Comments Thread For: Arum on Cotto's Options: Chavez, Canelo, Martinez, More

[The Surgeon]

I just hate the Chavez fight. I want to see Cotto not have to be on his toes for 12 rounds. You're talking about a full sized Middleweight against a natural WW.

And is Chavez that terrible? He's good enough that the size advantage will matter. He's much more skilled than Margarito.

This is the fight that will happen though no doubt in my mind. You might as well just pencil Chavez Jr./Cotto in for May or June.

Top Rank will not make big fights outside of their company and it sucks.

I hate the fight too. Chavez isnt great but he is better than many think and Cotto should he overcome the Massive size difference wouldnt get full credit for the win. Jnr is a Big Boy....

Cotto should be too much though i think

And Yes its the fight i see happening, the worst of all the available big fights - an In-House Top Rank bout designed to make Chavez's star rise further.....

Did u actually just throw rubios name in the mix?? Lol!!! Cmon we are taLking about good fighters here not journeymen

I'd like to see Pacquiao Cotto at 154.

I think Cotto stands a good chance of winning that fight

[Gun Fights]

he losses to all three imo i think he should retire that was he original plan to retire around 30

Style wise the winner of Berto vs Ortiz 2 vs Cotto makes for some great action! Especially if its Vic again....

Can Cotto still do 147 and perform at his best??? If so how about Marquez vs Miguel? The Full 147lb limit might be too much of an ask for Old Juan against a fighter like Cotto though, Bradley vs Cotto at 147? Or 154! Cotto has ALOT of great fights out there, hell how about Khan? Paul Williams is still relevant and with his Huge size advantage and pressure a real threat, Lara is the buisness....SHIEEET Lets get it ON!!!

Really...?! WTF ever happen to Rubio? He was mandatory before martinez! I say rubio vs chavez, cotto vs martinez! Winners fight each other & Canelo vs kirkland winner fights vanes! Someone tell cotto the Dr wont be there this time! Viva Mexico! Puro tijuana mis cabrones!

I think the WBC gave him the "Latino Title" and he is facing Matt Vanda.

Rubio is getting the shaft worse than Martinez

[v_rod407]

so the doctor scored 8 out of 9 rounds for cotto? He damn near had a shut out on all 3 scorecards. With no doctor he still wins a easy UD and im not even a cotto fan

I'd love to see Cotto/Khan, Cotto/Ortiz at WW. It won't happen. I don't expect Cotto to move down to 147 either.
