Top Rank’s Bob Arum will not rule out any of the top names for Miguel Cotto’s planned ring return on June 13. Cotto was originally going to face Antonio Margarito in a rematch, but those plans were scrapped when the California State Athletic Commission revoked Margarito’s license to box on Tuesday, making him unavailable for at least a year. Margarito had his license revoked after the commission ruled that his hand wraps contained a foreign substance. The substance was discovered in Margarito’s hand wraps about thirty-minutes before he entered the ring to fight Shane Mosley on January 24. [details]

Clottey-Mosley, Berto-Cotto in june winners meet in late fall!!!!!!!!!!1 -
I personally don't think Berto is ready for Cotto, but I mean if he's willing to step in, then God bless him. Although I would like to see Mosley-Cotto 2 first, being that Shane isn't getting any younger.Comment

he got tired againest Collazo. Cotto's been in there with the likes of better opposition, I don't see how you can base he has better stamina based on the fighters he fought in his career so far. Collazo ate those uppercuts.Comment

Isn't it time to declare the best Welterweight out there once and for all? I feel that P-Will is not relevant at 147 and should stay at 154 and 160 where IMO he is the most effective.Comment

I think Berto is as ready as he's ever going to be. He's in his proper weight class, he's faced each kind of test. This would be an awesome fight too. Both guys could get hurt by the other. Both guys are about the same size. Both are gritty and tough enough to overcome early adversity. It could be better than Berto/Collazo and Margarito/Cotto.Comment
