Mayweather - Cotto 2, December 1st, MGM Grand

[Tam Seddon]

Just reading fightnews, and it says that this is going to happen. What do you think about this? I loved the first fight and thought it was good for the fans, but I just can't see Cotto winning IMO.

I have one question. Why?

[erics44]

yeah i enjoyed the first andi like cotto but he wasnt really in the first as in close to winning

id rather see mayweather hatton 2 with a different ref

[g3org3]

why the hell would cottos team want him in another 1 sided fight and see him takin another beating

[Tam Seddon]

It will be like the first fight with a similar outcome, it's just a money making rematch. I think Cotto should go after Canelo or Trout, somebody of that calibre and rebuild his name and maybe rematch Floyd down the line. I don't see the point in an
Immediate rematch, it was pretty clear Floyd won so why does he needs to prove it again in his next fight? Weird...

[Tam Seddon]

Boxingscene is simply stating that dec 1st is cottos return date, so you have to think about the credibility of the fightnews source, with Floyd being in jail.

Yeah it's probably just someone throwing Floyds name out there. I wouldn't mind seeing it again but I doubt the result would be any different unless Mayweather puts his foot down and stops Cotto.

Didn't watch the Cotto-Mayweather fight did you?


I'm fine with it, I don't expect the result to be much different, but you know Cotto is going to give it 100% vs whoever he fights. I would have thought Floyd would have gone after Canelo, but seeing how there's a bit of bad luck being tied to being Canelo's next opponent Cotto seems like the right choice from a luck perspective. Martinez would have been a good choice too.

Warrior Cotto is dead. It's Money Miguel now. Cotto no longer cares rather he wins or loses. It's only about the money for him now. The old warrior Cotto would of never coward out of a fight against Saul Alvarez like Money Miguel did. Sad.

yea cause beating up Cotto's leftovers should have earned Alvarez a shot against him? lol VD you're always so full of shit bro, let Canelo fight someone who ISN'T SHOT beyond shit, Canelo "I love leftovers" Alvarez has yet to face a top 5 guy, cause sorry Cintron and Mosley don't count , let him fight Lara, Trout, Molina, or even Martirosyan, all of them are a step up to the crap he's been fighting

Ha! Cotto is coming off a clear cut loss and doesn't even hold a title. Yet now muthafukkas need to "earn" a shot to face him? Get the fuck on with that bullshit. That's some of the dumbest shit I ever read.
Fighters now must "earn" there shot to face a fighter coming off a loss. Fucking hilarious

he lost to the man who is considered P4P #1 in the world, he didn't go ahead and fight a washed up fighter who hadn't won in over 2 yrs, Canelo needs Cotto not vice versa, that's why the ginger is the one who has to EARN the shot, either way the only Cotto that the ginger will hold a W against is Jose Miguel, and even in that fight he was almost sparked

[Rantcatrat]

As much as the first Mayweather versus Cotto fight was a good fight, the outcome was predictable, and the second fight will be even more so. taking into consideration that Cotto has reached a point in his career that he is strictly fighting big money fights, Cotto versus Canelo is the fight that should happen on 12/1. It has Puerto Rico versus Mexico drama. It's a great fight. Of course, Martinez is the real fight for Cotto, but Cotto ducked him before, and he'll do it again.
