    In other words, Eze shouldnt be saying he is locked up.

    Why has Arum never mentioned Floyd? Or gone after the champion? When did champions start going after challengers?

    Cotto's Uncle came out and said after the Hatton fight that they'd rather face DLH instead of Floyd. Then they waited around to see if DLH would fight him.

    You dont really have anything to prove your assertion. You need to stop making assertions that you cant prove.

    No, he actually makes a respectable point. Cotto is signed to fght Gomez in April, then the plan is for him to fight the winner of Cintron/Margo in July, and then Mayorga in the fall or winter. Of course all of these fights aren't set in stone, but that's the plan right from the mouth of his promoter.

    I dont see Cotto dodgeing Mayweather... So yes we can blame him. He isnt fighting the best fighter available he fights who gives him the most $$$.. We can all hope that Oscar kicks his ass then we can stop talking about mayweather.

    But he speaks as if all of these fights are set in stone, and they arent. The boxing business is negotiable and we all know that, and Cotto could very well take another fight.

    Eze is going from thread to thread saying he is locked up. Its possible, but we don't know for sure.

    Can't prove?

    It was Arum who said they wouldn't go through with any fight with Cintron unless it was Clottey, yet he makes Cintron-Margo 2.


    Clottey will be due his mando, Cotto will either have to fight him (which arum will probably set up) or vacate.

    It's highly possible.

    And he could easily have enough of a name to vacate. It wouldnt be the first time.

    Well, a lot of it is of course dependant on injuries and things of that nature. However, there is a clear mapped out plan for Cotto for the rest of the year. That plan includes Gomez, Margo/Cintron winner, and Mayorga.

    Agreed, but if you had posted that in the first place I wouldnt have questioned you.
