Originally posted by KnickTillDeaTh View PostCotto didn't get less money that fight was a 50-50 split, I already explained the Catch weight in an earlier post but ill explain it again. Arum wanted the fight to happen badly, so the WBC made pac Cottos mandatory, so if Cotto didn't fight PAC he would be stripped of the belt. And the WBC would have PAC fight some one else for the vacant title. PAC would not fight Cotto over 145 lbs, so Cotto had no choice but to fight or vacate the belt. Just because he agreed to a catch weight doesn't mean he was the B-side, remember Mayweather agreed to a catch weight against Marquez. I guess it would be more accurate to say at the time of their fight they were both considered A-side fighters (Cotto-PAC)

Originally posted by chepboxingking View PostHe's not the champion yet you will give him anything he asks. Nature of boxing Sergio. Cotto is a bigger star then you are so he picks and chooses what goes. Same way he got the fight to be in NY. And please stop saying you're stopping him in 5 rounds. You've never stopped anyone in 5 rounds.

Sergio is so butthurt that Cotto is raping him on his money and there's nothing he can do about it, apparently that's how bad he wants this fight because he hasn't walked away from the negotiations yet. Sergio must of forgot he's dealing with the #3 draw in boxing. But they both need to sign and get it on

I wonder why Sergio said Cotto does not respect boxing history. I am starting to feel that Sergio might not give to Cottos demands and the fight will not pan out. Cotto needs to stop being a diva if that is truly the case.

You do realize Martinez has a 10 Inch advantage in reach *not to mention the jab is one of Martinez best attributes, and has being fighting taller and stronger fighters for the past 4 years, he backed up a 180 185 pounder in Chaves. Not only the reach benefits martinez but the style of cotto is made for martinez.. Only way cotto wins is if age has gotten to martinez.

Originally posted by Respect Power View PostYou bring up some thoughtful points as far as "Sergio being overwhelmed at this point" have u taken into account his age, he hasn't made much money yet considering what he's done,This is his biggest and could be his last big payday ,and he is champion . This whole fight is about cotto going for another title in another division. That's a big draw of it .

he already said it must be at Madison square garden
he could also be asking to enter the ring second and also that he be introduced last!!
cotto is "allegedly" asking for the champions treatment!!!
cuz there are only a few things you can ask for. #1 being the money!!
