Comments Thread For: Photos: Miguel Cotto in Camp, With New Trainer Diaz

Throw the right hand? He needs to emphasize on throwing the left hook to the body against Margarito. I dont recall him doing that in the first fight that much if at all. Its definitely his most effective punch. He should've gotten Barrera's trainer Rudy Perez. That wouldve been interesting

Calm down, kid!! This is their first day of training take it easy!!!

I have a feeling that Mayweather will call out Cotto if he wins vs Margarito.

Talked to Emanuel Steward tonight... He said no hard feelings with Cotto and he still picks him to win the rematch... A few quotes below


“I think he definitely has a chance of beating Margarito. He’s more determined than we saw before. This time he will be like Andy Lee was with his fight with Vera, more aware of not wearing himself out. So he will fight a more deliberate fight. I think Margarito took a lot of punishment in his last few fights."

“Even though Miguel Cotto took punishment in his fights, against Margarito and Pacquiao, I think he has recovered from that mentally and physically. He came back with two good wins. I think he’s more rested between the two and with it being in New York he is going to be tremendously fired up with the Puerto Rican crowd. So, I pick him to win the rematch.”

Article should be up later...

You can tell he respects him as a trainer. Hopefully it works out.

I've always said Cotto needed a good spanish speaking trainer. Maybe this guy is it?

Agree, looks like they getting along.

[New England]

at least he's got his undivided attention



frankly is embarrassing for steward to assume that 5-6 weeks is adequate preparation for a world class fighter like cotto



both guys look to be very excited about their relationship

maybe the photographer is taking shots at steward showing how involved diaz is, lol!

he's even timing the rounds himself !
