Comments Thread For: Miguel Cotto Wants MSG For Martinez, No Other Venue

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Gaby Penagaricano, the legal adviser to former three division world champion Miguel Cotto (38-4, 31KOs), has informed BoxingScene.com that his fighter is dead set on returning to New York's Madison Square Garden on June 7th, hopefully challenging Sergio Martinez (51-2-2, 28KOs) for the WBC middleweight crown.

Top Rank is going to co-promote the event with Cotto's company, and Top Rank CEO, Bob Arum, stated in an earlier article on BoxingScene that he would love to stage Martinez-Cotto at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, the site of Super Bowl XLVIII on Feb. 2 and home of the Giants and Jets.

Makes sense. Sell that ***** out, and have thousands of your countrymen witness an ass whooping on your behalf.

Cotto is the money

[apocalypto]

Cotto is sounding like a diva btch hope martinez beats the sht out of him. Hopefully he uses this as motivation and punishes him then knocks him out in the later rounds

Martinez needs more time to recover, I hope Cotto fights someone else in June.

[KingTito]

I agree. In this case, Cotto is the draw and the money.

in this case, yeah he does. Martinez needs him more than he needs him.

not really because cotto said the reason he wants Martinez is the title in four divisions,so he does need Martinez because what other champ is he going to fight to claim that title? golovkin? no way
