I know Oscar was a good fighter, but let it go down in his hall of fmae record, Oscar was and is a greedy money hungry bully.

Well first off, EVERY fighter is in it for the money, at least primarily.. You seem to caught up in the idea that to box is for the glory, and not to make a living. It's very pretentious imo. But secondly, if Oscar was in it ONLY for the money, he wouldn't fight at all. That should be painfully obvious, he is nearing billionaire status and has no financial worries in sight, he can rely on his promotional company doing well for a long time. Any payday he makes is insignifigant to his total earnings at this point. Having said that, he, like any world class boxer, is still looking for the highest possible earnings in a fight. If he want's Cotto, then good for him, it takes two to make a fight and it shows he is still hungry if you ask me.
