I have a feeling this is the exact reason why Floyd turned down a fight with Antonio...

floyd didn't fight margarito because bob still owed floyd money from the gatti and zab fights. how the hell floyd gonna do business with bob arum or any of his fighters if bob arum won't even pay him for past fights

fights been signed according to Steve Kim.

now can we finally shut up about calling Cotto a coward? **** this **** is ridiculous the dude has never backed down from a challenge and now all of a sudden he is a coward? **** that show the man some respect. He may be fighting someone you guys dig (as do I) but how about we cut the bull**** about him being a coward because we ALL know he has proven otherwise.

There are always fans who take the bait on stories like this. Those who have been following boxing for awhile know better. Or at least they should.

cotto wants to get paid because there is a DAMN good chance that everything he has worked for could all come crashing down on the canvas July 26th. if he was demanding chingos of money for a scrub opponent, then I would be criticizing him for this alone. But fighters SHOULD be getting paid a lot for THESE fights. for these DANGEROUS fights. but if this dude doesnt fight Margarito after all the "I fight anyone my company wants me to", oooohh boy, i'll be one of the firsts denouncing cotto.
