Are you referencing the fact that judges are usually biased towards one party and that they would pick Oscar for political reasons? Because if you are talking about the actual fight or their skill levels at the time Mayweather both clearly won the fight and was a favorite to do so imho.

BOOM!!!!

Frampton is not half bad.

floyd vs. cotto

For the love of Christ

Cotto gets maybe one round if he's lucky.

Cotto is not getting stopped by Mayweather, thats for sure. He'll most likely lose though.

It's better than Canelo fight. I lost a lot of interest in that one once i realized his best win is probably Matthew Hatton and Ryan Rhodes. I'm happy he gets to build more before getting thrown away to the wolves.

Now i just hope Pac picks Bradley and not Marquez or Peterson. I actually think Bradley will put up a good fight. Especially if Pac gets dem legcrampz.

I agree I think, but if the odds are right I might bet a knockout or TKO.

That said I would be so stoked if Cotto some how wins, for such a great fighter to have his career set back by a cheater is such a shame, he really deserves the pay day and spotlight, can't wait for 24/7.

yeah i will cheer like crazy for Cotto. My favorite active fighter to root for.

yeah, gfy Arum. Im losing interest in this fight. Will obviously watch when it happens but its so dumb 1 pos has taken away from us the opportunity to watch this GOAT fight

Agreed arum can go **** himself

word. I'm on the hate train too. **** that guy.

floyd vs. cotto is going to be at 154lbs.

Thats a good thing. Maybe thats what sealed the deal; Pac refused to fight above 147 against Cotto.

Pac versus Bradley, imo.

I am glad Pac didn't agree to fight at 150 pounds vs. Cotto because I don't want to see that fight anyways. Much rather see him fight Tim Bradley, but he might choose JMM again (boo).

Floyd vs. Cotto is a more competitive fight than Floyd vs. Canelo. Canelo would have gotten schooled. However, I expect Floyd beat Cotto pretty easily.

cotto pac 2 would've been a complete ****ing joke. One of the biggest jokes in all of boxing history.

Pac bradley is legit.

Can somebody explain to me why Manny doesn't just say he's not fighting anybody until he fights Floyd?

If true, then wow ......

Koncz said last week, with the approval of Arum and Pacquiao, he offered Mayweather a guaranteed $50 million to fight Pacquiao in May with the revenue to be divided 55-45 with the lion's share going to the winner of the fight. Mayweather has said he demanded the lion's share of the money.

"I've been talking to Floyd directly and I made a commitment to keep it out of the media, but with him saying all the things that he's been saying -- that Manny ducked the fight, that Manny is only a $10 million fighter, I am compelled to talk to the media and say what really happened," he said. "We had our deal with Arum. Both fighters were going to be guaranteed $50 million. Arum had agreed to that. The other thing was when Manny instructed me to reach out to Floyd, I informed Floyd at that time (about two months ago) that there were no more issues with blood testing. Manny agreed to everything, whenever anyone wanted, except on the day of the fight. Floyd said, 'Ok, that's great.' My discussions with Floyd were cordial, professional and during our discussions we both treated each other with the utmost respect. We didn't agree on a lot of things, but we were respectful. He has my number and he can call me any time and hopefully we can do this fight in November."

****ing boxing is such an unreal, corrupt crock of **** and should be put down

lion's share to the winner should be the norm in every fight imo, too bad it's impossible though and so many boxers are willing to sell themselves short to get in with pac or floyd

also I wish any combination of Canelo, Cotto, and Sergio Martinez would fight soon

RIP Angelo Dundee, it seems boxing people are dropping dead all the time recently.

Another legend of the game. I've always been slightly dubious about him though as he was well known for letting Ali take on tough sparring (as he believed it made him tougher in actual fights if sparring partners were encouraged to search for his chin) and was still involved when Ali was fighting on despite already slurring his speach and being a million miles over the hill.

Maybe I'm being unfair though, not sure.

maybe the hate on Arum is not justified

http://www.boxingscene.com/team-pacq...y-cotto--49159 (good read, talks cotto too)

if you agree on a potential $200m fight, then floyd is "offering" $40m to pac while keeping $160m for himself. great negotiation. who is ducking who?

Yeah, Floyd had almost convinced me that he actually wanted the fight until he refused the 50/50. And it's only going to get worse, the Mayweather vs Cotto PPV, which will possibly have Canelo on the undercard against Mosley, is going to easily sell more than Pacquiao vs Bradley. Which will make it even less likely Floyd will accept 50/50.

Anyone know how much Floyd is guaranteed for this Cotto fight?

Hey guys, how did Johnny Tapia's career end? Obviously the guy was a mess but he had a lot of heart and was fun to watch, I always rooted for him partly because of all the demons he was fighting.

From his wikipedia entry

Holy ****.
