    According to the NY Daily News, PBF is suing Top Rank, claiming that Bob Arum has illegally held back royalties from Past fights, including the fights Zab and Gatti.

    PBF claims that Top Rank never supplied a proper accounting of the revenue from those fights, and that he is owed money.

    This may be the reason why Cotto vs. PBF will not come off. :think

    Arum has always been a scum bag and liar. The sport will be better when him and King retire.

    It's called negotiating. You have to hagle with the numbers so your fighter can get the money he wants. However, team Winky was firm on the 50/50 split.

    Without signatures, it's all preliminary. There's a million things that could've caused Arum to ask for the extra 5%. It's unfair to heap all the blame on Arum, when we don't know the whole story.

    ****.

    Normally I wouldn't give two shits, but this makes Mayweather-Cotto harder to make.
