        This should be no surprise to anyone. It is the only reason Arum is finally giving Clottey a shot because he wants to keep the title under his promtional stable. Great move for Cotto, Arum wouldn't allow the Williams fight to manifest because of his hate for Al Haymon. I'm sure the fight would had already tooken palce & the Mayweather fight quite possibly if Cotto wasn't in Top Rank. Bob Arum is a legend, but he is a very stubborn old man & wouldn't push his feelings aside to do whats best for his fighter.

        On another note Bruce Trampler is the greatest matchmaker in the history of boxing. He knows how to develop some great prospects, & some of our favorite fighters wouldn't be anywhere they are today provided he wasn't on the Top Rank staff (Mayweather, De La Hoya, Cotto just to name a few)
        Arum is just using Hayman as an excuse not to fight Williams.

                I can't see why it would be a bad idea... he should go for it as long as he is fully confident and comfortable about knowing what promoting is like and what he is doing.

                    In an ESPN interview, When asked when is he is he going to fight Miguel Cotto; Floyd said something like "Me and arum can't do buisness, we don't see eye to eye./Cotto has ot be his own boss..etc etc" If Cotto wants that fight with Mayweather he should become his own boss or else go to Goldenboy Promotions.

                      Mayweather vs Cotto, fight of the century in my eyes. Always wanted to see this matchup, both so skilled fighters in different ways. Doubt floyd would take the fight though. He would prefer someone smaller, like a pacman or marguez.
