Ok cool I guess. But I wanna know what this means as far as who COTTO will fight next? Roc nation is not gonna put him in there with 3G.

probably k9 for his first fight with roc natin

This. Arum knows better, but looks like he's just a figurehead at this point and it was on DuBoef taking a fighter's word for it. Huge mistake. At least we now know he never had any intention of actually fighting Canelo.

I wonder what the details of the Roc Nation deal are. What kind of fights can they even get him? Jay-Z and Haymon aren't exactly friends, so he won't be fighting PBC guys most likely. Top Rank won't be quick to offer him their guys after this. What are his realistic options?

k9 and GGG.....

How dare Cotto, who has fought many top fighters, actually look out for his best interest.

K9 is a free agent as well. I am sure that is the target and dont forget Marquez is also a free agent.

As for Cotto doing that, he is at the end really so he should be grabbing cash. If Roc wants to over pay for his services Cotto shouldn't turn them down. For Roc I don't know how this works but that is the splashiest move yet and gives them 2 top stars so it makes things interesting.

Yeah because Showtime and HBO wont offer money to the 3rd biggest draw in the sport just because he signed with Roc Nation. Showtime right now has no fights lined up watch them offer crazy money for Cotto's next fight.

lmaoo good for cotto stick it to that fat bastard arum who only cares about money and not his fighters the deal has to open doors for cotto company that's why he took the deal if its true

As Miguel Cotto reunited with Top Rank before his bout versus Delvin Rodriguez in October of 2013, he had pledged his loyalty to Todd duBoef( the president of Top Rank) with whom he had enjoyed a close, personal relationship with. Top Rank had promoted the Puerto Rican to stardom after signing him out of the 2000 Olympics.

After a winless 2012 where he faced Floyd Mayweather and Austin Trout outside the Top Rank banner, he returned to them and notched victories over Rodriguez and then became the middleweight champion of the world with a knockout of Sergio Martinez last June. It was expected that a bout with Mexican star, Saul Alvarez would be next this spring.

Good for Cotto, he has paid his dues.

This must mean that Cotto vs Ward is next right?
