Arum told Cotto that he has until tomorrow to sign the contract to fight Mosley and that the offer made to him is firm and it won't change...

Cotto: "Easy. If they don't want to give us the warranties that we are looking for...The fight is off."

Cotto: "The one who decides if I'm going to fight is me...They don't have to be giving me any ultimatum."

WOW. that sucks. do you have any ideas as to what part of the deal Cotto wants that he isn't getting, is it money?

Cotto doesnt have cold feet does he? Is this purely a money thing?

people are see Don King as the devil well Arum and Oscar are the same thing.

many promoters do this and they take bigger part of the deal.

I think If Cotto goes out he will do same as Floyd and to hypen on of his fighter at the expense of Cotto saying he ducked him

All I know is that the last contract between Cotto and Arum had Cotto earning a minimum of 2.5 Mills per fight...I know that for the Judah fight Bob wanted to pay Cotto the same he got for the Urkal fight, but then they got into an agreement...I don't really know what's going on, but since the fight is a co-promotion between Top Rank and GBP maybe Cotto feels that he's getting screwed...

I just hope the fight gets done, Mosley is the best opponent out there for Cotto and the same way around...

Cottos has shown that he is not afraid of anyone so why would he back out because of cold feet? You're a douche.. I think Arum is trying to rip him off.. But we will have to wait and see. Cotto wouldn't pass this fight that could make or brake his career though so it must be something big.
