This isn't about Cotto, but if you're gonna say that notice that Cotto has fought outside of "his comfort zone" when he fought Margarito in Las Vegas, and will fight Manny Pacquiao in Las Vegas, if it's anyone not fighting out of his confort zone it's Manny Pacquiao since almost all his fights have been in the west coast (Las Vegas and California), Texas and the Phillipines, your argument about that being the cause of his global attraction fails.
The Margarito fight is the only one time Cotto has fought a high-profile fight out west though.

But the point is that he did go over there to fight Margo. The reason why some of his big fights are at MSG is a business decision; he will sell that place out and it will be a bigger event if tied to the PR parade.
Lets not start to hate on Cotto, he is a true champion that takes on the toughest opponents, defeats them, and maintains his professionalism as a boxer. What Juanma is doing right now is not how Cotto has built his career.. true boxing fans know that.
Take the fight Juanma, Cab will pay the fees, come to PR and if he loses, give you his share, so what the f*** are you waiting for? Give the boxing fans what they want.
You guys need to understand that the fight will happen on Oct 10th at MSG, NYC. This is a publicity stunt to gather interest in the latino community to fill up the MSG. Gamboa will fight in the undercard, maybe against Luveano. That will make an argument to sell out the MSG.
Caballero has not fight in the US during his last 5 fights. Only hardcore fans know the poor bastard. Caballero can't fill up a place anywhere in the US, maybe a highschool basketball gym.
Just wait and see that I am right. And when the fight gets announce, I am going ALL IN against any takers. JuanMa will take both belts and then move up in weight. Fight Gamboa sometime in 2010 unless Izzy and Marquez decide to fight JuanMa before retiring...
EAAAA Mafu Mofo what u smoking bro! that you can see the future... You sound very confident in this....but it sounds like a solid plan.... hmmmm
It makes a lot of sense... but juanma is gettting his ass kicked in the ring of public opinion... just reading your post me me reconsider what i was going to post......october....
I'll bet that Gamboa could go on to lose his very next fight and Arum would still make a Lopez-Gamboa match up. That's how greedy Arum is. That fight isn't going to sell any better than a fight with Lopez and Caballero unless I'm really missing something. And I got my stuff straight about who the WBA 126 lb full champ is. It's Chris John. Eli Rojas is the WBC champ. And I guess that is who Arum is trying to match Gamboa up with. Am I right about that? Someone fill me in.
juanma is really looking bad right,now this fight is not only one that fans want,but it makes sense,aside marquez and vazquez ,caballero is the next for a shot,juanma needs to come with it,cuz caballero brings lopez a legit claim to deserving a shot at vazquez or marquez,1 mil is bull crap,won't even get that with marquez or vazquez

I hope you are right and I'm starting to believe the same thing. As soon as Arum comes back from his vacation we'll see. I see no way that Juanma can avoid Celestino. The funny thing is that Celestino has absolutely no chance with Juanma. Actually, he does have a puncher's chance but thats it. Juanma TKO in round 8 is my bet. And we'll see what the haters will say after that.
