That's fine. There's plenty more fighters to fill his spot:

Canelo
Kirkland
Lara
Andrade
Henry
Trout
Dzinziruk
Vanes
Rosado
Angulo

A 154 tournament? I love that idea. I had no clue that was being planned by ODH.

As far as Cotto, he has nothing left to prove to me.

No tourneys have setbacks cotto doesnt need to be in a tourney when hes tryna win titles n divisions bet you it will weak competition in that tourney

I don't really give a rats a$$ about some 154lb tourney. Golden boy ain't fooling me. Because I know that the other guys are gonna be matched tough as hell & they'll still find some kinda odddon'tbelong for ginger to ease past.

i personally do give a big rats ass about a 154 tournament. Although it'll have to be round robin for it to be legitimate. I think Cotto was smart to bail on it though, he's a worn fighter.

GBP made a mistake not signing Cotto to a three fight deal when he fought Mayweather. They should have never let him get that fight. Without them working out a deal to have him fight for them a couple of times. GBP gave him his highest pay day with nothing in return. They got to be kicking them selves in the head right now.

Cotto ducked Canelo and now he don't want to prove who the best is at 154. I've been saying this, Cotto is a fake image of what he truly is. He hasn't really done much at 154/140 compared to 147.
