well style makes fight and cotto has more of a shot losing to margarito than he would with floyd

 

Don't be a ****ing idiot...Floyd ducks Cotto and Margo but you say it's because of money not because he's scared of losing...but here the reason Einstein...Cotto wants a little over than 5 million...which compared to the 8 million

Llegó la hora de cosechar. Esa es la opinión que tiene el campeón peso welter de la A.M.B. (Asociación Mundial de Boxeo), el puertorriqueño Miguel Cotto, ante el reclamo que le hará a su empresa promotora (Top Rank) por la pelea que sostendrá ante el mexicano Antonio Margarito. En una extensa entrevista que ofreciera Miguel Cotto al periódico El Nuevo Día de Puerto Rico, el campeón dejó meridianamente claro que su valor como boxeador ha alcanzado el máximo y es el momento que se le pague lo justo y razonable. Para su pelea contra Antonio Margarito solicitará mas de 5 millones de dólares; en la pelea que realizó ante Shane Mosley, su paga fue de 5 millones de dólares (la mejor bolsa de su carrera hasta el momento).

Miguel Cotto siempre ha manifestado que el trato recibido de la promotora “Top Rank” ha sido excelente y entiende que dicha empresa sabe el valor que él tiene en el mercado. En adición a la paga que reclamará para combatir con Margarito, Cotto solicitará una porción de lo que resulte en ganancias por transmitir la pelea por el sistema “pay per view” (pague por ver). En su pelea anterior (ante el mexicano Alfonso Gómez) Cotto recibió 3 millones de dólares. De acuerdo al periódico El Nuevo Dia, Antonio Margarito rubricó su firma para combatir con Cotto el 26 de julio de 2008. El manejador de Margarito (Francisco Espinoza) no quiso revelar la cantidad de dinero que recibirá su pupilo.

En cuanto a su enfrentamiento ante Margarito, Cotto manifestó que “va a ser una pelea ardua y fuerte, pero haremos lo que tengamos que hacer para obtener la victoria”. En estos momentos Cotto posee un récord perfecto de 32 victorias, con 26 “knockouts”, mientras que Margarito ha obtenido 36 victorias, 5 derrotas, con 26 “knockouts”. Por otra parte, cuando se le preguntó sobre el porqué su tío y entrenador no estuvo en la actividad, indicó que “ si no tienes su número de teléfono puedes averiguarlo y preguntarle a él las razones de su ausencia”. Al ser contactado Evangelista Cotto vía telefónica, se le formuló la pregunta por su no comparecencia a la actividad; éste contestó que “por compromisos previos no pudo estar presente”. “No hay ninguna diferencia con mi sobrino y voy a continuar como entrenador”, finiquitó Evangelista Cotto. ¿Será un truco publicitario la supuesta ruptura entre Miguel y Evangelista Cotto? Como dice un anuncio de un producto de belleza, “solo su peinador lo sabe”.

 

There you go . . . end of story. :yep

Just wait for the final results of the negotiations . . . before you people waste time on so much blah . . blah . . . blah and bullshits.

:rofl

 

Cotto hasn't signed because the fight isn't finalised yet.

There still working out the venue, the latest rumour was the MGM grand - When thats finalised, then the contracts are signed.

They've an agreement in principal.

 

It's not the official poster but who knows. It may become the official poster. :hey

 

I think he's waiting til Saturday to see if Forbes pulls the upset and he can fight Mayweather in September.

 

Cotto hasn't agreed to fight Margarito ...IN FULL YET!!

So the object is to what raise doubt? The only guy Cotto should be fighting other than Margarito is Pink Floyd Himself.

Love how its the Floyd fans tryin 2 spin this BS

It almost happend before, its due to happen this time. Shouldnt you save the songs until the negoitiations are finalized or abandoned?
After all? Floyd dont wanna fight EITHER MAN:nono Go slap that P4P ****** again and get a fresh start on the day

 

Omm yeah it was money that stopped the fight between Cotto-Margo the first time. It was said by both sides. Tony's manager said that they were told by Arum that the offer on the table was the only one that they were going to get and if they didnt like it they could fight Williams. Now Tony didnt make as much to fight williams as was offered for the fight with Cotto, but It was a fight that Tony had to take anyway. His manager said they would go ahead and get the Williams fight done then go after Cotto. He lost then won and here we are.

And dont give me that crap about not giving up the belt or feeling obligated cuz that wasnt it, it was about the money.

 

could be, :think or maybe he is waiting to see if he can get a piece of ole Goldie himself. Which is a fight that I would love to see anyways. I would love to see any fight that that involves two of the following welterweight.
Floyd, Cotto, Margo, Oscar(jr middle), Clottey, Berto, Mosley. Except Oscar Mosley part 56.
