Listen, whether you want to criticize the catchweights or not, looking at this makes me appreciate even more what Pac his done in terms of moving up in weight and always beating guys were way bigger than him. IF this happens, I see it going the route of Oscar/B-Hop, especially since Cotto's signature is that off digging to the body. Bradley's got heart, but I fear that the Provo fight took more out of him than most would say or think looking back on it. I would rather see Cotto face someone a little bigger, but hey, at least he's fighting and not letting that title collect dust. Now look, I'm as big a Cotto fan on here as anybody, but for the love of God, after this, he's got three options:
1.) Make the Canelo fight happen (assuming he gets by Kirkland, who I am not sleeping on at all, ESPECIALLY since he'll be working with Ann Wolfe again)
2.) Fight GGG (since he IS the mandatory WBC challenger after all)
3.) Or just vacate and move back down to '54 and call it a day.

Dog this particular catchweight is some pac margarito ridiculous bs. Tim looked fantastic against chaves if you didn't catch that fight.

Thanks for that update, breh. Looks like Kirkland is toast, now.
Another potential curveball to the Bradley/Cotto fight. I'd LOVE to see Lara fight and beat Cotto just to fukk with Cinnabon.

It isn’t clear who Cotto will fight next, but the biggest fights available to him are no longer controllable situations. To throw a wrench into the situation, it seems like we can add another opponent into the potential equation for Cotto as ESPNDeportes.com reports that Erislandy Lara is being considered as Cotto’s next opponent.
Lara has been tentatively scheduled for April or May, but his manager Luis De Cubas Jr. tells ESPN Deportes that Cotto is now the primary focus, and they are waiting for word from Al Haymon, Lara’s advisor.
“Lara was waiting to fight in April or May. What we’re working on now is the biggest fight, that is Cotto,” De Cubas Jr. told ESPN Deportes.
It isn’t clear how realistic a matchup between Cotto-Lara is but it would be a huge curveball if Cotto ended up facing Lara, especially after the other potential blockbuster matchups that fell through. I doubt that this fight is a real possibility, but De Cubas Jr. seems to have things figured out and it is obvious that he has put serious effort into figuring out the nuances necessary to strike a deal with the Cotto camp.
Without a real knowledge of Cotto’s preference, De Cubas Jr. seems willing to accept Lara’s role as the B-side and flexible to the unpredictable demands that may come. One example is deciding which division the fight takes place in and the various titles that would be on the line depending on the agreed upon weight class. Lara is the WBA “regular” junior middleweight champion, and Cotto is the WBC middleweight champion.
De Cubas Jr. is open to any scenario that gets Lara in the ring with Cotto, whether that means Lara is defending his title or fighting for Cotto’s belt at 160lbs. He is confident that he can get the WBA commission on board.
Cotto is definitely calling the shots for any negotiations with Lara, but Al Haymon is the only man that can truly make this a reality for Lara.
“It’s what we’re working right now with Al Haymon,” De Cubas Jr. told ESPN Deportes later in the interview. “We want to finalize a fight with Cotto. It is one of the best fighters in the world and we know that would be a great war.”
There has been speculation that Cotto could fight Timothy Bradley if the Mayweather bout is a no go, but De Cubas Jr. believes that fight is beneath Cotto.
“When I look at that (potential Bradley fight), I see it as an easy fight for Cotto. With Lara, it is more difficult.”
De Cubas Jr. said that if Cotto is unavailable then a unification title fight with Demetrius Andrade is possible, and a fight with Joshua Clottey is also being considered.
