        Oscar and Floyd had contracts with Arum too...and they BOTH left his ass.

        Cotto stayed too long.

          As far as the Cotto/Floyd situation at 140, you need to learn your facts. It was in fact Floyd who said no to a Cotto fight at 140. Exact quote from Floyd when asked about taking on Cotto at 140..."Cotto is still too green. He needs a few more tuneups"

          Cotto on the other hand welcomed the fight. Exact quote from Cotto..." We’re rivals,” Cotto said. “Mayweather is a star of the sport and we’re in the same company. Mayweather was a great champion at 130 and 135. We don’t know about 140. When the company says the time is right to make the fight, I’ll fight him. I think it's a good fight. I know Mayweather's a great fighter. But I know I can beat him."



          School yourself boy.
          Floyd was the first to call out Mosley. After he got rejected he stopped listening to Mosley. Cotto was offered a fight at 140, Arum said no to Floyd. That’s why Floyd said he was green since Arum wouldn’t allow it happening

            oscar and floyd left arum when they had the chance...... not when they want it 2...

            they had to wait till the terms of their contract let them ....

              They bought their contracts out..Cotto never had the bank to go that route.

                    Floyd and Mosley played too many games when i came time to getting in the ring. Therefore i have no interest in seeing them fight now.

                    I see you've changed your tune on the Cotto/Floyd situation at 140. Now its ARUM who turned the fight down. That very well may be true. You originally said Cotto was asked and HE turned it down.

                    The problem that many people have with Floyd is, once he got to 147, he made too many excuses why he wouldnt fight both Marg and Cotto ( 2 fighters who were viewed as the most dangerous in the division at the time). From "he's not a draw" to "im not fighting to prove who the best is" to "he must become his own ceo first" to "Arum's a grumpy old man and i cant do business with him" to "I'm retired" ETC........ His excuses were never ending when it came down to fighting those two guys.

                      exactly!!

                      what I mean.. is that they couldnt do it before.... for whatever reason.. then when the terms of their contract let them.... they...

                      1 buy it out.. like mayweather did..

                      2 just finish it like oscar did... <- if thats the case.. im not sure how that play out...


                      I mean.. is not like .. u are in a contract.. and suddenly u feel like leaving.. and u just go and ask for it..

                      it have to be on the estipulated terms on the contract....

                      dejavou...

                      dont you think cotto have 700,000 to buy his contract????

                      Im pretty sure he does have the bank to do it... BUT thats only happening if his contract have a clause that let him do that...

                      thats how it goes... in the terms of the contract..

                      not because U WANT TO

                      thats what i mean.
