[The Pounder]

WTF? Is sad that Cotto is a undercard for Juanma, lol!!!!

Well unless he is fighting Margarito(Wich he said he wont fight), Collazo or the loser of Berto-Mosley Cotto will be the undercard because, Juanma will be fighting,Gamboa,Vazquez or Marquez!!


I not sure, I was just trhowing that out!!!!

You must be ****ing ******. There is no way in hell that Juanma will EVER main event a card that Cotto is a part of. NEVER in a million years will that happen so forget about your little wet dream because down to the undercard Juanma will go because the man can't draw for ****.

[NormanC]

Cotto is not the undercard, JuanMa is...Cotto has way more fans.

[swizz]

Arum points to June for Cotto's return

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.

Your sig is hilarious.

im a big fan of cotto but i sense a double standard here.

if this was a eruo fighter who was getting this many fights on his home turf he would be labelled as being a 'home turf fighter'.

#1. Cotto can never be compared to a Euro home turf fighter because he actually fights tough competition in Vegas (which is where the Margarito and Pacquiao fights took place.) He doesn't just stay in his "home turf" of NYC.

#2. Right now we're discussing the best strategy for building him back up again. Giving him a winnable fight in front of a large crowd of supporters is just what he needs, even if it is sort of coddling him. But he's coming off a tough loss.

I hope he seriously considers a new trainer. Interview everybody, from Nacho to Emmanuel Steward to the Mayweathers to ****m Richardson to Teddy Atlas to Freddie Roach even. See what each guy thinks Miguel needs to do to improve and pick the one that is most going to mesh with his style.
