Cotto to fight Gatti instead of Castillo later this year?

[borikua]

Seems like Bob wants Cotto-Gatti at the MSG IF Gatti beats Baldi...That would be a good first fight for Cotto at 147. but no fight with Castillo then???

Check the interview with Bob Arum in BT....

I think Arum is having second thoughts. Maybe he wants to make a little more money before sending him into the lion's den with Castillo.

I think Cotto has a thing for Italians.

Cotto on adverage fights four times a year.

Branco - WTKO 8
Paulie - June
Gatti - Aug?
Castillo - Nov

That'll be good stuff.

I think this is a very good choice, Cotto will face his toughest challenge yet, Gatti old but still packs a punch, however remember both pbf and dlh destroyed him in the same amount of time
and both kd gatti in the 1st

I doubt that he fights Gatti at 147 and then goes back to 140 to fight Castillo unless he fights Castillo at 147, which I think would be better for him.

Very very good fight for Cotto, but It would only make sense if Gatti beats Baldi and gets the titles..

That's the point, Baldi is unbeated in nearly 8 years and Gatti is the very definition of 'damaged goods'. It will be a close fight.

Still i think that Gatti should win against Baldi...I wouldn't mind seein Cotto-Baldi instead...
