    any others? Because we know that Mayweather and Sergio have already shown an interest in fighting each other in the future.

        Thanks again.
        No, actually you posted that Cotto would have to sign to GBP in order to make the fight happen. You're welcome again.

          Not even sure why GBP would even be involved in Floyd-Cotto. They should just cut those fuckers out. And, do it themselves.

            I said a long time ago that Floyd had to sell his soul to get that fight with Oscar. So did Bernard.

              Could be wrong, but off the top of my head I think maybe Baldomir.

                The biggest issue I see with all this is if Floyd beats Sergio or Cotto and 154 then the Pac fight will look more like a an easy Floyd win than it does now , every time Pac fights he is showing more and more how much Floyd will beat him .

                  It seems like they did. I don't understand it.

                    Floyd and Cotto don't have the staff to promote a big time fight and it would more expensive to put that mechanism together than outsource it to GBP, which is why Floyd always uses GBP instead of building up his own staff.

                    GBP needs to appear to be putting on big fights or their model will break down, so even if they make peanuts beyond paying their staff they can atleast sell themself to up and coming fighters in the future pointing to thegreat job they did promoting these top shelf fights. If they can't do that they won't be able to get fighters that could put on big time shows in the future.

                      Actually did not post that. I said Cotto will sign with Golden Boy if he chooses to fight Mayweather. Thats my belief. If he doesn't....whatever.

                      Doesnt change the fact that Mayweather only does business with 1 company, like Pacquiao. The point you CONTINUE to duck.
