I didn't even read the article, but Im guessing the "EXCUSE" is that Cotto isn't the highest payday out there for him. Well until they accept the hardcore boxing fan's approval as down payement on a new Bentley, It's not an excuse at all, and this entire thread is pointless and stupid. Ive said many times that I would far rather see Floyd fight Cotto than Oscar again or anyone else, and I don't know any real boxing fan who thinks differently. The problem is I'm not stupid and delluded enough to actually expect a fighter to accept far less money for an equal or greater risk, just because it will make me happy. Especially when I realize that therre are still far more people willing to shell out THEIR money to see Floyd fight Oscar than Cotto. It's just beyond pathetic that people still need clarification as to why this fight isn't happening yet.
