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.
LOL..............................

No you ignorant NUTHUGGER, if Cotto was afraid of Manny, he would not be fighting him.

Are you that blind? Did you not read my post about ODLH sticking his spoon into this pot? ODLH is the one who is making sure that Cotto does not put that belt up.

Cotto is not afraid.

If Manny wants that belt so bad, make the fight at 147

Manny is the one who seems to be afraid to move up to 147 as they insisted this fight be at limit 145

Get a clue you dumb nuthugger.

ODLH's money and his pride are working behind the curtain full time on this one.

Why else would Cotto not defend it and would rather pay fees and or even allow himself to be stripped? You know why, because Cotto made a deal with ODLH. What do you think that little golf meeting was about? You think they were exchanging beauty tips or something? You little kids are starting to sound ****** as the day is long. Open your phuking eyes.

Read this One come from my old freind here...

Don’t shoot the messenger.

Don't waste bullets on an innocent party on this furious flap which has rocked Pacland, Cottoland and the entire boxing universe.

But take aim at Miguel Angel Cotto all you want, have target practice if you wish, because he is the one giving orders to his respected San Juan attorney, Gabriel Penagaricano Jr.

I don’t know Junior well but I do know his father, a fine man and a distinguished attorney who was a trusted counselor to Don Jose Sulaiman and the WBC long before the WBO was created.

It is the great warrior from Caguas who calls the shots, taking his lawyer’s advice into consideration, and Cotto considers his most valuable piece of ***elry, the WBO welterweight title bout, to be just another bargaining chip on the table with his up and down relationship with promoter Bob Arum.

If Cotto doesn’t agree that he is defending the WBO diadem against Manny Pacquiao on Nov. 14, then shame on the Boricua Bomber. He’s getting paid millions partially because of his world championship status and not because he’s a unique entertainer.

I hate to say it but it might be a massive golfing scandal if it turns out that Cotto’s reluctance to put the WBO belt on the line against eager to snatch it Megamanny.

Tsk tsk tsk... If somebody tell this to me anyway... Its better to retire from boxing because of Cowardness....

[-Swizzy-]

I say cotto should *** the title. he should vacate it because he won't need that title after the pacquiao fight. he could go for the ring crown which is the only crown that matters. those alphabet soup belts benefit up and comers more than established fighters. and cotto will be established after the pac fight even more so than he already is.

i think the belt will be on the line anyways.....it makes the fight more interesting......it'll be either cotto defends it or pac rewritting history again having a belt in his 7th div......

[fearlessbong]

So its better for Pacman to fight Mosley, Mosley is very much willing to fight Pacman in lower as 145lbs down to 140lbs with both of their belts on the line..

Cotto has no balls in defending his Title....

LOL....

You just proved how little you know about boxing.

We are not talking of Boxing knowledge here baby.

We are talking of fight that will give Pacman the best concessions....

Cotto is nonsense at all

I think he is talking about this

Pacman in lower as 145lbs down to 140lbs with both of their belts on the line..

Is pretty much impossible for both titles to be on the line because Mosley and Pacquiao hold them on different divisions.
