Comments Thread For: Miguel Cotto's Trainer Like The Idea of Fighting Chavez Jr.

[Gabilan]

Would seem the majority of Cotto fans just wanna see Cotto destroy Chavez.

Doesn't sound like legitimacy.

They"re aware hes one fight removed from a horrific beatdown.

This is a somewhat safe and fun style match-up.

With any fighter as a fan I allow them to fight a couple of safe fights after a beatdown.

Nothing wrong with this fight.

He'll have to step it up after this though.

Perhaps Angulo or Martinez.

Thank God, a voice of reason. It is somewhat safe but who knows maybe Jr. steps up. I don't think he will but maybe. It would be a fun fight for however long it lasts and it will have a terrific buildup with two great fan bases going at it and an electric fight night atmosphere.

From Jr. perspective he is going against one of the biggest names in boxing who he might believe is shot.

From Cotto's he is going against a recognized name, albeit a product of his father and mediocre matchmaking (so far so everybody chill out), he gets the opportunity to take another 0, make a good payday, and gets the chance to keep working on his technique with Steward.

I have no problem with this. Hopefully Angulo keeps winning and that's would be next up for Cotto. Asuming he wins.

Nice check for Cotto and he gets 2 beat the **** out of a Mexican Legend's son at the same time. Sounds good 2 me. Lol Chavez is a G, don't get twisted. I never was a fan of his though. Only Mexican fighter I ever really liked was Erik Morales. He's still my dude!!! My beef with Chavez is he was a little 2 hype when Cheato beat Cotto. I know we got the little the rivalry and he himself took part in the rivalry but I wonder what he thought when he found out about Tony and his plaster wraps.

ur just talking out the ass get off cottos nuts

Never mind that your just an ignorant ****!!! Your such a pathetic Mexican.

Im actually and American citizen like you only I don't go around calling my self Puerto Rican even though it essentially just means you are an American. Tito, Juan Ma, Cotto, Etc they are all just Boxers from the United States LOL!

[ny123]

Hello they had amature careers! You do understand thats the diffrence but how would I ever expect some rican to comprahend that 30+ pro bouts does not compare to 300+ amature bouts against olyimpic level compatition.

Seriously you ***s will for go all common sense just to discredit a fighter that isn't from your swamp rat island.

Nice post you piece of ****

dude, it's all about THE MONEY. bob arum has to place in a a venue where his cash cow ( in this c ase is cotto ) would bring in the most fans. and that is NY. chavez jr is no where near a draw like miguel is, miguel is the superstar in this fight so CHAVEZ jr has to accomodate to miguels terms.

Ugh not really Chavez draws about 10,000 fans on his own here in the states and 20,000 in Mexico. Cotto was never the huge superstar people make him out to be outside of his own ethnic following.

Yeah jr can pretty much draw in cali,Texas,Arizona,Nevada,New mexico.
But i think this fight should be in ny imo.

If they throw this fight on PPV I'm streaming it. And yeah, the fact Cotto is taking two fights in a row that are viewed as breathers by me and a lot of other people in non-hostile territory as always (except against Margarito and Pac) is suspect.

[mathed]

I'd watch this fight. I though Chavez Jr looked good in his last fiht but Cotto is no Duddy. I think Chavez does well for a few rds but Cotto breaks him down after 6 or so.

If Cotto beats Chavez Jr. I know Arum won't let him fight anybody outside of the Top Rank stable. And I think Cotto would beat Berto and is too big for Bradley, so I wouldn't mind seeing a fight between Mike Jones and Cotto. If they threw that fight in Philadelphia I'll bet it would sell out like hot cakes. That would be a fight Cotto should take to see where he stands and not these second raters like Foreman and Chavez Jr.
