Miguel Cotto was Co-Promoting his first nationally televised card. The shining moment never came and the night turned into a bad episode of Jerry Springer.Well...at least Miguel tried to maintain some degree of professionalism, it's a shame Jose had to air out their problems like that.
Evangalista attacked Miguel? Why?
From the looks of things, Evangelista keep yelling at Jose from ringside. From what I hear, Miguel went over to calm Evangelista down and Evangelista went crazy and physically attacked Miguel.
According to the commentators, Evangelista was telling Jose to do one thing and Jose was doing another. Evangelista was getting frustrated and at the end of every round, Evangelista would load up with the sponge full of water and splatter Jose's face with it. Jose got mad at this and he was also getting mad at the way his uncle was talking to him.Thanks CC!
Still, why did Jose go off like that I doubt he would have been in more trouble then in the diaz fight.
He just snapped huh
No reason to elbow your own Uncle though. Why did the Uncle attack Miguel? Did they say something? Jose was saying something to one of them at ringside before Miguel had to be restrained.
I think its very lucky they(Cotto an Judah) aren't fighting next week and they(The Cottos) have about 2 or 3 weeks to solve this.
Miguel Cotto said he would quit boxing if his uncle was not in his corner. Don't be surprised if Cotto/Judah fight get's called off.
I am sure the Jose/Evangelista feud goes back a little further than this.
