Good on Cotto for this, why the **** should he bend over backwards to accomodate Pacquiao's catch weight demands? **** Bob Arum
I'm not sure what the offer was but I agree it should be at 154, no exceptions. Cotto only had to be a pound lighter than normal last time out, it made no difference at all but Cotto is now a 154 fighter, a big draw still and his own man. I say good on him.
cottos team already stated they dont need the money like other fighters who will bend at any demands to make a big money fight. The catchweight and venue was the deal breaker here but roach wont say that
a WW who cant even make it at the limit is being crucified for asking a 154 operator who as a champ of the division demanded to defend his title at a catchweight just two fights ago. i smell *****.
He knows he made a mistake at fighting at a catch weight last time,he knows not to fight at anything less than 100%....
Clear duck worthy of Duckfeather himself! Cotto still has nightmares about the evening Pac tapped that ass.
$7.5 million is less, Cotto is a major draw, Pacquiao done 1.25 million buys with him but when he fought Bradley he done 700k buys, Cotto is responsible for the large amount of the numbers even Mayweather done his best number ever other than De La hoya fight.
