      I think a lot of this has to do with Arum getting revenge on Cotto. Every time Roc Nation brought up the name of a decent opponent for Cotto, you'd immediately get a reaction from Arum in the press saying his fighter wanted that match, or that it couldn't be done, since he's so-and-so's promoter. Arum's even going around repeatedly telling Marquez that it makes no sense to fight Cotto and to fight Vargas instead, even though Marquez has told Arum through the press various times that it's only Cotto he's interested in.

      It's a lame move, in my opinion. So what? You stopped Cotto from having a fight in June, big whoop. The only victory Arum can claim from this is leaving the time slot and locations open for a Verdejo Puerto Rican day parade fight. That's about it.

              gftoh with that nonsense; how much money do you honestly think that Team Cotto was asking for to fight Gabriel Rosado (two Puerto Ricans, fighting in Brooklyn, NYC vs Philly, and other caveats would make for a decent enough event)?

              Miguel Cotto fought Delvin Rodriguez for $2m (the full slate of televised fights likely ended up costing $2.5m to put on), and Cotto-Geale was on regular HBO, with Dan Rafael stating that Cotto made $15m on the fight (how he came to that number is beyond me).

              Ward-Barrera (the full fight card) was put on with the televised fight card splitting up $2.4m; to argue as if putting up $2.5m to finance a Cotto-Rosado fight card is some unfathomable amount of money makes you look silly (especially when HBO could use that invested money to set up a Cotto-Marquez, Mexico vs PR, PPV for the Fall).

                  Smart decision to have a mini-camp in the meantime.
