Meh, Cotto shouldn't demand anything. Just be the better boxer than Joshua Clottey that he is and he'll win his match. He doesn't need a percieved advantage to beat Clottey. I think Cotto could care less. This is more Arum than anything to ensure his boxer remains a profitable entity at least one more fight under his banner.

So the fact that there is no representation for Cotto, even if it wasn't "Rican" but at least Latino......is a "BIG" issue...specially when we all know Cotto will be looking to "out box" Clottey.....UD.... This will defiantly change come fight night....Bob Arum has his ways!

I guess I don't have too much fuss about the ref in this fight. I don't view Eddie Cotton as the best ref out there but I want one that's never reffed any of Cotto's bouts unlike Benji Esteves did in the Mosley-Cotto fight. I thought Miguel caught a big break in the 10th round when he wiped a wet spot on the canvass when Cotto had just got rocked with a right hand. That's history though and the thing that looks shady in this fight like everyone is saying is the judges being chosen. Now we know why Shane Mosley refused to fight a rematch with Cotto at MSG.

The real reason is Mosely wants the lion share of any fight from this point forward.
*** him, Cotto already beat and he'll beat him again!!!
