WBO President Backs Cotto's Story With De La Hoya

[victorythagr8]

You mean that same gift that that marquez had in the first fight.

Anybody who seen that fight knows that Pacquaio got robbed. There were so many close rounds after the 3 knockdown and somehow Marquez got a draw plus one of the judge admit not scoring of the knockdowns. And the second fight was too close to judge and Marquez got a knock down. Marquez is a great fighter but he had two close fights with pacquaio. If you want to watch a robbery watch Bute vs Andrade when andrade knocked Bute the **** out, but bute had a minuted long 10 count. And this was the 12 round in the last seconds. Now that was a robbery. Marquez vs pacquaio can go both ways.

True that the last fight of Pac vs Marquez could had gone either way, but one thing is for sure is that Marquez can compete here at the highest level.

True that, Marquez vs pac could've gone both ways, it just went pac's way. Also true, Andrade got robbed big time.....

All had to say about with who Cotto sign i said it on 07/11/2009 on a post on 07/11/2009 and I stick to it (see paste below).

I beleive Cotto won't make any decision on who he will sign with, until after the Pacman fight for several reasons.

The first and most obvious reason is that if he wins his signature will have doubled his value ($). (this is a risk because if he losses his value will be alot less)

If Cotto wins he would be probably signing wit GBP if they can guarantee a fight with PBF (if he beats JMM), which will Cotto's biggest payuday, and after that fight win or lose he will still have Mosley as his second fight. I agree with those that say here that it would be easier for Cotto to fight PBF with GBP than with Top Ranks. PBF has publically (ESPN)said that Cotto will have to deal directly with him if he wants the fight. Wether it was an excuse or not from PBF, to not fight Cotto (PBF knew that Cotto cant negociate his own fight because he was signed by Top Ranks) the fact is that Arum and PBF hate each other. The only problem for GBP with this is that they will probably have Mosley really upset, because Mosley will be demanding to fight PBF also.

If Cotto losses to Pacman, PBF will be out of the picture for Cotto and he will probably need to go to his plan B which will be Margarito when, and if, he is reinstated in February and this plan B will be easier if he resigns with Top Ranks which can also have a Clottey-Cotto II or even a Mosely rematch because Mosley is desperate right now to fight anybody doesn't matter who's the boxer's promoter.

These are going to be some very interesting months for Cotto's career and if we wins the upcoming fight he will be ranked up there with the best superstars while making lots of money but if he loses
