    I don't think it's that much of a gamble anyway..Cotto has made plenty of dough and only has a few fights left in him I reckon.

    Great move... Bob Arum is a cantankerous old man that's a blatant liar and thief (according to Manny, Oscar, Floyd, Mikey Garcia, Chavez Jr, and now Cotto).. anytime you free yourself from a thieving liar it's a win.

    I've never been on board with this Cotto must fight Golovkin lark. Cotto spilled enough blood, been a true warrior and provided enough entertainment for me over the years I wouldn't want to see happen to him what I'm pretty sure would against GGG.

    The 50 mill was a outright lie according to fat dan who is a very reliable source he got much lower don't know the details of the deal but it much lower than 50 that's for sure.

    dan spoke to the officials at rock and they laughed at the idea of cotto getting 50 mill he said it on the Friday chat.

    Master stroke. You can't blame a guy for wanting to make money, but we can definitely blame him for not making the fights we want. lol
    Either way, he's fought enough tough competition in his career already. Most of his fans will support him regardless.

    Nothing else left to say . Not many fighters who have been offered this kind of deal .

    Not even Canelo himself .

    What?????

    GGG is a HUGE draw.

    Him vs Cotto would do 600K+

    Cotto vs Canelo would do 900K+

    Roc is gonna need to make THOSE fights to make their money on Cotto.

    If Cotto doesn't take those fights that Roc offers him, he'll likely be sued and end up losing his @ss on this deal.:lol::lol::lol:

    This is my feeling toward him, and why I don't want to see him on with Triple G:deal
