Who can Cotto beat at MW and still make $$$ against??? Quillin??? Cold war Lee??? Got a large enough following, but does he merit a PPV vs Cotto? Korobov??? Likely beats him. Cotto never was gonna fight at MW....he saw an opportunity to beat an aging decrepit fighter and took it. He's gotta score some dough with that trinket, so it's got to be vs someone PPV proven and not a threat to put him down and out????? Gotta be May, Pac, or Bradley since Canelhoe and Lara are busy and Andrade has not yet made a name for himself.
Cotto Bradley is actually a fascinating fight for me, but if Cotto is the middleweight champ he needs to fight middleweights. I don't want to see middleweight lineal ship auctioned off to welterweights at 156lb catch weights when fighters like Golovkin are in the waiting.
While I don't like the fight, it's not as if Bradley is a can. I just don't like it because Bradley is a 147 guy. He ain't even fit for 154, and he's suppose to to nearly 160?
