Cotto will never be the same after this fight.

yeah, he'll be bigger than ever - and also posing a strong argument for being the best welterweight in the world.

Yeah for all of Arum's faults, he finally got his wish and got two of his best in the ring. This fight is more meaningful to the purist than the general public, as the real fan understands what a battle this will be.

I AGREE IF HE WINS...OR HOW HE LOSES!!! BUT HE SAME WILL BE DONE FOR TONY.....I MEAN WHAT IF TONY KO COTTO THAN NO ONE WILL REALLY WANT TO FIGHT HIM **** TONY MAY HAVE TO MOVE UP IN WEIGHT TO GET A GOOD FIGHT CAUSE FLOYD WONT FIGHT HIM FOR ANY AMOUNT!!

Bob arum >>>>>>>>> Don king

anyday of the week i would rather fight for arum instead of king

he may rob his fighters of some of the money but atleast

he doesnt rob them Blind.

funny don king contract

"you will get 500,000 dollars for this fight which you will pay 1/3

to the company, another third for don king and another 1/4 of that

for the cost of the promoter provided training camp and the rest is yours

which leaves you with a grand total of 8,000 thousand dollars!!!!!!!

..........................................Before taxes"

I was just being a smart-ass with my earlier post. But no doubt, the winner sees his career taken to new heights, not to mention puts major pressure on Floyd AND gives the world even less reason to anticipate that upcoming POS sequel to the world's most expensive business meeting.
