    Cotto's attrorney also says that Cotto was the one who picked Trout because of the chance to get another belt and his undefeated record. Also the Pacquiao fight did not happen because of weight issues and every other aspects(I been told Glove size was another debate)
    Why do I have the feeling most of it had to be Arum's demands? As ****** as it might sound. Dude I bet you Pacquiao doesn't even get to choose who he fights.
    Arum: Alright Manny, these are your options: So and So and So
    Manny: But I want to fight new guys?
    Arum: The fk you do. This is what you fkin get.

      If you put those two, we have a PPV event.

        But it would still be one hell of a fight, both are young so it wouldn't be hard for the loser to bounce back. The only problem is that Porter is GBP, ****.

            I really don't like Team Pac's sense of entitlement. Cotto isn't even the "best" option available, and you want him to submit to your demands again? Cotto is a better position than he was back in '09.

              Well they wanted Cotto because out of Marquez and Bradley he brought in more money but they know the risk of fighting Cotto at his full weight and wanted none of that. Cotto is smart because if he wins big against Trout he will still have the same options he has today but the fights will be bigger.

                I respect Cotto for taking a fight with Trout because he simply doesn't have to. He could just jump into the ring with Canelo/Pac for $$$. This is the first time that a 154lb top-earner has given one of the younger guys a chance.

                  Love this fight - classic veteran vs prospect match-up. The veteran isn't done just yet and the prospect is ready for the challenge. Can't ask for too much more. Nothing against Trout, but I'll be cheering for Cotto once again.
