$1million fine for COTTO?? FK OF PAC/ROACH/ARUM!!!!!!!!

[Peek_A_Boo]

Ok just read this article true or not i do not know, but if it is true COTTO should tell manny to shove that DEMAND up roachs butt and shove his head there too.

Heres this like http://www.************.com/2009/08/...he-limit-news/

And for the weight issue. COTTO WON that belt AT 147 so he is THE CHAMP and has the RIGHT to choose at what weight he wants to defend it. If manny says no fine so be it.

Seriously if he says no to cotto, who else out there is a BIG MONEY FIGHT FOR HIM??

We all KNOW mayweather aint coming down any lower than 147 agsint manny. If cotto out of the pictured manny can go back to making 5million a fight who gives a ****.

Even if he fights mosley he aint making a guranteed 12million plus ticket/ppv share. Mosley aint that popular!!!

[Haglerwins]

Cotto should come in heavy out of spite. This **** makes Pac look like a diva.

I could imagine the storm that would rain on Floyd if he tried anything like this.

Pure truth...

Floyd went up 7 lbs and fought a guy that out wieghed him by 20 on fight night. If he would have said anything close to this theyll be yelling ***** and coward. Double standards FTW.

dont worry he wont be fined...
just mind games and fight hypes

[MANGLER]

Enuf about this **** already. At this point, only way for Cotto to still be WBO champ after the fight is to put the belt on the line and beat Pac. He should be able to handle that since Pac ain't a WW. Dunno why all the heat over this simple ****.

Pacquiao Wants Cotto Fined $1 Million Per Pound Over the Limit? – News


[IMG]http://www.************.com/wp-content/uploads/pac32434.jpg[/IMG]By Manuel Perez: Not only will Manny Pacquiao be getting the bigger cut of the revenue and having Miguel Cotto’s WBO title on the line at a catch weight of 145 instead of the normal welterweight limit of 147, but he also reportedly wants Cotto to be penalized a whopping $1 million per pound that the Puerto Rican fighter comes in over the 145 pound catch weight that Pacquiao and his trainer Freddie Roach have set for Cotto for the November 14th bout at the MGM Grand, in Las Vegas, Nevada, according to Nick Giongco from MB.com. Giongco reports that Pacquiao wants the “a penalty of $1 million per pound” that Cotto comes in over the 145 pound catch weight. (http://www.mb.com.ph/articles/212734...-excess-pounds).

Cotto, 28, could make as much as $10 million for the fight on the high end of the scale, Giongco writes, but with potentially hefty fines for every pound that Cotto comes in over the weight, he could in theory end up getting much less than that. In contrast, Pacquiao is guaranteed to make a minimum of $12 million but will likely make much more than that by the time the ticket sales and Pay per view figures are final. But if Cotto ends up getting fined an absurd $1 million per pound over the limit, Pacquiao could make out like a fat rat while Cotto ends up going hungry.
I thought the business about Cotto having to put up his WBO welterweight title at 145 was a stinker, but this pretty much takes the whole cake. I hope this doesn’t take effect because that would be an enormous fine tilted in the favor of Pacquiao.
The Filipino already has everything else in his favor – weight, revenue split of 65-35, gloves, location and likely Cotto’s WBO title on the line – but this is going a bit too far. Cotto is the champion here, not Pacquiao. Who cares if Pacquiao has won titles in six different divisions in the past?
Pacquiao became popular recently when he defeated a shot and weight drained Oscar De La Hoya, and a war scarred Ricky Hatton. I tell you, if you put another fighter in the same position as Pacquiao, say Juan Manuel Marquez, he likely would have done the same thing that Pacquiao did and he would be the one getting the glory right now and not Pacquiao.
It’s all about Pacquiao fighting the right people at the right time. He already got boxed silly by Marquez twice previously and should have lost both fights in the minds of many boxing fans. Pacquiao hasn’t shown much interest in fighting Marquez a third time after winning a terribly controversial bout last year where Pacquiao defeated Marquez by a 12 round split decision.
So Pacquiao goes from that fight into bouts against three vulnerable fighters – David Diaz, Oscar De La Hoya and Ricky Hatton – and all of a sudden Pacquiao is vaulted into the status of a pound for pound number #1 fighter in the minds of some.
I put it to you. If you put Marquez in with the same three fighters that Pacquiao fought, he would have likely won each one of those fights and proved that what Pacquiao accomplished was no big deal. It’s like the mineral pyrite, which is what is also referred to as ‘fools gold.’
It has the same yellow luster as real gold to the naked eye, fooling people not knowledgeable about mining but to professional miner, they know the difference immediately and aren’t fooled one bit. Well, I’m the miner and I’m telling you I can see a lot of fool’s gold in what Pacquiao has recently accomplished with victories over De La Hoya and Hatton and it’s sad that he’s being thought of as the pound for pound number #1 fighter in boxing while a talent like Marquez goes ignored.
As for the $1 million dollar fine per pound, if it does exist, Cotto needs to put his foot down and tell Pacquiao and Roach what they can do with their penalty. While Cotto is at it, he should stick to his guns and not put his WBO title on the line unless Pacquiao agrees to have the fight take place at the normal welterweight limit of 147 instead of the handicapping weight of 145. If Pacquiao is afraid to fight at 147, so be it. Pacquiao can then go hunt down another alternative like David Diaz or one of Pacquiao’s other quality opponents.

[BoxingChaos]

The million dollars is for extra pounds. Cotto will be fined one million for every pound he comes in over 145

[Peek_A_Boo]

Yea but its a ****** demand. THeir plan is to DRY OUT COTTO. If that million dollar **** is true then in order ot avoid the fine cotto WILL COME IN ROUN 143 JUST TO MAKE SURE that he don't get fined.

Cotto would not risk coming in exactly at 145 cause who knows what would happen on the scales at the exact moment. SO if the fine thing goes into place to make sure cotto will LOSE 2-3 pounds more just to not get fined.

Now that is a ***** MOVE!!!!!!!!!!

Pacquiao beat Marquez twice whether you like it or not with the admittance of the judges with the mistake on the scoring on the 1st fight and the knockdown being the difference on the second fight.

Pac should be fighting Clottey then and Clottey needs to have that recognition. Don't be proud on the belt he won against Jennings. Cotto is the B side of this promotion. Whatever Pac wants, Cotto does.
