"Segun rumores Chavez Jr pordria estar enfrentando al boricua Miguel Cotto tan pronto como en octubre si sale airoso de su combate titular frente a Sebastián Zbik el 4 de julio. “Chávez primero tiene que ganar su pelea, pero ha dicho quiere pelear con Miguel. Ambos pelean para nuestra compañía y no deben existir problemas para hacerla. Es posible que sea el 1 de octubre en Las Vegas. Sería una pelea grande” dijo Arum. Cotto tenia pautado pelear con Antonio Margarito en septiembre pero por motivos aun desconocidos la pelea quedo totalmente descartada “No quiero entrar en los detalles, pero Margarito no está listo para pelear”, comentó Arum." He's basically saying they're both Top Rank fighters and there wouldn't be any problems with making the fight. He says that Chavez has to win his fight first. Possible date; October 1st 2011.
does he say that chavez is really interested in fighting cotto, and tehre would be little trouble making it. I dont see anything about the weight though, if this is for chavez' middleweight belt its pretty good. but I want martinez to have the first shot at chavez.
I'm actually more curious to know why exactly the Margarito rematch is not happening. It's a shame Cotto is going to be out of the ring for so long before fighting again.
I hope Cotto humbles his ass. It's getting rare nowadays to have any young fighters with class and that can actually fight. I'd hate to have a werkito chiflado as a champ. Salvador Sanchez now that was a great Mexican champion.
