Comments Thread For: Cotto Bids Marquez a Kind Farewell Upon Hearing of Retirement

[vaborikua2014]

Yeah I don't think Canelo will make a jump to 168lb soon but Ramirez is on record on a Villanify interview claiming he'll stay at 168lb for a while and would like a domestic showdown with Canelo in the future. He'd be willing to make that fight even if it's a catchweight he said so who knows. Doubt Canelo and Oscar are one to pass on another Mexican money spinner. Then again when they're picking the likes of Josesito Lopez and Khan they might just avoid the fight altogether.

Lol i dont blame the lopez fight too much sincr it was supposed to be Ortiz till he got his jaw broken. Thats a good idea though if hes able to beat ggg and win one or 2 more at 160 and zurdo can keep winning at 168 a catchweight of 164 or 165 like he did vs chavez would be a great fight

No fighter is perfect or on top of their game in every fight. I was just saying Verdejo has promise. The talent is clearly there but if he ever fulfills it is down to his personal application. I still expect him to have a good if not great career.

Seen very little of the other names you mentioned but will keep a lookout on YouTube and on the news for them.

Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah, I haven't given up hope completely on Verdejo. He definitely should do as Cotto has done and get a Top trainer. He may be on the right path with that training in California.

But there's a lot of prospects and young fighters to look out. Hopefully one or a few of those names will make an impact.


That Subriel "Browny" Matias guy looks promising. He needs a good trainer to refine his skills though or shore them up actually. Machado is doing good so far. And Joseph Adorno could be a future star. He has a really impressive amateur record.

Yeah i think Marquez took him as far as he can time for a new trainer to push him towards a new level. Also there were rumors verdejo has 2 many distractions in pr so hopefully bigbear cali helps him. Now in talkin about the prospects machado lools good and i like that hes a big dude with power and cotto got him on right path hes one to watch and adorno is one that i think will be a future champ. Pitufo im iffy about. Theres a couple other ricans from jersey starting their careers who are highly praised i put their name out on the other thread before.

Yeah out of those names mentioned.

I'm paying attention particularly on Machado and Adorno. That Subriel "Browny" Matias looks good, he needs to shore up his technique. If he gets a good trainer he might be one to watch.

Danielito Zorrilla, still need to see more of him. And Pitufo, eh, Lol.

Hopefully Verdejo can get things turned around too.

But we'll see, plenty of prospects to keep an eye on though to keep us busy. Lol
