Miguel Cotto vs. Lamont Peterson...coming in December

[Golden Boi 360]

Seems like a decent fight.

Cotto tough fight but winnable fight for Peterson

[The Problem Child]

Kneeguel Cotto everybody.

Cotto's options suck.. I was hoping that if he can't get a big name/payday, he'd at least take on a good challenge (top5 from 154). Blah. Disappointed.

[Ray Corso]

"Why Lamont Peterson"? Why? He can't punch! Less than 50% KO rate and that's a safe opponent for Cotto.
Why not a Bradley he has plenty of millage and doesn't hit hard but he also has fought at 147 for some time now where as Peterson is basically a super lightweight not known for power. He also has been off his feet a lot in his career.
Why not Thurman at 150, I bet Thurman takes the fight.

[Prince Madison]

that would be a classic miguel cotto opponent selection lol

[Motofan]

Why? Cotto only has a few fights left. This is meaningless. What does it prove if he beats a guy Lucas bombed out?

[CaneloMaidana]

Isn't Peterson under Haymon? I thought Haymon and Jay z didn't work together?

They don't, they have personal beef outside of boxing.

[CaneloMaidana]

I doubt it cause they Haymon has no reason to help Jay Z.

And this helps Jay by giving his main guy a fight.

That's a random fight. Definition of a cherry pick on Cotto's part. Why don't he just rematch Trout?
