The promoter Bob Arum will meet with the group of Miguel Cotto to discuss the future of the boxer.
According to executive director said to Primera Hora Top Rank, Cotto plans are to return to the ring in June on the eve of the Puerto Rican Day Parade in New York.
"First, Mickey needs a long period of rest so forget boxing for a while. Then we will sit down to talk about possible opponents, but the idea is that summer is fighting again, "Arum said by telephone.
He also said that the new Yankee Stadium would be ideal, but neither ruled out Madison Square Garden.
"If there is an agreement to make the event at Yankee Stadium, the ideal would be to have Michael with Juan Manuel" Juanma "Lopez on the same card. Both need to fill the place. But if it's at Madison Square Garden, would be Miguel alone, "said Arum.Comment
