    Gabriel Peñagarícano indicates that Cotto "may" retire in 2015!!

    Wow,

    OH NOOOOOOOOoooooooo....!!!!!

    "El púgil podría realizar un total de dos combates en el 2015, con los que finalmente pondría fin a su carrera profesional."

    Who cares? He just holding 160 belt hostage so its prob for the best. If he is not fighting 160 or wont go down to 154, retiring is best option. He should go to 154 and stay there that's the weight he fighting at anyways.

        It's going to be tough, seeing all these greats from this era retire in the next few years. Floyd, Manny, Cotto, BHop, Froch . Whether you like or dislike these fighters individually, we're at the tail end of an era. I never did like change.

          LOL man, you should know better by now. Cotto HIMSELF has said multiple times in the past that he was going to retire after 1-2 fights and it's been 3 years since the first time he said it.

          AS LONG as there are money fights and he feels like a beast, he will continue. I am not worried one bit.

              I hope not, it'll be a sad day when he does but there's still a lot of fights left for him. Canelo, Floyd 2 (maybe 3) GGG, Bradley (apparently) and even a Canelo rematch or triology. Though I see him schooling Canelo too badly for a rematch.

                  I think he has a lot to offer the sport, but if he decides to retire after two big fights, I have no problem with that. Cotto is a smart man, and he understands the dangers of staying around too long. I wish him the best.

                    He is at the age where most boxers retire, so why not. Two more big money fights with Alvarez and then -- after he beats Alvarez -- Mayweather. After that, hang up the gloves. Makes perfect sense to me.
