    Ken Hershman will be fired...

    ...once Cotto signs a two-fight deal with Golden Boy.

    HBO overpaid for a Cotto fight with a scrub... that made Cotto look like he was back on top. And, now instead of having his next fight on HBO, it's going to be with Showtime. Downright laughable.

    HBO winning? I don't think so. Firing your head guy doesn't mean you're winning.

              This is more about Golden Boy attempting to avert Canelo's forthcoming abysmal PPV marketability. If Cotto gets better offer from HBO against Martinez, Schaefer is screwed. Worst part is what if Canelo loses his next fight against a nobody?

              GBP had to get Cotto on board ASAP. Otherwise...

              Hey, ****, how about making Lara vs Canelo next year?

                      To play your game. Cotto is finished and on his last legs. Which ****** network would fork out a 10 million dollar package for a fighter well on their way out.

                          Read this article from a couple months ago with Dibella explains the situation with HBO, Cotto, Martinez, Top Rank, etc.

                          HBO's Grasp of Cotto Fight Raises Industry Eyebrows
                          http://www.boxingscene.com/hbos-grasp-cotto-fight-raises-industry-eyebrows--69674
                          Several industry sources have advised BoxingScene.com of the eye-opening details in relation to Miguel Cotto's upcoming fight being secured by HBO. According to parties with knowledge of the details, the HBO brass approached promoter Lou DiBella with the idea of securing Miguel Cotto for a 2014 showdown with WBC middleweight champion Sergio Martinez. DiBella, who has a good relationship with Cotto's adviser Gaby Penagaricano, was informed that Cotto was likely going to fight on Showtime in October - but the Puerto Rican star hit a roadblock in terms of the money that Showtime was willing to offer up for his next fight.

                                      $10 Million says he has to accept the over. The man has said, he fights for his family. He's not going to take less if he can get more, at this point of his career.

                                      Use your head. My goodness.
