    Whisper is that HBO offered a $4 million pot for a 50/50 split and Tony's camp weren't happy with that. He's looking at a keep busy fight now and a rematch with Cotto.

    Mosley will likely turn his attention to Andre Berto...

    Margarito has become too greedy after his win over Cotto. Seems like he isnt willing to fight anyone unless its for a shitload of money whereas before he was willing to fight anyone, anytime.

    Nah, fair enough I say. At the end of the day it's a job for Margarito, and if I were taking bombs like he does, I'd want more than 2 mill. Margarito's the one putting everything on the line, he should get paid accordingly. IMO ofcourse.

    2 or 4 million ain't enough? Margarito isn't exactly a household name.

    2 million would be Margarito's biggest pay day. Word is that his team is now going directly for a Cotto return. Stand by... be interesting to see how it pans out.

    I don't think this fight will be particularly interesting anyway.

    Good luck to him... Marg is the man at present he holds the marbles, I reckon Sugar would of been relieved when he knocked him back.

    The match appears all signed up & back on as HBO brought more money to the table after Mosley-Berto fell through.

    Margo KO to end Mosley's awesome career.

    Looks like Tony played the negotiations right....he's ended up with more bucks. Also helped that Berto has a mandatory against Collazo due and he would've been stripped of his belt if he fought Mosley. Good news...
