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.

i keep hearing and seeing references to cotto-castillo. they won't seem to go away. i'd lie to see this. cotto needs a big name foe to give him real credence

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

how about hatton-cotto at 147, since ricky was already there for last bout & cotto NEEDS to move there?
