          I don't remember what the title was either, but I know it's somewhere on here. Maybe Dios has it. Or hell, Skils do you have it?

                Can you not put 2 and 2 together or do I have to spell it out for you. MONEY. Floyd feels cheated by Arum. He feels he should have been making twice the amount he was making but Arum was getting that money to put in his own pockets even though he wasn't in the ring taking the punishment. Money began their hatred and, IMO, money can END their hatred. A big money fight can quell hatred when both sides will get paid.

                  skils, Floyd was getting payed a hell of a lot considering what he was doing in boxing. He was getting paid 3 mill a pop for plenty of fights.. For the span of 3-4 years.

                    Ok, and u dont think that a cotto/floyd matchup can "quell the hatred" between the two? Floyd/Cotto at MSG would be HUGE.

                      I never said I agreed with the statement I just said that is how Floyd feels. Floyd got paid 3 mil to fight Henry Bruseles.........Henry Bruseles? He was overpaid early in his career in the hopes that he would be a big enough star to sell ppv's and get Bob Arum a ****load of money. He is becoming a ppv star, but Bob Arum missed out on the big money.
