    My hope for Cotto is that he gets one last fight in MSG and one last fight in Puerto Rico, then retire.
    One thing im confident and happy about is Cotto wont hang around too long, Ideally he beats Hatton at 140 at the Garden (or even better the UK!) then a Yuri Foreman or someone to get another belt in PR like u say, The Ricans deserve to see him at home again.

    If he beat Pac i was thinking about getting a Cotto Tatt, might still do it when he retires. Has done been done really well tho coz tatts like that can look nasty!

      Hatton is actually a real option now cause he's coming back at 147.

      I think it would be entertaining.

        I was there at the eve of the PR parade this last summer..and the arena was going NUTS over Cotto-Clottey..

        I'm sure it'll be even crazier in his last performance there..although I highly doubt this will be his last year in boxing..especially if he goes back to winning with Evangelista back in his corner..
        Look forward to it bud

          Cotto aint makin 140 man.

          Plus Hatton's return is gonna be at 147.

          My hope is that there's a fight at Yankee Stadium between Cotto and Hatton at Welterweight. A high profile showcase fight....that's what Cotto needs.

            TS it's just your hate against Arum. As far as cotto/arum relationship if concern, they are all fine. Cotto will never have those great fights without his promoter. HE will never be on the top of his career without his promoter. He even accepted that pacman is the greatest so that has nothing to do with the promoter.


            By the way, your hate will not change the way Arum is. He will be a billionaire as he is. Let him promote whatever he wanted to have. For us fans, its for us to ENJOY if you don't like arum then you have the GBP fighters fair enough. But i can guarantee you that cotto is not ruined. He is one of my favorite fighter. You need to accept that every hero's success, there will always be failure.

            Peace!

                Both guys coming off a Pac loss, both guys like to go forward and are physical guys who throw real mean to the body, its a natural.

                Cotto in under 6 rounds is my pick tho, just a better fighter.

                    I do hate Arum, I'll give you that. Something about the way he treated the Margarito situation pissed me off.
