Comments Thread For: Cotto To Roc Nation, Conduct Disappoints Top Rank Prez

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

As Miguel Cotto reunited with Top Rank before his bout versus Delvin Rodriguez in October of 2013, he had pledged his loyalty to Todd duBoef( the president of Top Rank) with whom he had enjoyed a close, personal relationship with. Top Rank had promoted the Puerto Rican to stardom after signing him out of the 2000 Olympics.

After a winless 2012 where he faced Floyd Mayweather and Austin Trout outside the Top Rank banner, he returned to them and notched victories over Rodriguez and then became the middleweight champion of the world with a knockout of Sergio Martinez last June. It was expected that a bout with Mexican star, Saul Alvarez would be next this spring.

They must have given Cotto some kind of crazy guranteed per fight for him to give up his freedom.

what else did top rank expect with them offering rios & bradley?

[Beater_of_ass]

Wow, something went very badly... I can't say I blame Cotto though, RocNation was throwing around some crazy numbers on nobodies, they probably overpaid Cotto by offering Mayweather Showtime money.

That being said... my favorite fighter has fallen to the powers of boxing politics. It happens to the best of them and I'm greatly disappointed.

Now Cotto is about to duck GGG even more.
