He never seems to back down from a fight. He fought Margarito when it seemed as though none of the top WW wanted anything to do with him. He fought both Mayweather and Pacquiao and he took a risk by fighting Trout who while realtively unproven, was a young talented undefeated fighter. I give Miguel props for his desire to fight the best.
One thing I have to give Cotto props for.......

We all know that at times even money isn't enough to entice fighters to fight each other. All of the aformentioned fights were risks for Cotto, as evidenced by his losing all of them.Comment

Lets not forget that on this site most of Cottos haters said he would never rematch Plasterman.
Not only did he rematch Senor Brick but he beat the plaster chips off him.Comment

he wasn't supposed to lose to Margarito this was his coming out party to PPV kind of like Floyd vs Gatti so no it wasnt a huge risk low reward fight
Money was the only reason he took a catchweight fight he himself said wasn't comfortable with it pretty much he was supposed to lose to Pacquiao and MayweatherComment
