Well... that's not a great news. DLH should fight Cotto. But! I'm sure that DLH haven't decided yet and a lot of rumors are coming from everywhere. Rumors of talks between Arum and Schaefer for a DLH-Cotto fight, then Oscar fighting JCCJr., even DLH vs. Zab Judah was a possibility according to some source. In the past few days I think Arum started to getting more and more nervous as he wants an exact answer from Oscar if he's gonna choose Cotto or not. I see this Cotto-Gomez rumor as a tactic to urge Oscar to make his decision faster. Oscar is surely hesitating between the possibilities and I don't think he has decided yet. And I'm sure he knows that after all the comments he made about how he DOESN'T want another boring fight against Floyd he just picks a more exciting fight. So don't worry, it's gonna be Cotto as after all the rumors why he ruled out Floyd ('cuz his daddy) he finally chose him in the end (now it's Millie). I'm not worrying right now. I'm gonna start worrying when Arum announces that Cotto vs. Gomez is official and DLH will not fight Jr. either. And still: Mayweather is occupied with his MMS bullsh*t so I don't consider DLH-Floyd II as a very probable match-up for May...
If this fight happens I expect all talk of Mayweather being an all time p4p fighter to stop. All time greats fight the best, and this was just predictable.
Until Team Mayweather comes out with an OFFICIAL announcement, I'll reserve the harsh criticism. If it does happen? :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( Maybe these two could start their own personalized line of womens lingerie.
There's no way Arum could know for sure. Just because GBP didn't strike a deal for De La Hoya/Cotto doesn't mean that the fight for De La Hoya/Mayweather 2 has been finalized. It's probable - but not likely as yet.
**** DLH and **** pretty boy *** molested gayweather too. boxing doesn't need this at all. Once again boxing is going to be put into the mainstream light presented to all the people by a gay ass fight in which both fighters don't want to get hurt just go into a 12 round sparring match just to make millions.
The only thing worse would have been if Don King had been a heavyweight boxer as well as a promoter------:smoke
