Rumors: Cotto vs Keith Thurman or Danny Garcia

it would be the first pbc/roc nation fight

cotto might be damage good but skill set, cotto is levels above thurman and any one that thurman has fought so far. this will be the biggest difference. just look at how thurman performs once he steps up in competition. his ko ratio drops dramatically. I agree, and hence, the fight won't happen...even though it'd be huge, with thurman being from clearwater, and the large Puerto Rican population in orlando. But thurman barely beat shawn porter, for goodness sakes...he definitely isn't stopping cotto, and i favor cotto in a 12 round fight. Thurmans good but lets not make him more than he is.

both great fights! would not mind either one :boxing:

How will this mess with that fight , Cotto vs both guys will be at 150- 154 , both guys will still be champion at 147 even after losing to Cotto Thurman has a mandatory anyway and Danny isn't moving up to fight cotto.

Cotto/Thurman is a close fight. Yes Cotto is shopworn but his veteran ways could prove to be too much for the young One Time, at the same time Keith's power and speed could be too much to handle for the old Miguel. Cotto/Garcia is an easy W on paper for Miguel but this is boxing, anyone has a chance...can Garcia's left hook hurt Cotto? It makes sense to stage either fights in Orlando, Miguel's & Danny's homosexual tendencies would make a great drama storyline about the infamous clu shootong and stuff.

Both would be dumb fights I don't want anything messing up a Garcia-Thurman fight for next year. How will this mess with that fight , Cotto vs both guys will be at 150- 154 , both guys will still be champion at 147 even after losing to Cotto

Nah, Rios/Cotto

I'd prefer the 147 titlists fought each other. I'm not mad at the thought of Cotto/Thurman though.

That's dumb on rios part. Should have taken the cotto fight. He has literally 0 chance to go past 3 rounds with Cotto

Thurman can't take it to the body, Cotto KO's him true, very true

Both fights are good! Props to cotto for not taking a softy

Thurman fight would be cool...Garcia fight would be a fvcking joke

hearing brandon rios, lol! Reports are saying Rios has turndown the fght because he looking to stay at 147 Loaded #boxing notebook in my blog! Cotto vs. Rios in December? TV home for Commey-Easter, next for Guzman, more: https://t.co/8OfHWaSjNN— Dan Rafael (@danrafaelespn) July 22, 2016

Interesting read. This source claims that King Cotto's Team has contacted Keith Thurman's team in an attempt to fight at 150lb. They also mention that Danny Garcia may be in the running as well. Lastly, they mention that its likely (85%) that the fight will take place in Orlando on Dec 3rd since NY has some new tax laws that does not make it financially sound to make boxing events there (sad). Ill love either fight! Make it happen! #WarCotto Source: http://www.mrboxingpr.com/noticias/keith-thurman-y-danny-garcia-en-la-mira-de-miguel-cotto Interesting fights.

Can't imagine Garcia agrees to fight Cotto. Cotto would beat his ass. I'd love to see Cotto/Thurman.

I will bet all my points plus some money on cotto for eirher fight, no welter beats cotto today and that includes brook and pac...

Good on Cotto if he dares fight a young undefeated power punching hungry lion. Wouldn't mind him facing Danny either.

Thurman Vs Cotto would be good. I don't see Gracia being down for fighting Cotto.

thurman would stop a shopworn miguel at this point in time. Too many miles on the clock, dont really think much of him since the pacquiao fight to be honest, one win against a man with one functioning knee and lost to austin 'no doubt' trout. Wouldnt be shocked if garcia beat him too. Nah I don't see it. Canelo couldn't even stop Cotto and he's much bigger than Thurman and a bigger puncher at 154/155. Cotto has only been stopped by an ATG and extreme Margarito pressure, he would be a clear favourite over Thurman and rightly so.
