    Cotto expressed in an interview yesterday, that he will not duck Pacquiao and that he is willing to fight him at a catchweight between 140-147 if necessary. Cotto said is not overlooking Clottey and said that he needs to get past Clottey first on June 13th, but the idea of fighting Pacquiao is one that he would comtemplate. Pacquiao will be in attendance at the MSG and Arum is looking to start negotiations for a possible megafight in December. :deal

    Everyone get ready for Pacquiao Vs. Cotto.
    (If Cotto get's by Clottey, The Bobfather already has the contracts signed)

    Agreeing to a catchweight could be VERY dangerous for Miguel.

    He should try hard to get Manny back up to 147.

    I heard also Valuev said he will not duck Pacquaio but he is not
    looking after the Chagaev fight, he have to be fully concentrated now.

    Just in case it might happen. It's a win-win situation for Arum. He wants to build up cotto coz manny is nearly in retirement.

    Clottey and Marquez are holding some pretty big wrenches all of a sudden.

    It's a win/win for Arum. Both fighters under his umbrella & he has the "They are warriors & will fight anyone & don't duck fighter's" angle to play. (Plus it's true)

    Cotto has to come thru with Clottey tho..
