The Cintron signing was great for Top Rank because they're stacked at 154. You can match Kermit up with Cotto, Wolak, Martirosyan, Clottey, maybe even Mike Jones or Pac.
Just have to hop Kermit the Frog doesn't show up again and hopping out of the ring was just a phase...
I believed Cintron still have plans to fight at 147. It was either a year o 2 ago, he weigh in at 150 to make a statement that he can fight at 147 again if there is a notable fighter willing to fight him.
Yeah, Bob is saving Cintron for a Cotto fight, most likely around the time of the PR day parade next year. If Cintron beats Cotto, then yeah he'll get Pacquiao in the fall of '12, and if the 154 RING title is in his possession, then it makes it that more enticing.
But I don't see how Pacquiao-Cintron is any worse than Pacquiao-Berto, unless the latter is for the RING championship.
Cintron won't stay idle that long, and Arum won't make him. He'll probably fight in the next 2-3 months.
