Cotto has no choice. The Kazak is his mandatory. Its interesting that those two names came up and yet neither are middleweights or done anything to suggest they are at the top in that division.

Also interesting is that he has already been contacted to step aside to allow Alvarez/Cotto. If I were him given his age and struggle to get noticed I would not step aside. Not even for 7 figures and a right to immediately fight the winner.
