    The difference is Cotto is promoted by Bob Arum and Bob Arum wants him to stay undefeated for as long as he can. Arum is running out of marketable talent and is going to hold on to Cotto's undefeated run for as long as he can. He may talk about Floyd not wanting to fight Cotto but the thing that Arum isn't saying is that he made Floyd an offer ... and Arum knows Floyd just as much as anyone and knows that all it would take is a substancial dollar amount.

    Cotto is like a robot and isn't going to cross the line ... he's going to say what his team wants him to say and they're going to be carefull about who they talk about - because they know that Cotto isn't all that he appears to be and all the talk about so far has been a product of the good marketing skills of HBO.

    You're a better businessman than I Reg. I tip my hat to the site fee number.

    But... I still think NYC, home of hip hop, second capital of Puerto Rico, makes for a wilder scene for this showdown. Think Bernard vs. Tito, with the difference being that at this point in time, Floyd is a bigger name than Bernard was then. The crowd intensity would be INSANE.

    At least Cotto hasn't been BOOED in NY as Floyd has in LV.

    Cotto doesn't have the balls or the clout to call out Floyd ... when Hatton beat Castillo - he didn't hesitate to call out Floyd ...

    I gave you the site fee numbers for the Hopkins/Calzaghe fight. Arum is trying to get the Vegas rule changed so that Margarito/Cotto can happen in Vegas. Sometimes you have to use common sense, and use deductive reasoning. Common sense will tell you that a sold out fight in Vegas will do bigger numbers than at MSG. Think about this, why would these venues pay a site fee? I'll tell you why, because these fights will bring people to these venues and they'll spend money. People will spend more money in Vegas rather than at MSG as Vegas has Casinos and hotels at the Venues and MSG doesn't.

    I wish I had a set, but I don't. But maybe you can check your toy chest for it. Well, I guess on welfare, you can't own much toys. Oh well, back to suckin dicks for a dollar for you. :thumbsup

    you can google which venues has the higher site fees (Vegas or MSG). Common sense really. An obviously i dont agree with every pbf fan so you can shut the **** up with that bull****.
