    Cotto isn't fully hooked with Arum nowadays like he was in 2011 and before.

    The 40 million offer would only make sense as a long term deal with Haymon.

    Gaby Penagaricano, Cotto's legal adviser has been swamped with phone calls regarding the widespread rumblings of Cotto being approached for a potential rematch with Floyd Mayweather Jr. on May 2nd.

    Bob Arum said that reports of Al Haymon presenting a $40 million dollar offer to Cotto are laughable at best.

    "That is just completely false," Penagaricano said.

    40 mill seemed like a little much when I first heard the figure, even with Cotto's fan base and with the lineal MW title on the line.

    Wait did these reports come from bob arum? ... Ofcourse he was lying...

    "i dont know why schaffer is trying to contact me, i dont know anything about mayweather, his team and who negotiates on his behalf"

    Few weeks later

    "the megafight cant happen because i know for a fact floyd has signed to fight morales"




    All hate for arum aside im glad this was confirmed to be bull****, not seeing pac v floyd may 2nd would hurt but it wouldnt be that bad knowing we got cotto v canelo instead

    No it didn't come from Bob, you idiot. It clearly says that Bob is laughing at the offer and is saying that it is false.

    Learn to read :patsch

    misread it as bob arum stating the claim and the last line as cottos promoter denying it calm your pinoy feathers boy

    my point still stands about arum tho ;)
