM 2)

 

no the original marquez fight, mosley wanted to fight floyd when he came out of retirement but gbp offered marquez.

 

because Mosely is old and has no fans

cotto is young and has lots of fans

simples

 

I believe Mosley will be around and still could do wonders while Cotto just got lucky to have a ticket playin at 154 by winning over a guy with a leg problem. Cotto is young and still a good fighter but doesn't belong heavier than a welter.

 

cotto isnt that big of a draw

ive heard lots of Puerto Rican fans dont like him

 

he's the third biggest draw behind pac and floyd.

 

u got any ppv numbers or something

im genuinely curious to know

 

Cotto fought Yuri Foreman, Mosley fought Mora.

Foreman is promoted by Top Rank, Mora by Golden Boy.

Foreman > than an old, weight drained Mora anyways.

 

From the looks of things, Cotto wasn't exactly being rewarded. If anything, Top Rank was looking to cash him out while simultaneously building Foreman up. Just look at Bob Arum's reaction to the stoppage. Anyway, Foreman was making a voluntary defense against a known, name opponent opposed to a bout with a forgone conclusion against some nondescript, unknown as is the case in many voluntary defenses. So I don't see the problem here.

And Mosley is fighting Sergio friggin Mora. What's so criminal about that? :huh
