Cotto at 162lb 5+ weeks out. That means, 8lb in o/a 5 weeks. Should be right on track!

Big Bear Lake, Caifornia Solo ocho libras separaban temprano este martes a Miguel 'Junito' Cotto del límite de 154, aún a más de un mes para su pelea titular del próximo 1 de diciembre en Nueva York ante Austin Trout, campeón junior mediano de la Asociación Mundial de Boxeo (AMB).
Cotto, en su última de tres semanas de trabajo físico en la altura californiana de Big Bear Lake, inició la jornada en 162 libras, previo a una sesión de pesas en el gimnasio Wolf Total Fitness y una prevista carrera vespertina en la zona montañosa bajo la supervisión de su entrenador, el cubano Pedro Luis Díaz Benítez.
Se ha organizado con Miguel un programa de peso atendiendo los suplementos energéticos que necesita para cada etapa de la preparación, atendiendo al tiempo para la pelea y atendiendo un programa nutricional que tiene, conjuntamente con todas las ayudas ecogénicas que suministra el médico. Eso ha sido muy provechoso, dijo Díaz Benítez a El Nuevo Día en medio del trabajo en el acogedor gimnasio.
La altura tiene algunas cosas con relación al peso. Primero sube, después baja y te vas adaptando pero está muy bien, muy fuerte, agregó.
Distinto al trabajo del lunes, totalmente dentro de las instalaciones de su centro de albergue The Summit, esta vez la jornada incluía par de salidas a los fríos exteriores de Big Bear.
En la casa hay máquinas de pesas, pero este el único gimnasio en Big Bear que tiene pesas libres, que son my importantes para el boxeo. Por eso es que venimos aquí, puntualizó el experimentado técnico.

Google Traslate so you could get the idea....

Big Bear Lake, Caifornia - only eight pounds separated early Tuesday at Miguel 'Junito' Cotto limit of 154, still more than a month for the next title fight Dec. 1 in New York to Austin Trout, junior middleweight champion World Boxing Association (WBA).

Cotto in his last three weeks of physical labor in the height of Big Bear Lake California, began the day at 162 pounds, before a weights session in the gym Wolf Total Fitness and a planned evening race in the mountains under the supervision of his coach, Cuban Pedro Luis Diaz Benitez.

"Miguel has organized a program of weight taking energy supplements you need for each step of the preparation, serving time for the fight and taking a nutritional program that has, together with all the aid provided by the medical echogenic. That has been very helpful, "said Benítez Díaz El Nuevo Dia in our work in the cozy lounge.

"The height has some of the weight. First up, then down and go but is adapting very well, very strong, "he added.

Unlike the work on Monday, entirely within the premises of The Summit center hostel, this time the day included two trips to the cold exterior of Big Bear.

"In the house there are weight machines, but this is the only gym in Big Bear that has free weights, which are important for my boxing. That's why we come here, "the experienced technician.

Sometimes boxing writers have hidden agendas but I have not seen one so anti-Cotto like Dan Ambrose.

His internet pollution is incredible and the guy is persistant as hell! One after the other, after the other....

Here is another one of his flawed, bias and hatefull "I hate Miguel Cotto" articles.

An embarrasment of boxing jurnalism :-( This guy needs to be terminated!!!

Miguel Cotto regresó a Orlando, Florida, para la etapa final de su preparación con miras al compromiso con Austin Trout el 1 de diciembre.

Luego de estar tres semanas en Big Bear, California, el púgil cagüeño trasladó nuevamente su campo de entrenamiento a Orlando.

Pedro Luis Díaz, entrenador de Cotto, dijo ayer estar complacido con los resultados obtenidos en la costa oeste.
Miguel tuvo un buen desempeño y se alcanzaron las metas que nos habíamos trazados, comentó Díaz a Primera Hora vía telefónica desde Orlando.

Por primera vez en su carrera profesional, Cotto entrenó a 7,000 pies de altura.
(Miguel) Se adoptó muy bien. Su desempeño físico y funcional fue extraordinario. Logramos lo que se quería, sostuvo Díaz.
Fueron tres semanas a las que le sacamos mucho provecho. Desconozco si en el futuro se hará otra vez, pero los resultados fueron muy buenos, explicó.
Díaz indicó, a su vez, que Cotto ya comenzó de lleno en las sesiones de guanteos.
Hemos conseguido unos compañeros de sparrings altos y zurdos. Claro, hemos estudiando bastante a Trout, aunque eso no es indicador de que se vaya a lograr la victoria en estos momentos. Hay que seguir delineando el plan táctico para estar listos. Lo estaremos estudiando bien, compartió Díaz, quien estará en la esquina de Cotto por tercera vez.

"Miguel performed well and achieved the goals we had outlined," said Diaz First Time by phone from Orlando.

For the first time in his career, Cotto trained 7,000 feet.

"It took three weeks to which we took a lot out. I do not know if in the future will again, but the results were very good, "he said.

Diaz said, in turn, that Cotto and began in earnest in sparring sessions.

"We've got a few tall southpaws sparring. Sure, we've studied enough of Trout, but that does not indicate that it will achieve the victory right now. We must continue outlining the tactical plan to be ready. We will be studying well "shared Diaz, who will be in Cotto's corner for the third time.

Miguel Cotto vs. Austin Trout preview & prediction

Published Nov 12 2012 by: Scott Levinson | Follow us on Facebook & on Twitter
Fight Prediction: Cotto vs. Trout

On December 1 in Madison Square Garden, Miguel Cotto takes on unbeaten titlist Austin Trout. The 12-rounder is for Trouts WBA title. The path is defined for Cotto. A win here and its Saul Canelo Alvarez in the first half of 2013. For Trout, its his chance to break into the big time.
Cotto is 32 and Trout is 5 years younger, has a few inches in height, and is a southpaw. You could say Trout is the bigger man, having been at this weight his whole career, even weighing in the mid-160s on occasion. Cotto first achieved fame in this sport at 140. He has achieved good results at 154, but is probably giving away a little natural size.
Thats about where the advantages on paper end for Trout. He will be facing a guy who has fought at the absolute top level of the sport. He lost his biggest fights, but won plenty of big ones along the way. Cotto probably has a dozen wins that surpass anything Trout ever accomplished in the ring.

Date: December 1, 2013

Site: Madison Square Garden, New York City

Titles: WBA 154-pound title: 12 Rounds

Miguel Cotto, 37-3 (30 KOs)
Vs.
Austin Trout, 25-0 (14 KOs)

On top of that, Cotto is fighting at Madison Square Garden where he will enjoy a decided fan advantage. In all fairness, it could be worth a couple rounds on the cards. Whatever comfort Trout might have that Cotto is coming off a loss is dashed by the fact that it was in fact Cottos best loss--a reasonably competitive fight with top dog Floyd Mayweather in May.

I really had Cotto figured wrong. After the Margarito and Pacquiao losses, where he sustained protracted beatings, I thought it would be all downhill for Cotto. He has held together remarkably well. Those who were suspect because Cottos resurgence was based on wins over the now-forgettable Yuri Foreman, the worn-out Ricardo Mayorga, and a tattered Antonio Margarito, were assuaged by Cottos spirited showing against Mayweather.
Is Trout closer to Mayweather or more along the lines of Foreman, Mayorga, and Margarito? I think hes probably somewhere in between, but its hard to tell to exactly what extent. There is nothing on his record to suggest greatness, but he hasnt really had his chance yet.
I was mildly surprised to see he so decidedly beat David Lopez in 2011, with Lopez having not lost in 6 years. In addition, it was impressive that he whitewashed Delvin Rodriguez with such ease in his last fight in May, however dull it might have been.
Trout seems like a difficult guy to fight--a conservative technician with a sort of boring effectiveness about him. Hes got a good head on his shoulders. For Cotto, I think its a high-risk/low-reward fight. No one knows Austin Trout. A win paves the way for an Alvarez fight, but considering Cottos track record, couldnt he have booked that fight without first having to do this?
It makes the Canelo fight a bit more legit if Cotto is coming off a good win, but Austin Trout is a fighter whose merit outweighs his name-power by quite a bit. You usually dont see aging stars like Cotto in fights like that--what essentially is a warmup fight against a possible diamond-in-the-rough fighter like Trout.
Trout does some things you like to see in a potential big-name fighter. His sense of distance is excellent. He has a good ring IQ. His southpaw jab snakes out with a good deal of authority. He is tricky with his feints and little moves he uses to get his opponents to commit before landing nice counters. Hes patient and waits for his spots--a mature, professional fighter with a lot of talent and skills.
Cotto vs. Trout Prediction

I think its a toss-up kind of fight that will be shaded in Cottos favor for a few reasons. The fight being at the Garden is big for Cotto. Not that they will be looking to victimize Austin Trout, but its hard to imagine judges going out of their way in that environment to score rounds for the New Mexico fighter. I also think Cottos increased comfort level under the bright lights and in front of the big live and TV audience will help him get off to a better start than Trout.
Unless you have the boxing skills of Floyd Mayweather, the way to defeat Cotto is to beat the fight out of him. Trout cant do that, and while slick, his slickness is not on a level where its easy to picture him making Cotto look foolish. Cotto is a slick veteran in his own right, a patient fighter who waits for his spots. He has outboxed fighters like Shane Mosley, Zab Judah, and others whose resumes surpass the works of Austin Trout.
If we dont know Cotto by now, well never know him. The result of this fight therefore inevitably comes down to the question How good is Austin Trout? As opposed to Cotto, hes at that stage where you really dont know. This is his litmus test--is he big-time or another in a long line of titleholders who were here today and gone tomorrow?
This endorsement of Cotto is made with a fair amount of trepidation. When you have an aging fighter who is bound to hit a wall at anytime against an X-factor like Trout, there is only so much assuredness one can have in making a prediction. I think Trout is good enough to give Cotto a difficult distance fight. I dont feel, however, that he has the experience to create the separation he will need to win a decision.
Prediction: Miguel Cotto by unanimous decision.

Carlos González /cgonzalez@primerahora.com

A poco más de dos semanas para una cita titular, Miguel Cotto se encuentra en la última etapa de su preparación para el compromiso del 1 de diciembre con Austin Trout.

El púgil puertorriqueño continúa a todo vapor el plan de trabajo diseñado por el entrenador Pedro Luis Díaz.
Todo sigue marchando bien. Hemos trabajado en los guanteos y en la estrategia que nos llevará a la victoria, sostuvo Díaz a Primera Hora vía telefónica desde Orlando, Florida, ciudad donde Cotto lleva acuartelado desde finales del pasado octubre.
Debemos terminar con los guanteos para finales de la próxima semana, antes de trasladarnos a Nueva York la semana antes de la pelea, agregó el entrenador.

Asimismo, Díaz indicó que Cotto se está acercando al peso máximo de la división superwélter (154 libras).
Con el peso nunca hemos tenido problemas. Está muy cerca del peso, pero el ritmo de trabajo se mantiene. Nos hemos concentrado en la coordinación y los cambios de distancias, explicó.
Cotto pasó cerca de tres semanas en Big Bear, California, entrenando a 7,000 pies sobre el nivel del mar. Luego, regresó a Orlando para las sesiones de guanteos con miras a lidiar con las ventajas en estatura y alcance de Trout.
La estatura que pueda tener Trout no es un indicador de victoria. Miguel ha trabajado duro para lograr la victoria y estoy seguro que será de gran orgullo para el pueblo de Puerto Rico, concluyó.
Cotto buscará el 1 de diciembre convertirse en campeón mundial por quinta ocasión cuando rete a Trout por la faja de la Asociación Mundial de Boxeo (AMB) en el Madison Square Garden.

Cotto spent about three weeks in Big Bear, California, training at 7,000 feet above sea level. He then returned to Orlando for sparring sessions in order to deal with the advantages in height and reach of Trout.

"The Trout stature may have is not an indicator of victory. Miguel has worked hard for the win and I'm sure will be of great pride for the people of Puerto Rico, "he said.
