Should Cotto have fought a better opponent to prepare for Tony?

I think Arum was playing the whole Mexico vs Puerto Rico angle.
Alfonso was chosen simply because he was Mexican. I agree that a much better opponent would have given Cotto better preparation, but might have also been a risk were he to get hurt or injured.Comment

Sour g****s!!Should Cotto have even given this ducker Margarito a shot. He lost to Paul and then had tuneups against Golden Johnson and Kermit Cintron. Cotto should have fought Clottey. Clot did more since his last loss. **** Margarito and his ducking. Cotto doesnt duck any mother ****er in the game.Comment

You can also look at it this way. The majority of the boxing world thought Cotto was going to beat Margarito.
So Margarito was just going to be Cotto's tought preparation for an Oscar De La Hoya fight. Remember Cotto wasn't supposed to lose this fight.Comment

gomez was a garbage fight. it did nothing for cotto in preparation for margarito. cotto should've fought baldomir in preparation for margarito. baldomir is a lighter hitting version of margarito.Comment
