Cotto's Welterweight Belt not at stake in Pacquiao bout


Miguel Cotto's WBO belt is not on the line against Manny Pacquiao according to Top Rank's Bob Arum. Cotto will face Pacquiao at a catch weight of 145 lbs on Nov. 14 and can put his 147 title at stake if he wants to. But the champion from Puerto Rico is not thinking about it. "He doesn't want to pay the sanction fee ($400,000- if it is a title fight), so, no, Cotto will not stake his Welterweight crown against Pacquiao" said Arum.
