He was probably talking about Rios or Bradley as being crumbs, he's not getting anywhere near 10 million facing those guys. As Natas said it wasn't anything malicious on anyone's side just a lack of communication. Canelo ran off... didn't work out for Cotto. May went with Manny... didn't work out for Cotto. Cotto gets a killer deal not just for boxing, but his brand... didn't work out for Top Rank.
I'm sure they are just scared because Manny can't draw **** anymore and when Floyd walks through them they don't even have Cotto anymore. Their biggest draw is either Marquez or Bradley and neither one of them is anywhere the draw Manny or even Cotto is.Comment

The 10.5 mil is a one time payment. Cotto is looking to build his brand and promotional company for long and successful future Like. Obviously TR wasn't offering that or he wasn't satisfied with their offers.Comment

You cant blame cotto for doing what's best for him and his family. He obviously had to be getting a much larger guarantee and split of the profits with cotto promotions than top rank was giving him. If they threw 40 million dollars at Adrien broker which was 10 fights, I'm sure they're guaranteeing cotto a ridiculous number. They are willing to lose money to make a name in the industry. If top ranked offered 10.5 to fight canelo, I bet roc nation is guaranteeing him that much to fight bums. Todd lebouf has a point about handling business like a man though. You should at least puck up a phone or send a text especially if they are friends and have handled cottos career pike top rank has. Top rank has made him the 3rd most recognizable boxer in the world and also the 3rd highest paid. They have gotten him all the biggest fights and have some good options for him. Tim Bradley would be a great fight, I personally think he would beat cotto. Either way him and his manager should have the courtesy to say listen in doing what's best for my family and going with roc nation they made an offer I couldn't refuseComment

Aah ok, interesting.
The very first rule in business is.....
* never do business with somebody that you cant trust
That is why Schaeffer has been unable to work with Arum since 2010.Comment
