    Are you suggesting Barrera won? Everyone knows Barrera can be an emotional twat as great and as G as he is. He left and look what it got him, not nearly what GBP did for him by any means.

    And when Floyd who is not a GBP fighter came in over the weight limit GBP punished him and rewarded their fighter JMM monetraily.

    So what's the problem?

    Top Rank makes GBP look like a boxers Utopia.

    I'm sure it can work like that. Winky Wright Promotions also used GBP as the main promoter for some fights. The thing is that if Cotto is smart he will have GBP invest in him and will have them bring him along in the latter part of his career..

    Difference between Cotto and Mayweather, is that Cotto isn't in a position to call shots like Mayweather. Cotto will need favors.

    Bob doesn't give a **** about Cotto. I hope he leaves Top Rank after this fight.

    Only the worse coward would call a boxer a twat, especially Barraera a coward from the safety of their computer

    GBP certainly is Floyd's promoter. Just because Margarito (Tornado promotions), Cotto, Mosley, Marquez etc... etc ...etc...are all registered promoters, it doesnt make them real promoters

    I wouldnt trust any of the big promoters but just tally up the bad decisions and you will see that most fall for GBP and before that it was Don King

    STFU :lol:.

    Barrera is a warrior you ****ing moron...But he can be a twat... Just because we admire them in the ring doesn't mean we have to ****ing like the smell of their **** you ****ing shithead. :yep

    Mayweather is a free agent who makes deals with which ever company he wants to use to promote him...He just so happens to like GBP who take care of their fighters.

    this is his last fight under his Top Rank contract. Depends on if Bob tries to use old promoter tactics of stalling Cotto's impending free agency (injury time, etc..)
    Looks like Arum will address it tonight.

    Cotto-Kirkland would be great, but if Cotto wins tonight, then Cotto may end up being the man opposite Floyd May 5th.

    everybody under TR is playing 2nd fiddle to the Pacman.

    hard to get the best deal when Pac is within your division.

    I like Cotto I would like to see him cash out on the next 4/5 fights before he is done.

    I feel he should go independant route like Floyd no doubt he could do it, you know those Puerto Ricans would support him.
