How can anyone justify Cotto fighting for a title after back to back L's? I dont like the fight, but it is better than him fighting for another title when he havent earn it. BTW, for all we know and his history with WBO, he might even get a shot at that belt and will be criticize for it as well.
I have doubts this is true. I was pretty sure Cotto would be fighting Canelo. What does a fight with Bundrage do for Cotto? Bundrage has no title, he just lost and he is not a big money fight. If this fight happens I think Cotto would win easily.
You can't fight Cotto coming off of two losses. The fight would be bigger if he gets a win or two.
Why would Canelo/Cotto be acceptable now when it wasn't in May? Canelo beating Trout doesn't make this a good fight all of the sudden.
He's not fighting K9. Smh idk who but it can't a guy like K9. Maybe Ortiz. Or even Kirkland.
Kirkland is tied up in litigation and Ortiz is coming back from a broken jaw and inactivity.
Those fights aren't happening.

This fight makes no sense. Unless this fight has a good undercard I will skip going to the Barclay's. More than likely Cotto's free agency status he will turn a profit on it
i hope it happens and he wins by KO.seeing as is a tune up fight for cotto to face the smith/molina winner ,canelo or sergio either way hes gettin a title shot if he wins thats forsure, i hope he pulls it off!!
According to boxingrec. We'll see.
This fight is about a year too late... Cotto should have fought K9 for the IBF over Trout. As it is he should go after Ishe Smith, but this is an okay comeback fight for him regardless... it's just too long a wait for a crap (on paper) fight though.
I feel u bro I wanna see him b4 he retires too. I missed my chance with my all time fav trinidad dnt wanna miss it with Cotto
Hopefully he wins it too. I don't know how I would've felt had I gone to Cotto-Margarito I.
Yeah man I never seen a Cotto fight in person n got money to go for 1 event n garcia vs matthysse or one of my favorite ever cotto n was hoping he was fighting a better opponent but im not payibg a couple hundred for a k9 fight
I have to see Cotto fight live before he retires, I've never seen him either. I hope he makes one last trip to Vegas for a mega fight :boxing:
Why? K9 had a belt for like ages and was trying to sell his title to the highest bidder but no offers expect for Ishe smith, this would have made sense when he had his belt.
