I've just read on another Forum (Ricky Hatton web site Forum) that Branco has pulled out, can anyone confirm this ???
If true i wonder who will step in & i wonder what the WBC will do in their rankings now (if true) Branco is not fighting Cotto ???

Branco and his fellow Italians have a habit of pulling out of fights.

If this is true Branco should retire the gutless bastard. He pulls out of more fights than Calzaghe.

True enough Branco is getting a reputation for pulling out of fights, i didn't think he was a worthy challenger for Cotto anyway but no doubt the replacement will be worse.

WTF is that twat Branco still doing at the top of the WBC ratings? You'd have thought that the fact that he was pencilled in for a WBO challenge would finally make the WBC see sense and get him the fornicate out of there. Seriously? What has the guy done in his career, apart from fucked people around?
