    Bob Arum said in the Pacquiao Vs Mosley press conference that Margarito was suspended in Texas because of the damage inflicted by Pacquiao. He said Margarito won't be ready for the Septembre rematch.

    Does Cotto honestly even want this fight? I know all his fans want it for him to prove to themselves he lost because Margo was cheating, but didn't Cotto say he didn't want Margo to make anymore money off him? Maybe a good thing for Cotto.

    He did say that after the whole brick thing came out, but I'm sure he has said something positive towards that rematch happening.

    I still want to see this bout, no matter how many years late it is.

    wow, didnt expect that, pac really damaged his face. Martinez has a hbo deal for september, might as well be vs cotto, floyd would be good as well.
    Anyone else think bob is going to put him in there with cintron though?

    At least this way Margarito will have a chance to get a tune up hopefully against a legitimate 54 lber prior to fighting Cotto.

    It just makes more sense to have both guys coming off relevant wins before facing one another.

    You are right! Forgot about Cintron. TR could possibly go that route although Cintron doesn't deserve that paycheck.

    I doubt Arum puts in Cotto with Mayweather. Another loss for Cotto and Arum's 2nd cashcow will lose alot of stock. Arum wants to finish Cotto's career with a Margarito 2 and Pac 2 fight to cash in on Cotto before he retires.

    Damn another full year out of the ring to heal? The damage mustve been due to the headbutt

    It seems Arum is interested in matching Cotto with Chavez jr. on October.
