Cotto is a ppv star by himself. With mayweather they may sell 2 million ppvs. Would make the most sense as far as business goes.Still think cotto would get outclassed.Comment -
what a f\*g, beat up a womanComment -
After the NFL playoffs, Floyd will HAVE to fight. The dude will probably be broke by then. His future is written in stone: broke, fight, jail, fight(lose), release porn tape.Comment -
I agree I think it's highly like floyd stops cotto if he wants it to happen. We know sometimes he takes the fight 12 rounds to get work in/stay sharp. Cotto is known to swell/bruise quickly on his face from punches. Guys eyes wouldn't hold up 7 rounds he would look like gatti.

I think floyd is reckless with his spending but after seeing what tyson/holyfield did with their money. (Going through a combined 600 million approx) I doubt he will be broke anytime soon.Comment -
Arum is a chicken $hit pussy who won't let Pacfraud get his ass handed to him by Floyd.Comment -
mike tyson never control his money.....don king control tyson money...that why iron mike sued himComment -
lil kim is his woman right now and ray j is in his posseComment -
Just saw this:
There've been no recent discussions to stage a blockbuster fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao, according to Pacquiao's promoter, but a Nevada judge Friday allowed the unbeaten Mayweather to delay his scheduled 90-day jail sentence that was to begin this week so he can have what his advisor calls a "mega-fight."
"It seems to me to be bizarre, but who am I to say?" Pacquiao promoter Bob Arum said Friday after Clark County Justice of the Peace Melissa Saragosa ruled that Mayweather could delay serving his sentence for domestic violence misdemeanors until June 1.
Mayweather's attorney, Richard Wright, argued in court that Mayweather has reserved May 5 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas for a major fight.
Saragosa said in court: "Mr. Mayweather has an obligation to this court. Given the fact that Mr. Mayweather has these obligations, I am going to grant your request."
Following the judge's ruling, Mayweather advisor Leonard Ellerbe issued a statement: "We are pleased that the judge granted postponement of Floyd's surrender date so that he can fulfill his commitment to Las Vegas to deliver his promised mega-fight and the economic benefits it provides to the community."
Asked if there was any doubt that "mega-fight" means Manny Pacquiao, Ellerbe said, "We'll make an announcement about who we're going to fight next week. We just came out of the ... court hearing. Give us a chance to catch our breath."
Representatives for what most people believe to be the world's top two fighters have tried and failed three times to stage a fight over the last two years, with drug testing, old business rivalries and promotional disagreements sabotaging each attempt.
Arum is boarding a flight to the Philippines to meet with Pacquiao on Sunday to discuss the Filipino congressman's next bout.
Earlier this week, Arum said he wasn't planning on Mayweather being available for a late-spring bout, and was going to discuss possible fights against Timothy Bradley, Juan Manuel Marquez, Lamont Peterson or Miguel Cotto with Pacquiao.
Now the discussion has changed.
"May 5 is out for us, it can't happen, because we want to explore the idea of getting a [temporary] stadium/arena up on the streets of Las Vegas that can seat 40,000," Arum said. "The end of May is a possibility."
Arum said he's intent to explore the idea of the larger outdoor venue because "having the fight in a 40,000-seat arena rather than a 16,000-seat arena seems like a no-brainer."
Additionally, Arum said Pacquiao is still healing from a deep cut over one of his eyes that he sustained in the Marquez fight.
"I don't know that he's on schedule to start sparring until the beginning of April," Arum said. "That's one of the things we'll discuss. If it is early April, we'll have to have the fight in late May."
Asked if he was cynical about Mayweather's interest in truly wanting to fight Pacquiao, Arum said, "I have no idea."
Asked if Pacquiao wants Mayweather, Arum said, "Yeah."
If the fight every boxing fans wants to see can't materialize, Mayweather might opt to fight someone like Robert Guerrero, a top junior-welterweight contender from Gilroy.
"I know people want to see Pacquiao, but if that fight can't happen, I'm going to shock the world and beat Floyd Mayweather," Guerrero said.Comment -
WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweathr Jr. caught a lucky break earlier today when his 90 day jail term was successfully delayed by his attorneys until June 1st instead of starting today. This will enable Mayeather to fight on May 5th as he had been hoping to.
However, Bob Arum, the Top Rank promoter of WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao, didn’t show much enthusiasm for making a fight with Mayweather and his No.1 money maker Pacquiao in May. After learning the news about Mayweather receiving a delayed jail term, Arum told Mlive.com “I don’t think it has any impact. No impact at all. Manny isn’t going to be ready to fight until summertime.”Comment -
Yet he told the press a short while ago that may 5th may be in play if its with marquez for pacquiao. (Before floyd had his term delayed)
What a fuking joke this guy is
Also love how roach/ariza/arum not commenting on the marquez/pacquiao 3 fight at all in interviews like they have in the past when manny was sucessful. They are hoping people forget about the robbery with time.Comment -
beating up women and threatening children,,,
what a pussy he isComment -
gonna be canelo or robert guerrero for floydComment -
Guess is CaneloComment -
i just dont know if bob wants to do business with floyd....why would he make floyd/cotto when he could just make cotto/pac 2 at 150....
id love to see it....but it would be the same old story....guys who have wanted to see it and say they want to see it...then they get it and floyd outclasses him and theyll say floyd waited so long for cotto instead of fighting him during his physical/mental peakComment -
Cotto is not contracted by top rank at this moment afaik.Comment -
"The only thing I want to let you know is that Bob Arum was, is and always will be my promoter. No matter what direction I decide to take my career, he will remain. He is the person who made me who I am," Cotto said.
this was made after margs fight.....when he had no contract with top rank...take it for what its worthComment -
I could see pbf fighting cotto , but as a fight fan , I would be very disappointed. Much like gatti , cotto walks into the ring with a black eye and fat lip. I can't see any way cotto last more 8-9 rds with pbf. Obviously like the rest of world I want pbf vs pac , I've always thought pbf could beat him. Is love for him to shut all those fanboys up. If not is also really like to see.him battle khan or S.A. Both imho would be great fights. I actually think khan has as good a shot to beat pbf as any.Comment -
khan has some of the most amazing gifts of anyone in recent memory....problem is he doesnt have it between the ears....the cerebral ability to be great.....if zab had "it" between the ears hed be floyd......but hes zab for a reason
khan cant really transition himself smoothly into the flow of a fight if someone can bring it to him....he kind of switches on and off from being an offensive fighter and a defensive fighter at times.....he cant transition smoothly back and forth.....the guy doesnt know how to fight inside well either....he just covers up with ear muffs and eats too many power shots and tries to push offComment -
I think canelo fight is a lot more dangerous than cotto. The question is though how good is canelo? He's only been fighting dishwashers.Comment -
What a hamburger
