Thus, let's not criticize Cotto for taking the so called "tuneup" when he tried his best to get a mega fight.
Come on lets be real here. I didnt know cotto could talk until aout a year and a half ago. So he damn sure wasnt callin out floyd. When flyd was at 140 cotto wouldnt even dare think his name let alone call him out.He nor hatton wanted to fight then and i still dont think he really wants to fight floyd now. IMO hes just sayin this to further his career and if he gets the fight in the process ok he'll take the paycheck. But lets be honest floyd is all about money and if arum really wanted the fight he would just offered floyd 20mil and you, me, cotto and bob all know he would say yes. Its really that simple. I mean he was willin to give 8 for marg, 20 for cotto should be nothing. I wonder why he hasnt made an offer yet. cause he too is just using floyds name to build up cotto. he dont want that cause if he loses what does bob have left. He was willin to sacrifice margo but not cotto.
