Beating Martinez > Canelo right now. He can get that fight afterwards after Canelo gets a win first and maybe another jr mw title.

No. You need to look up what the word lucrative means.

So your saying Cotto would make more money fighting Canelo who put up an embarrassing performance against Floyd compared to Cotto's, more then Cotto challenging for the middleweight title in New York?

lmao did you forget Cotto runs New York. Hes a rockstar there. Canelo would want it in texas or Vegas.

Of course he would make more money. Why is this even a question?

Who cares if he just lost to the best boxer on this planet? He still has all of his fans.

How can anyone even question if Cotto will make more money fighting Canelo than Martinez? LOL

I like Martinez, but he has NOWHERE near the star power. That's just a fact.

Rampage vs. Tito? Now I get it... an MMA guy. Ugh.

Disregard my posts. I'll move on.

i think a canelo fight would be a more even match up then a martinez fight, even though it would be more lucrative if cotto fought martinez and beat him first, but i don't think martinez and dibella would sign on for it without a rematch clause. it's a catch 22.

Cotto is a free agent and he can fight Canelo if he wants to without Top Rank's OK.

[The Surgeon]

As far as im aware Cotto is a free agent but is looking to finish off his career working alongside (not for) Bob and "The Company".

Canelo and Martinez are both dangerous fights but Cotto aint never been about cherry picking, I think as good a fight as Canelo would be it will be the Sergio fight that gets done because should he win it would make Miguel a 4 weight champion - PR's first and is a more credible win with Martinez being the lineal champion at MW and Saul coming off a loss even if it is to Mayweather

[brick wall]

cotto is already set to fight martinez next year under top rank promotions.

canelo and golden boy can go look at other directions. besides canelo just got his a$$ handed to him so he should try to rebound from that loss first before jumping to another major fight.

[QballLobo]

Martinez is the safer fight if Cotto wants to go out with a win. Martinez coming off and injury, long layoff, and pushing 40 is a safer bet than a Canelo who isn't in his prime yet.
I think Cotto/Martinez is a good scrap.
I think Canelo beats this version of Cotto easily...

[AP♠]

Canelo needs to stand in line and wait for the Cotto sweepstakes.

yes is the answer but like cotto said before, talk to top rank for my fights

he has been in both companies, he has decided that top rank (rightly so) is better, they look after guys better and don't whine like richard does every week like a dumped ex because top rank are still getting better ratings than golden girls
