Winner of Canelo-Ortiz makes the most sense for Cotto (Mexican/Puerto Rican rivarly, WBC 154 belt, winner will have exposure from having headlined the Sept 15 PPV, etc...). I doubt we'll see rematches with Floyd or Pac for him. Chavez is too damn big, it wouldn't be too smart of him to move up to MW.
I would love to see Martinez come down to 154 and fight Miguel but that's a pipe dream.
he just visit MSG last week so clearly he is likely considering fighting in NY for his next fight
not sure who that will be though, hopefully it is a good opponent!
I honestly think we'll see Cotto vs. Alvarez/Ortiz winner in December, unless Floyd returns in December against Khan. If that's the case, I think we could see Cotto either take a fight with someone like Bundrage, a good fighter in the top 10 for a title but not a huge threat, and then we could see Alvarez-Kirkland on the Floyd card in December. Either that, or Cotto would just wait until January or Febrary to fight the Alvarez/Ortiz winner on PPV.
Don't know if there is any truth to it but I heard Mayweather offered him a guaranteed of 14 mill for an immediate rematch but Cotto turned it down, I personally don't buy it but...
While I don't believe it really, because I highly doubt Cotto would turn down 14 million to fight Floyd in December, those would be some good fights.
I do think Amir Khan, if Floyd elects to fight in December, will be the opponent. Khan has good wins over Kotelnyk, Malignaggi, Maidana, Judah, and probably Garcia now, and should have a win over Peterson if you ask me, so it's a good fight. It's also a fight that could generate a lot of money, in America and the UK. And Khan may be the only opponent available for December, if Floyd opted to return then. Pacquiao looks to never be happening unless Pac realizes he isn't getting 50-50 and is busy with Marquez, Sergio is busy with Chavez, Alvarez is busy with Ortiz, who else is there to fight???
Mayweather-Khan in December, given Khan looks good in beating Danny Garcia, would be a solid/good fight. I'd rate it a B fight, maybe a B+ if Khan absolutely kills Garcia. It would only be an A if Khan went to 147 for a fight against a Top 10 WW and looked real good. But it's a good fight for Floyd in December, if that's what he really decides to do.
And Yes, if Ray Leonard could go up to 160 and beat Hagler, Floyd has the ability to go to 154 or 160 and beat Sergio Martinez. Hope that fight really happens, maybe it will if Sergio beats Julio down on a big PPV and gets some more fans.
I'd like Lara vs Cotto, there's nothing in it for Miguel really, but I think it'd be a good one to watch.
I think Cotto should stay busy (maybe grab the IBF title) and fight winner of Ortiz/Canelo.
Fantastic,
You are such of lame cry baby. All you do is plaster your hate across any Puertorican boxer thread. Anything with Cotto on it you are there spreading your hate like a AIDS infested prostitute.
Why so much hate towards the PR boxers? Did one banged the crap out your girl? Its jealousy? Its beacuse your dream boy Magarito was proven as a cheat and they only way that he won was due to this cheating habits? Its because Miguel spanked that ass nice and clean.
Nah....I think that you are just plain and simple racist. That is all.
Get off it man, you dont have to spread your sickness all across the forums. It gets boring man.
He's a bonafide piece of trash, what can we do
Just ignore the b@stard.
Don't know if there is any truth to it but I heard Mayweather offered him a guaranteed of 14 mill for an immediate rematch but Cotto turned it down, I personally don't buy it but...
Those are just rumors. Miguel wanted the rematch. He would not turn down 14M.
He (Miguel has been quiet) I wonder what is next!
We don't have his stupid nuthuggers refreshing the Primera Hora website anymore to let you know. Most of them left after he lost to Mayweather.

Word is there trying to stage cotto vs Berto or cotto vs winner of Ortiz vs canelo!
I think Berto should stick with fighting the Freddy Rodriguez's of the world, this dude just doesn't have public appeal anymore after his lost to Ortiz and his continuous spoon fed opponents.
By the way, you can thank Lou Dibella for Berto fighting these Cinderella's.
Looks like I should do some homework on Trout. I don't see him beating Cotto but it's purely out of favoritism
That is an adorable baby by the way :)
Thanks, she's almost 4 now! Tomorrow as a matter of fact. I need to upgrade my photo!!
But on subject, Trout is 1 of the best at 154. I made a tread challenging anyone to show me a fight where someone actually looked good against Rodriquez. Barren landscape. I'll say this, that guy on any given night beats any other top 154 fighter, up to & including Floyd. Which is why he doesn't get the big star fights.
Trout then Canelo sounds ideal
I agree, someone has to fight Trout. After all ginger won't. But trout is no small order. Cotto might fvck around & get whooped.
The Cotto camp said that they wanted another fight by years end. Rumor has it that it might be Canelo. Who know what 154 is going to look like in 6 months
Don't know if there is any truth to it but I heard Mayweather offered him a guaranteed of 14 mill for an immediate rematch but Cotto turned it down, I personally don't buy it but...
I don't see how that's true. I mean who would turn down that kind of payday??
