        I did read somewhere that Arum wanted him to fight Margarito and Floyd didn't like the money that was offered at that time and turned it down and requested Cotto instead. That's is when supposedly Arum disapproved. No fault of Cotto's.

          Lol its like this why would you fight someone when your not even at a championship level cotto by then wasnt all taht we even kno it when he came to 147 everything changed. Floyd didnt want any at 147 He had no intentions of fighting him thats y he said he has to become a C E O. GTFOH with that

            I think he just wanted Cotto to leave Top Rank so Arum wouldn't get any of the money for the fight.

              I dont remember all that..but in that video he said all cotto had to do was
              "TALK to him"
              That's it...



              Why didnt Cotto take that opportunity to Public talk to floyd instead of hiding behind arum...


              Floyd publicly told cotto just "talk to me."
              So why didnt cotto get on a video camera somewhere and call PBF bluff???

                Cause floyds bull****ing second of all in that video if u watched the whole interview he says cotto doesnt sell enough . Also he said Cotto has to become a C E O Cotto doesnt feel the need to even mention FLoyd he doesnt have to hes like if it happens it happens he doesnt feel the need like he has to call him out. It seems like floyd is more obsessed with cotto than cotto with floyd. He said what he felt when they talked to him about floyd, but he didnt feel like he had to call him out.

                  LOL
                  that same mr arum put him against mosley and margarito, which are much more avoided fighters than floyd

                  seriously, try to think before you post. it isn't so hard, you know

                    floyd publicly said that he wasn't interested in fighting cotto when they where at 140 (by the time he was fighting gatti)

                    he said "cotto's too green and unexperienced"... why the hell would he care about that? isn't that GOOD for him?

                    cotto fights whoever arum gets him. it's pretty ****** from him, but it's his reality. he doesn't duck anybody, and NOBODY ducks floyd, since it would be that boxer's biggest payday
