    thats what i was trying to say. i dont think he can gain anything left at this point, his legacy is set already IMO. thats why i said the only fight that would make sense is canelo and anyone after that will just be whatever. i think cotto deserve the right to pick some easy fights. not saying TB is easy but compare to cotto's pass oppponents, tim will be something new for cotto and i think cotto will perform at his best with a guy like tim. i dont see the floyd rematch happening.

      I'd possibly buy the PPV if it had a good undercard.

      Bradley beats Cotto too by the way.

        For one thing this fight wouldn't be at 160, it would be at 154. Cotto was only 155 against Martinez at the weigh in.

        Second, the fight still stinks, Cotto ruins him. I don't see the point.

          I'm leaning more in favor of Bradley, if he boxes. It would be boring though.

            War timmy!
            That said it shouldn't be PPV and no way Rubio sits for a year and let two fighters hop over him....

              Too slick or too black??? Cuz being black is all they have in common.

                    I think it's a good fight. I can understand why it's ppv, given the purse demands of both fighters. Probably exceeds WCB budget.

                    But, I rather watch Cotto/JMM in December. I think it would be more fun and better atmosphere

                      Arum just tryng to cash out on Bradley.. Bradley isn't a big enough draw to justify his purse minimum vs cherrypicks, but Bradley vs any name fighter will do good business..

                      Cotto would destroy Bradley.. Not a good matchup at all for Bradley.. Cotto is too skilled and too powerful, and Bradley will be pinned on the ropes and cotto will rip him
