Comments Thread For: Miguel Cotto Could Return To 154-Pounds, Says Roach

He could fight Andy lee at msg, that fight would sell well there, and I'm sure hbo would pick it up.

I'm a big lee & cotto fan so I'd love to see it, but most people here probably don't care for it.

He'd be at an even bigger size disadvantage than he was last night. I wouldn't mind a Cotto/Trout rematch; however, the problem is RocNation/Haymon.

Keep him away from Lara. My dad is Cuban and Puerto Rican, he would have a stroke if they fought

I say call Bradley out at 154 ( Atlas vs Roach would be interesting ) and cash out your last big payday with Roc Nation and call it a career.

This fight was actually proposed by Arum a while back and Bradley was on board. So why not?

What does trout do that you'd ever want to watch him fight again?

Seriously, dude throws punches like he doesn't want to hurt anyone. IMO cotto took him lightly, didn't train hard, and just didn't care. Don't need that rematch.

But I do agree, lee has a significant size advantage, but so will most guys at 154.

He should fight at 154. He came weighed in under the 155 catch weight.

Unfortunately for him the majority of the Top 154 pound fighters are under the PBC umbrella. So I'm not sure what guy he could fight him big money.

Maybe Amir Khan since "supposedly" he doesn't need Al Haymon to make all his fights. I wanna say his contract is a fight by fight basis contract. Not sure about that one. I would also say Demetrius Andrade but that fight won't sell.
Maybe through in names like Kell Brook or Tim Bradley

Fights with Khan, and Bradley would make good money. But Brook and Andrade would be pretty tough to sell to the public.

I don't know where you would get the $ to pay them.

Didn't cotto just make like 15 mill? Bradley made 1.9 his last fight. Without ppv its not possible, and no one wants to oay for this.

Bradley at 154 doesn't really interest me either.

I actually wouldn't mind Cotto vs Kirkland as a crossroads fight

That seems like the best road to me too tbh & was the first thing I thought of for Cotto's next fight.

Idk what he's doing at 154. Its either Demetrius Andrade or James Kirkland (if we can find him & get him to agree to a deal for longer than a week with his ****** ass) or RN needs to become a PBC promoter cuz nearly all the top guys & notable guys at 154 are under the PBC banner. Seems like Cotto is still an attractive enough name & money guy he can get Andy Lee (who sounds like he's looking for some paydays & to gtfo of boxing) to agree to a catchweight.

Dawg, I really doubt the masses would want to see Andy Lee and Cotto go at it, as it is already a given Cotto is NO middleweight by any means.

Bradley isn't a big puncher, isn't a volume punching pressure fighter but is well known in the boxing circle.

Regarding revenue, if Mayweather can bamboozle the public into believing Berto was PPV worthy and still cash out handsomely I think Cotto with the Latin market contingent can pull off this same Houdini. I mean I've seen stranger things.
