First of all, outside of the apparent Haymon/Jay-Z beef, why would Floyd NEVER fight Cotto again, especially if it's for a world championship in a sixth weight division? Cotto gave Mayweather a good fight (even though Mayweather won 9-3), Freddie Roach wasn't around to help "renew" Miguel Cotto, the rematch wouldn't be a bad fight, and it'd come with an angle to sell the actual fight. Cotto isn't tied down to HBO or any other network, so you can't say the TV is an issue.Stop being delusional. There will never be a Mayweather - Cotto II. No reason for Floyd to have another rematch against someone he beat easily the first time. If Floyd does have another rematch, it will be against Pacquaio where the real money is.
Cotto will not fight Canelo for a title because he will no longer have it by that time due to either vacating it, being stripped or being stopped by GGG. If he even retains it after his voluntary.
Cotto will milk his voluntary for whatever he can and then vacate and return to 154 if not 147. He'll finish his three fight contract with Roc Nation, if Roc Nation are around long enough, and then retire.
Secondly, no one was making the argument that that was the plan; the point was simply that Cotto, after taking a soft voluntary defense, will head into the Fall with options aplenty. (If you honestly think that K2/Golovkin wouldn't accept a step-aside fee and a written contract for the winner of Cotto/Alvarez, instead being hung up on fight Heiland for a vacant WBC belt, you're more delusional than I thought).Comment
