Yea, terrible move. Would have maybe been an OK fight if it were Cotto's first at 160 or something, as I belive Bundrage has fought only at 154 as well. In this case it's pretty much a joke.
If Arum has his way Bradley will get Bundrage :-\
Garbage. Just cannot put lipstick on this pig

Agreed, not a good move. Maybe it is a stay busy to fight. Not sure if Cotto wants a last big money fight or a legacy fight, but after 14 years of wars he has a right to choose the last few bouts he'd like to end his career with.
Well if it's true he signed a 3-fight $50 million deal with Roc Nation then who can blame him? Only a complete mental would choose top class dangerous opponents with that deal
He could have had that had he chosen to fight K9 when he was the IBF champ the 1st time around in 2012 but instead he went after a belt he just lost to Mayweather against a then undefeated southpaw. I have no doubt that Cotto would have busted up K9 and won another belt for leverage against whomever he wanted even an enticing rematch against Mayweather which could have made him a lot more money in a unification bout. I just do not understand him or his promoters and managers mind set.Quote:

I'll wait to see what happens here but if its Cornelius then its fair to say he really has no plans on fighting a middle. I'm seeing reports that Hbo is refusing this fight unless he signs to fight Alvarez next which would put him in a bit of a quandary if the Kazak executes his mandatory rights. The Wbc has said at least ten times that they will enforce it but I wonder if things will once again change with them if Alvarez is involved. I suppose Jay Z and Oscar could kick the Kaz 6 large with a guarantee by the WBC that he gets the winner.

i agree. cotto has fought the best throughout his career but im just not a fan of him holding onto the "legitimate" MW title and not actually looking to defend it. he won the title so now give it up if you have no desire to fight the top MWs (or even a MW for that matter).Quote:

I still feel sorry for cotto.
Yeah he has millions and will be the the A side in the majority of his fights but I will never forget that margarito fight.
If ever a loss was to take away something from someone that fight was it..to that cheating bar steward
come on dudes this is just a tune up fight for him. He wants to knock out a bum before he moves on to the really big fight that we are all waiting for.
