  • Top Rank: "Miguel Has Always Wanted to Fight Mayweather"

    For Cotto, it was his biggest win in front of his biggest audience and paved the way for even bigger fights. There's a possible showdown with welterweight titlist Antonio Margarito in the fall if Margarito beats Paul Williams on July 14, and Top Rank would love to match him with pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    "Miguel has always wanted to fight Mayweather," Top Rank president Todd duBoef said. "The Cotto family wants the fight. I think it's doable from our perspective. It depends on what Floyd's expectations are after a big win against Oscar [De La Hoya]."


    Now that Mayweather says he's retired, it's funny how everyone is calling him out. I never before heard Cotto's people call out Mayweather. It's a good fight and I'd love to see it, but doubt it happens. Zab Judah is no Floyd Mayweather...

      Are you blind? Cotto's mentioned Mayweather dozens of times.

        As good as Cotto is, he makes too many mistakes to overcome a Floyd Mayweather. It could be a PBF-Gatti fight all over again.

          Cotto alwasy made it a point to never directly say mayweather's name and give the company line of I will fight whoever they put in front of me.

          On another note I cannot wait to see him fight the margarito -williams winner. should be a great bout!

            Provide links to any article where Cotto calls out Mayweather prior to this weekend...

            Cotto always says talk to his promoter when asked who he wants to fight next. He even said that directly after the Judah fight...

              i have never heard cotto call anybody out, all he ever says when asked about future opponents is;

              " i dont pick fight, my team pick fight, i train then i fight and win "

                  I've never heard Cotto's people call for Floyd. Now Hatton and Cotto want Floyd when he's retiring or taking time off.
