    What the hell does Sergio Marintez have to do with anything?

    The Cotto brigade said that Cotto only fights at the full weight with the Lineage on the line.

    I'm laughing at that.

      HBO didn't have the budget to put on a fight that would make them some good money? Ok......any actual evidence?

            You think HBO makes money on their house fights? What planet are you on? HBO doesn't get commercials, they get a set budget each year based on subscriptions. They make money on PPV, if you know how to pay Cotto and his opponent about 2 million, and make money for it not being on PPV, how much do the tickets and concessions cost and who can afford it.

              Who said Cotto only fights at the full weight? Look at yet ANOTHER person making **** up, WOW. The reason I brought up Sergio is you had a hard on for him and are hating on Cotto. When Cotto, won the title at a higher weight than what he won it at, thus making your hate not only pointless but completely wrong lol.

                Cotto-Canelo would have been PPV.

                  Canelo was set to fight Clottey in December NOT Cotto. Cotto/Canelo was never on the table in December, they wanted that for May even Arum said as much. Canelo picked Clottey, faked an ankle injury and pulled out that's why there was no budget in December. By that time it was too late to make another fight which is why Cotto was targeting early Janurary or Feb which was widely reported. Cotto fought once this year, yes, none of it was from lack of trying. May/Pac was being discussed during this time as well, **** happens. Him not fighting wasn't to "hold" the belt hostage.

                    Go and check the threads before the Martinez fight was signed idiot.

                    And no I have never had a "hard on" for Sergio Martinez. I am not and have never been a fan of his.

                    So that makes you bringing up Martinez for no apparent reason ******.

                      I'm not going to go back and read your posts. No one ever said Cotto fights at the limit, he didn't even for the first fight. No one said Cotto fights at the full MW limit, but you thought it so it must be true right? See how dumb you look making **** up like I did about your Sergio hard on.
