Ok. Maybe you know more than me of boxing or you know more of the sport than the Puerto Rican press that said that the true reason for Cotto to refuse the Canelo fight was that he refused the 10 millions offer to make the fight. And not talking about top fighters, tell me, with Golovkin and Canelo out of scene tell me what any viable option do I have to make a decent payperview more than Bradley. Or a decent name like K9 (not Rios for God's sake) to make a competitive fight?. Now if excuse me I'm going to sleep.

Would love to see Cotto and Alvarez if Cotto looks as good in his next fight as he did last year.
The only Cotto fights I'm intrigued by now are either Alvarez or Golovkin- and I really don't blame Cotto for staying away from GGG. He's really just too small and I think he would get absolutely thrashed.Comment

Cotto's obviously taking it easy at the end of his career. Snubbing Arum means no fights with any of Top Rank's fighters. Signing with ROC Nation means no fights with any of Haymon's fighters. All that's left are a few much lesser fighters and the formidable GGG, whom Cotto will never face. Maybe he'll face Canelo, but it will likely bet @ a catch weight. He only meant to set a record in winning the MW belt. He has no intention of defending it against a top level MW. Ride off into the sunset on your pink pony, Cotto.

are you implying his knee wasn't injured because he ran(although he looked like the tin-man) for a split second? he even limped at the end of that sequence to keep pressure off it but i'll trust the doctors and sergio himself over your tiny anecdotal evidence that his knee was in fact healthy. once again why would he say this if his knees were healthy? "I take it in stride. I am still having trouble walking. When my knee warms up, I start to hobble" he put on a brave(fraudulent) face during the fight but his knees were just gone. face reality.Last edited by daggum; 04-08-2015, 12:06 PM.Comment

What's the issue if he fights Canelo at a CW? Sergio won the title at 158, Cotto won it at 159 and Canelo fights at 155...Cotto's obviously taking it easy at the end of his career. Snubbing Arum means no fights with any of Top Rank's fighters. Signing with ROC Nation means no fights with any of Haymon's fighters. All that's left are a few much lesser fighters and the formidable GGG, whom Cotto will never face. Maybe he'll face Canelo, but it will likely bet @ a catch weight.

I never claimed to be an "expert" or anything like that so we can get out of the way. The reason why I stated that you didn't know what you were talking about and then I posted what actually happened is just that. You were informed wrong. Cotto has spoken himself about what happened with canelo. Its been posted several times on different threads. I never like the Rios or Bradley fight, those were bob arum options but you got mad cuz "cotto turned his back on top rank". F^ck old arum with those bs options. K9 is an ok fight, not for the belt unless if it was for K9's IBF strap. and its ok have a full rest.Comment

well i don't know where you are getting that info from. someone doesn't fly around the world visiting various doctors if they have healthy knees.Comment

Here we go again. F^ck arum and his bradley & rios options. Looks like you are mad that those fights are not possible now. Gaby Penagaricano has already stated that al haymon has some fighters that he would like to get in the ring with cotto.Cotto's obviously taking it easy at the end of his career. Snubbing Arum means no fights with any of Top Rank's fighters. Signing with ROC Nation means no fights with any of Haymon's fighters.

So according to you, "Cotto has no intention of defending it against a top level MW". So that means that geale isn't a "top level mw" and cotto should better defend it against; Jermaine Taylor, Sam Soliman, Tureano Johnson, Sergio Mora, Billy Joe Saunders or hassan ndam... you know cuz heiland wont probably cut it for you.Comment
