Humberto Soto wants Maidana in December, but will probably have to wait his turn



By Dan Ambrose: Former WBC lightweight champion Humberto Soto (56-7-2, 33 KO’s) is hoping to get a title shot against WBA light welterweight champion Marcos Maidana (31-2, 28 KO’s) in December. However, Maidana isn’t committed to making that fight with Soto in December. Maidana wants a big money fight or at least one that pays good.
Soto isn’t the big name that Maidana is looking for. Maidana wants a rematch with Erik Morales, who Maidana defeated last April by a 12 round decision.

tell Arum to pay Soto the $1 million in back pay, so that Soto could fight any Top Rank fighter.



from ESPN:

Lightweight titleholder Humberto Soto, claiming he is owed more than $1 million by Top Rank and that his promotional agreement with the company is expired, has declared himself a free agent, attorney and co-manager Michael Miller told ESPN.com.

until Top Rank pays Soto, Soto wont fight Antillon, Rios or any Top Rank fighter cause they owe him $1 million.

 

Here's Lorenzo quiting, like a chicken, after taking a beating from Soto.

you're right 100%.

He does need a better manager like Frank Espinoza, Cameron Dunkin, Shelly Finkel, to get better fights, cause the manager he has (Antonio Lozada) cant take him that much far in his career.
