[GMAN SUPREME]

Dude, we have 2 HUGE fughts at our doorstep and Bob can possibly kill both, one stone..he can be co-promoter for 2 of the biggest ppv events of 2015, & i that just might be it; he wantsto be lead promoter. I believe the man has sour g****s over floyd and oscar putting on both of the biggest PPV events in history after they left his crooked @$$..bob will continue to freeze himself out while sleeping in the bed he made.

shut up you idiot we all know its gayweather jr that wants to kill a fight with Pacquiao you trying to blame arum for gayweather jr being scared to fight manny lol.canelo vs cotto will happen I have no doubt about it unless cotto goes for the rematch instead.if these fights don't happen its not arum's fault.

They don't want pay Cotto right money? **** Canelo fight Maywather

yo ret@rd what makes you think he will get more money fighting duckweather cotto knows his place he will make less money and be the b side and have to agree to all of duckweather demands.cotto will look real ****** when he's the b side getting ****d after talking about how he's always the a side lol.

Canela desperate. He NEEDS this fight, Cotto doesn't. I heard rumors than during negotiations he got on his knees in front of Cotto's people, don't know how true it is but don't doubt it one bit. Cotto gains NOTHING out of this except money which he can find elsewhere. I do want to see Cotto beat Canelo down, Cotto will DESTROY this boy. I'm talking 4 KDs before stopping him.

if cotto were smart he would end his career taking the least risk or just retire on a high note. Canelo isn't delvin Rodriguez or a crippled Sergio Martinez. Canelo beats Cotto, Golovkin puts him in the hospital.

Only in this era of boxing could it be accepted for a B level fighter like Cotto be able to pull rank. His behaviour during the Martinez build up was even more cringe-inducing than his delusional fans that refer to him as "King" in a non-ironic manner.

I think we know whats goin on. May v Cotto II. its the only way May can duck Pac again and not get completely destroyed by the media. If May fought and beat Pac, Id love to see May v Cotto II, but fight THE FIGHT first, then a rematch with a guy you beat convincingly the 1st time

how can you call Cotto b level. hes just not an all-time great like Pac, Mayweather, Roy Jones or Pernell Whitaker. Hes on the next level wiht HOF fighters ike de la hoya and Shane Mosely.
The guy has won title is 4 weight classes and fought EVERYONE in the past 10-15 yrs (May, Pac, Mosely, Margarito 2x, Martinez, Judah, Malgnaggi, Trout, Clottey, Quintana, etc.)
to call Cotto a b level fighter is just not right

although normlly I m never in favor, as a fan, of low risk fights ( we as fans want high risk fights), I agree fighting GGG would be a lot to bite off at this stage in his career. Cotto v Canelo I think is a good fight though. Canelo is a very good fighter, but even his 2 best wins - Trout and Lara, were VERY close. were not talkin about a kiler like GGG here

Only in this era of boxing could it be accepted for fans to use terms like B level fighter, PPV buys, A side, guarantee purse, etc. When fans talk about fight build ups and negotiations more than the fights itself there's something missing from the sport.

For those who say canelo beats cotto let me remind you that cotto is not josesito lopez, lara or shane mosley. Ask canelo why he doesnt want to fight cotto at 160 and boys canelo is already crippled he have an ankle injury thats why he cancels clottey bout

[tokon]

Cotto is in the driving seat in these negotiations imo
