Comments Thread For: Photos: Miguel Cotto Grinding Hard For Kamegai Showdown

[PrBoxing88]

Is Cotto sparring Machado??? is that correct, Machado will gain alot of experience and will be much better for his next fight and for Cotto is actually good sparring Machado is 5"11, real powerful, southpaw and much much younger.

Man if Cotto goes life and death with this guy he needs to retire asap

If that happens, agreed.

It should be entertaining, I think Kamegai will have moments here and there. It's mostly the style match up that should make the fight entertaining while it lasts.

But if Cotto does go life and death with Kamegai, then yes I would call it a day if I was Cotto.

lol, come on jay, because he's been out since november 2015. He's about to be 37 and coming off a long layoff. I'm perfectly okay with this fight. It shouldn't be for a title though, that's bogus. But the fight itself is fine.

I wouldn't expect an older rusty cotto coming off a 21 month layoff to fight a top rated fighter his first fight back after 21 months off. Lol

didnt floyd fight canelo when he was like 37 lol not off a long layoff but still! Cotto should be rematching trout or someone...

[Reloaded]

Why is he grinding hard for a punching bag bum lmfao.... Joke fight

Because he is an elite fighter and they always train at a high level its their nature. Got no idea why they took this fight just seems such a waste but you never know with the aging stars they do get old so I guess every guy with 2 fists has a chance.

Lol, nah 21 month lay off, coming off a loss and getting older.

Next fight will be a big name or good name. I wouldn't expect Floyd to fight a top fighter if he was off for 21 months and his last fight was a loss.

Marquez was a safe fight for Floyd. Marquez was small at that time and coming up in weight. He was too small for Floyd to do any damage.

I don't knock Floyd for taking Marquez in his first fight back. Floyd hadn't fought in almost two years so I never knocked him for fighting Marquez.

Soto-Karass got knocked out by Kamegai in Kamegai's last fight.

Soto-Karass has a KO win over Andre Berto.

I don't have any problem with Cotto-Kamegai.

i guess canelo rematch is next.... even if canelo loses to ggg the rematch with cotto will probably happen

[robbyheartbaby]

Wouldn't be that surprised if Kamegai pulls off the win, at this stage of Cotto's career after the layoff it could happen. I stand by the fact he has been shot since 2012. His 2 wins since the Mayweather fight have been against an injured Martinez and a shot to s*** quitting Daniel Geale.

Cotto isn't as beloved as past puerto Rican greats but he will be missed. Especially with the lack of potential superstars on the horizon. Verdejo and pedraza don't seem to be panning out as expected and I wasn't overly impressed with the Olympian Cintron. Gonna be a dry spell for a bit as far as top PR fighters.
