LEONARD ELLERBE: "We Begged for the Cotto Fight!"

[Brail]

Promoters, Politics & Money = Business = Why fights are Made or not made.

Here is a recent short Video of Leonard Ellerbe educating a boxing journalist/writer about the business of what goes on behind the scenes.

Its pretty interesting but dont you think he contradicted himself by saying,"ohh we sat with bob arum and begged him for the fight", but then towards the end he says,"he brings nothing to the table". Which one is it, Floyd wanted to face him before but he doesnt want to face him now thats all I got from that interview And the Cotto from Now is way better then the cotto from before.

ellerbe begged for some ****.

Exactly, now he has improved as a fighter, increased his fan base and his PPV worth they dont want Cotto no more? Makes no sense unless they just thought they could beat him before but not now

so negotiations did happen..so can we cut this floyd fears cotto bull****..

Floyd doesn't fear Cotto.

But it's a little weird that they wanted the Cotto fight when it wasn't a big fight, and didn't want it when it was a huge fight.

Hopefully they'll fight again. For some reason, I feel like if it came down to Shane or Cotto, Floyd could pick Cotto just to spite Shane for acting like a begging, media whore, *****.

I doubt it I have a feeling he would fight shane if it came down to it. He would rather work with Golden bOY than Top Rank no matter what he says, unless its for big money of course, and the only big money or big enough money would be pac.

Seriously, the excuses for not fighting Cotto are as long as grocery list with these ****in people. First he's too green, then he's not a draw, then there were discussions but it didn't happen lol gtfoutta here

[rape]

the notion of floyd ducking cotto won't go away that easily mr. smith

ellerbe contradicted himself within a 30 second time span. lmao.

team mayweather isn't known for being 100% honest.

If they would be a photo next to the word "gayness" it would be a Leonard Ellerbe's one.
I don't listen to anything that comes from his ****sucking mouth.
