    How is PBF running when Cotto is booked up for 2-3 fights? For Cotto to call PBF out is ridiculous b/c Cotto wouldn't be able to fight him b/c of prior obligations. :deal PBF is fighting in the WWE, but thats for a crazy amount of money...I would do it.

    winky made it clear that he is not pricing himself out of this and if it doesnt happen its because arum doesnt want to make the fight. he wants the fight and even tho most people think pavlik will win, winky doesnt think so. he thinks he is the best

    He was calling out Floyd before that and fights get unbooked all the time:patsch

    HBO insiders like Emauel Stuart heard Floyd wants no part of Floyd

    WTF is anf? When was 'he' calling PBF prior to 'that'? please be more specific. Fights get unbooked, true. However you can call people out all you want when you have a full plate. Its all fun and games until PBF mops up Cotto. Then who will be the Cotto huggers next champ to take down PBF?

    HAAAAAAA! When has Winky Wright punished anybody? It's all about continuing to market Kelly and hopefully a bout with Abraham at the end of the year. This is a short lived business for the fighters and guys deserve to make some money. Bob Arum has been in this business a lot longer than some of us have been alive, so let's give him the benefit of the doubt (because Kelly does)- that he will make the best fights for Pavlik. What's wrong w/ Pavlik-Lorenzo in A.C. June 7th? Lorenzo an unproven commodity, so were a lot of champions at one time. Winky is still a great fighter, but what does he want right now-To chase down money fights and retire in a year or so. Pavlik has an agenda, so let's let give Top Rank a little leway to do the job!

    It was a crappy ambush interview, but I get the feeling that Arum knows there isn't enough money for both fighters unless it goes pretty big on PPV. He sounds like the expecations for T/P 2 didn't get what they thought it would and he needs to build Kelly's name.

    Jesus christ.... Get a ****in grip man.

    You children act like Cotto is BEGGING to make the fight but Arum is twisting his stache and saying NO with an evil laugh. BOTH fighters obviously have different plans this year. Get it through your think head please... :patsch
