No. Except if he has 90% of the purse.

Besides, to go back to the question as if Cotto will respect the weight, I would say: it depends of what was written in the contract and about the penalty that goes with it; if it is a ludicrous one, what is the purpose to respect the weight? too much money at stake, the fight will happen indeed and it would give him the chance to shine and to reduce the chances to get injured. If the fine is too high though, I guess that it would be a good reason to respect the weight.... if I would be Bobby Arum, you can make sure that I would negociate something horrible against Mayweather to make sure he'd respect the weight.
