Bob Arum: Brandon Rios, Timothy Bradley and K-9 Bundrage The 3 Names We Gave Cotto"

[techliam]

Imagine if Rios was Middleweight champion.

Rios vs Golovkin.

Haha, ill go with Golovkin by UD

[jas]

The chance of ggg vs rios going the distance is minuscule

[The Big Dunn]

Yes cotto can have an "optional" defense but at least do it against a MW or at worst a JMW moving up who deserves it.

I guess K-9 gets you rounds in at MSG during PR day weekend and should be easy enough to win so Cotto can defend against the Floyd/Manny winner is Sept.

Can't believe Canelo didn't just wait to make the fight.

[MrRolltide91]

Might as well pick bradley

[sugarsmosley]

drop the title already

[lefthook2daliva]

I actually think Cotto vs Bradley could be good, but not for the MW belts and no fkd-up catch weights.

[Skip Bayless]

there is no optional Dunn, WBC already said it was only an exception for canelo , now i agree about K9 if cotto manages to get that fight sanctioned he will end up being a 2 division champion, still a çrapy fight but not much left available other than ggg... now regardless canelo waiting, the problem was that they found out cotto was waiting for floyd not canelo, that killed the fight and pissed oscar and canelo... just remeber oscar words "cotto had other plans", "the fight can still happen in the future but it will have to be under canelos terms", you can see they are pissed...

Cotto-Bradley is a good fight as long as the MW belt is not on the line

Cotto needs to grow a pair and fight a real MW or drop his phony belt

Ok. SO I guess its K-9. ugggh.

As for Canelo-thats not an excuse IMO. He easily could've waited. It seems he doesn't want to fight Cotto-he wants to fight cotto only if he can be the star. Cotto has just as many options.

Maybe coke head and canelo should have cut out all the "anti Floyd/pro Mexican mad because neither one of us could beat floyd" BS and just made the cotto fight.

does Canelo know MSG is the mecca of boxing? Getting a win there isn't bad for your career FFS!!
