Arum confident he can deliver Cotto - Castillo in the fall

Post by Autobarn »

i saw it on the ad for Cotto-Gobshitelianni.

did Arum (looking very worn out) say this after the Castillo weight incident, I'm thinking he must have?

even at 140-lbs, who would be more emaciated?

From what I was reading the deal looked almost done before the fight with Coralles had been called off.

Looks like it was in the works for a while.

Bob " I was lying then but i'm not lying now " Arum would sell his mother for enough $$$$$$$$$$$$$'s. If Castillo goes up to welter as Cotto will they will fight, of that there is no doubt. It would sell very big on the latino TV channells alone.

Miguel already said he's aiming to move up. I don't think he can continue at 140 anymore, too much weight to lose.
