That 3% is a lot of money. Cotto could buy a house for his mom or a new car with the money the WBO wants steal from him.
Cotto will beat Pacquiao by KO so I don't tjink about that. Plus is a catchweight fight so we are not playing by WW rules here buddy.

Clearer Heads Prevail: Pacquiao And Cotto Agree To A Real Fight
By Frank Lotierzo
Finally, clearer heads prevailed this week. Shortly there will be a press conference to announce that Manny Pacquiao 49-3-2 (37) the best junior welterweight in the world, will fight WBO welterweight champ Miguel Cotto 34-1 (27) on November 14th in Las Vegas. Cotto's WBO welterweight title will be on the line, however there is a 145 pound catch-weight clause in the contract. Catch-weight fights are not something I like, but this isn't too bad and shouldn't have much or any bearing as to the outcome. If Pacquiao wins, it's legit and he gets full credit, and if Cotto wins he gets full credit and it can't be said he picked a smaller fighter.Comment

Rumor: Cotto doesn't want to defend title against Pacquiao by SC on Jul 23, 2009 12:57 PM EDT in Rumors 8 comments
Miguel Cotto may not be putting his WBO welterweight title on the line against Manny Pacquiao when the two clash on November 14. Pacquiao wants a title fight, Cotto reportedly does not.

Michael Marley of the Examiner has some interesting tidbits that qualify more as rumor than true news at this point, but they're worth noting for sure.
The contracts are unsigned although there is verbal agreement on a majority of the vital issues.
...
Cotto’s lawyer, Gabriel Penagaricano Jr., has informed both Arum and WBO bossman Paco Valcarcel that Cotto has no desire to risk his belt against Pacman.
The WBO wants the title fight. Arum wants it, in large part because one of the major storylines for this fight is Pacquiao going for a title in an historic seventh weight class. And Pacquiao wants it, obviously.
Pacquiao is currently ranked as the No. 1 contender at welterweight by the WBO, which is shadier than all get-out considering he's fought once with a 147-pound limit in his entire career and it came against a guy who hadn't fought at 147 for the better part of a decade, plus Pacquiao's last fight was at 140, where he's the world champion now. The ranking isn't excusable and there's no logic behind it. It's typical sanctioning body B.S.
Joshua Clottey is the WBO's No. 2-ranked contender, and then you get into the usual mess where sanctioning bodies try to rank people and they'd never be able to reasonably defend 90% of the list. Kell Brook at No. 7?
Marley supposes Cotto is really looking for more money, which if the reports are true seems to be the most likely scenario. Pacquiao was talked into the 145-pound limit. Cotto wants to be talked into putting his belt on the line. Talk is green. Don't forget that Cotto also conveniently signed a new, two-year deal with Top Rank just after the fight was announced.
If this story picks up some traction, expect to hear Shane Mosley come out with.
So it means Cotto if affraiddddddddd of Pacman.... Grrrrrrrrrrr
He looks like a dog with his tail wrap around between his two legs.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa.
