Just more boxing politics as usual. It is a shame every boxer couldn't promote and manage himself. If we cut out these promoters, etc, all the fights we've ever wanted to see would happen. Not that I'm suggesting Manny vs. Cotto will not happen, it just gets frustrating waiting for a bout to get signed, officially. There are too many damn politics in the sport of boxing.

Miguel Cotto vs. Manny Pacquiao One Step Closer To Being A Done Deal

According to Bob Arum, Top Rank's boxing promoter, Miguel Cotto vs. Manny Pacquiao is one step closer to being a done deal. Arum recently said, "everything is fine."

Right now the proposed date for the bout between Miguel Cotto vs. Manny Pacquiao, is November 14 in Las Vegas.

Take Bob Arum's "everything is fine" comment whatever way you want, but it's nice to hear a little reassurance, considering all the bouts that have been canceled within the last year.
