    :think

    he has some good points their, would you want all this changing of venue and **** going on with 2 weeks to probably the BIGGEST fight of his career. Still, doesnt sound like a man full of confidence

    I think he's looking from a moral POV, as well as fact he wants a fair state commission and may not like the more lenient Texas commission..

    Arum is freaking out. Just cut the call off & ordered @TooFred to end it. Whoa. Gets crazier every moment.


    haha it seems Arum didnt expect that attitude from Cotto!

    I'm hoping Cotto is just fishing for a few more coffers or hoping it moves to Puerto Rico.

    Yes it appears some fans are. There was no need for Cotto to take the fight in the 1st place the cheat shouldnt even be in the sport

    :deal Miguel ducks no challenge.

    From his interviews after fight's 'i don't call anyone out i just leave it to my promoter and he choose who i go to fight next' to his attitude towards the sport he's as warrior like as they come.

    Tbh, I dont understand why he doesnt want to fight elsewhere.

    Everything will be totally legit, his fans will still see it, and he has a chance to absolutely destroy a disgraceful human being in the process. That should be motivation enough to fight elsewhere should NY refuse.

    I just dont get it

    All the amateur psychologists on here. I would do the exact same thing. It's arum and margo's fault if this doesn't come.off.

    Alitude plays a massive part. If he's fighting in a high altitude arena forget it. The cheat as been doing altitude training Miguel hasnt. Hence advantage the cheat

    Mr Taylor, as a massive Cotto fan, do you agree with him refusing to fight anywhere but NY? Or would you rather them fight in say, Texas, if the NYSAC refuse?

    You can understand where Cotto is coming from... Changing venue, etc last minute is a bit shitty...

    But... If he wanted revenge, or to put the record straight so badly, he'd fight Antonio on the moon

    Not really. He surely would be able to stipulate places he would fight. rather than throwing every other venue worldwide out of the window.

    I wonder if they offered it to him in PR, would he still have this stance :think
