    I think Arum, though a jerk, might be playing it both ways this time. He hypes Pacquiao and if he wins, great, everything goes as planned. He sells Cotto short and Cotto wins, he becomes the next big thing he beat the "invincible" Pacquiao in a fight that he was not "supposed to win". He knows that the fight is 50/50 so even his lame antics may have another purpose. Those are my two cents and I could be wrong.

      Also, Bob said Pac sold 800,000 PPV in his last fight with Ricky and will probably match or surpass that number again while Miguel will sell 70,000 PPV in PR this Saturday.

          watch how much that comment changes if Cotto just happends to win and they try to make a fight with Mayweather. Then Arum will try to use those numbers to act like Cotto is the biggest star in the world. That fight has almost no chance of happening immediatly for that very reason. Floyd may give in some to Pac and vice versa but no way will he give in to a Cotto who hasnt sold anything ever, e****aly after Arum said that nearly all the success of this fight will be due to Pac

            There was no need for Arum to say that so he said it to take a shot at Cotto because he and Cotto don't get along very well. Cotto was very vocal when Arum took Margarito side in the whole plaster thing and Arum never got Cotto a fight with De La Hoya even when Cotto was asking for it and even told Merchant after the Abdulaev fight that he wanted De La Hoya.

              Arum is just speaking the truth. It's not like he's lying or something.
