    You are right on the money.

    Cotto has not been the same since the brutal punishment he recieved in the Margarito fight. Then on top of this Arum used him by convincing him to take a catchweight fight with a smaller faster fighter negating his advantage which was his size/weight.

      Its sad but its the truth, we may never see the Terminator version of Cotto again. The fight with Margarito damaged him. That dirty cheater!!! Don't know 4 sure & can't proove that he cheated against Cotto but imho, I think he did. As 4 Pacquiao & the 145 pound catch weight, Cotto is an idiot 4 agreeing 2 that bull****. Roach said he wanted Cotto "As light as possible". Smfh!!! What makes it even worst is that now Pacquiao is fighting Clottey at 147, a naturally big, strong Welterweight. What was the purpose of making Cotto go down in weight if your not gonna do it 2 the other Welterweights Manny fights?

        The purpose was simple to inflate Manny's rep at the expense of Miguel Cotto. I hope Cotto can come back strong but I doubt it. Two brutal beatings in a row is tough to shake off.

          Exactly, one is not better than the other. Both have there own agendas. They do what is right for themselves and nobody else. But, I swear the majority people on here give Arum so much **** and give Golden Boy a pass...

              Actually everything’s allowed in Dallas. I'm sure that Floyd would barrow Marg's old plaster wraps, were it not for his brittle hands. Then again, he could just OD on xylocaine the night of the fight.

                  Once upon a time it was "Top Rank vs. Don King Productions", now it's "Golden Boy vs. Top Rank" . Golden Boy is moving up in the business while Don King pulled a houdini and disappeared.

                    LOL at people hanging on to every word these promoters spew . That's their JOB, making us like you and me take pause, listen and realize we're sold on their product. EVEN USED CAR SALESMEN WOULD SELL FOR **** IF NEED BE :P.
