I doubt he wants anything to do with the other top Welters. The Lemieux fight seems higher risk but greater reward. Fights with Bradley, Khan or Marquez seem more appealing to Cotto I would guess.
    I don't get the Lemieux match as it's where Cotto has already refused to travel. Cotto has no reset off that, not to mention Lemieux has bricks to end anyone looking past him. Just a dumb move. Ironically Lemieux is also being mentioned for Canelo, again to legitimize a 160 run. I always wanted a Trout rematch and thought Cotto needs to right that but as it's played out Cotto didn't need him.
    Cotto would get beat at Middleweight against Lemieux stay at the lower weights.

    It might be Golden Boy trying to raise Lemieux's stock. A win over a name like Cotto, especially an explosive KO gets people talking.

    But would Cotto allow himself to be a stepping stone suddenly. He's been on the gravy train with either tailor made styles, circumstances to make himself look devastating or losing to very top guys. Lemieux is all risk little reward to me. Be interesting to see if Lemieux makes the card as HBO as had a fondness for him.

    Looks like Cotto has signed a 4 fight deal with Golden Boy? Seems like that's assuming a lot having not fought in a year and a half.

    And the first fight of the GBP deal is a nice easy tuneup on a very rare and valuable HBO date. Do GBP still have options on JMM? I have a feeling two of the three fights are going to be Mexico-Puerto Rico HBO moneyspinners against in house opposition or as good as and then Cotto rides off into the sunset. I can't see Fishnets putting him in against somebody like Charlo to get battered for no money

    I heard Marquez had injured himself again so he may be out for awhile longer. I can see him being one of Cotto's fights. Trout might be on the cards if he takes Hurd's belt.

    This is the real boxing match this weekend and should be what we will be discussing. It is on box nation.

    I didn't think we were allowed to talk about this fight.

    What do we know about Kamegai? I know he fought guererro a few years back but that's about it.

    I doubt it, I don't think it warrants staying up for, I'm normally up at about 5am so I'll record it and stick it on then.

    What other Boxing is on then?

    A tacky fight in a tacky down full of tacky fans for a tacky belt.

    He's here to make Cotto look strong and back in full force, which I think will be the case if Cotto gets the jab unpacked. Odd though as Cotto has signed new deal with GBP but earlier in week said he is for sure done by years end

    Yeah I read that he was going to have one last fight in December and then retire, I hope that is what he does, the bloke has had a great career and surely he's got himself enough money to live comfortably now.

    Should be an easy win for Cotto. Just looking at their fights with Gomez
    Suggests that Kamegai will do well to go the full 12 rounds let alone win.
