Miguel Cotto to return in the fall

[IamInuit]

I would have love to have seen the difference mayweather sr would have made to cotto earlier on as his trainer.

Mayweather Snr knows very little about training fighters, he would not have improved Cotto any more than his current trainer.

I've wondered how the late, great Manny Stewart would've impacted Cotto's career. But at the same time I give all the credit in the world to Pedro Diaz for implementing some unorthodox training methods to Cotto's camp, and for bringing Cotto back toward the boxing style that served him so well earlier in his career.

Quite right. Its amazing how well Cotto has done not having a trainer really since the split with his uncle and only recently getting Diaz. I think him not being a big tape watcher and rather adjusting to who the man is in front of him helped in that regard.

Mayweather sr might have improved cottos defense and made an improvement on his already decent footwork.

He surely wouldnt have made him any worse.

I do not think it has been bad with Diaz.

Every fighter is different, and you need to have a bond with your trainer and respect him in order to really learn, regardless of what they may know. Floyd Sr needless to say is an utter loon and a lot of guys would probably rather have an Urangutan in their corner. Just my take at least.

Cotto says he plans to have 3 fights before retiring

When things aren't working or the shit hits the fan and Mayweather Sr is around, it's always and I do mean always, someone else who is to blame.
Maybe be took too many punches and can't help the way he acts. It puzzles me why anyone, except family, would trust him.

Cotto/Smith in the fall.

Cotto/Smith in the fall.

I hope not, nothing against Cotto.

I really want Molina to get the opportunity...

Cotto is going to fight three more times and then call it quits.

Cotto should fight Canelo. If he fights him on the inside I see a long and uncomfortable night for the boy. To me Canelo just seems too robotic to keep Cotto from moving in behind that stiff jab and deft movement and once he's there I think Cotto just has too much experience and craft for him. As long as Cotto stays there and smothers him after he throws combos he should be relatively safe. If he pulls straight back out like he puzzingly did against Mayweather I see him getting caught right on the end of Canelo's punches. If he tries to outbox/punch him I see the same thing happening except he tires and gets pummeled into submission. Either way it would be an interesting fight.

Cotto is looking to make as much as he can before he retires. The big money fight for him is Alavarez provided he keeps winning. If Alavarez beats Trout and the Floyd fight doesn't get made then Cotto will be after that fight. He's not going to hang around to fight guys like Kirkland unless it's a tuneup for a big fight.

I doubt he would fight Molina. He saw the trouble Kirkland had with him. Cotto would have the same problem. Cotto should fight Angulo and see if he can be relevant again to Alvarez

Was meaning Molina/ Smith (not sure why I typed Bundrage)

Agreed but Molina has been screwed over so many times he deserves this

Easy win for Molina imo
