on the scene...obviously over the handwrap issue and this is cottos last fight under tr contract...will he stay? hope not
IF Cotto wins that still is a good fight, but the amount of bull**** you'd hear about fighting leftovers and ****.
Yeah but leftover debate means nothing to me, I feel you need to fight good boxers, I mean logically most boxers have losses so you will always fight someone's leftover, if cotto gets by margarito he is still a 154 champion and good fighter even if he is past his prime, him vs floyd was a fight I really wanted to see several years ago, I wouldnt mind it now. Cotto vs canelo is another fight I wouldnt mind watching.
Nope.. been this way for a long time. There's been talk for years of Cotto leaving TR.. even since the last Margarito fight.
I was wondering wtf was going on during the Yuri fight. With the ref giving him instructions and getting mad when his knee went out??? Seemed like they were hoping to feed Cotto to Foreman.
That probably had more to do with Mercante Jr. being bat**** insane, but yeah, you never know. The bobfather would have just LOVED having a Jewish star in his stable, let's be honest.
Anyone know of cotto's contract status after this fight? He should leave for gbp anyway. Cotto vs Kirkland would be another monster fight.
Win or loss, this will be Cotto's last with TR. The Cotto-Oscar golfing match in PR laid down the groundwork. On this note, it will be hard for the Bobfather not to ensure a Margo victory should the fight go to the scorecards...
