Dan Rafael chat wrap 8/29:

- No official opponent for Cotto yet. Lee is being considered.
- If Bradley doesn't land the Cotto fight, TR doesnt have anything for him immediately. :mjlol:

- Kirkland still the frontrunner to get Canelo next. >:blessed:

- Good chance Victor Ortiz may never fight again. > I hope he has one fight left in him because I need to see Ortiz vs Rios

- Roach said the number 1 fight he wants for Manny is Danny Garcia...but cannot be made. > Thats fukked up because that would be a good fight

- HBO has shown no interest in doing something like ShoExtreme. >wasn't Boxing After Dark originally serving that function for HBO before the network let it fall off?

- Korobov has signed for the Quillin fight. Quillin has not. He is sensing some Haymon funny biz.> Dammit, Haymon!

True spit, who would you take in a fight between cotto bradley? Since it'd be for the 160lb title I'd imagine Timmy would come in around 154 and Cotto 158, with both dropping a few lbs. I think that'd be a hell of a fight, Cotto would have big problems with Timmy's speed and stamina. Desert storm has an iron chin but idk if he could take basically 154lb shots
Bum Ass Tim Bradley has no shot of beating Miguel Cotto.

I'm interested in Bradley's next opponent as well. If you look at his time at 147, he's only fought one legit WW in Abregu. I really look at him as a 140 lber who fights @ 147 if the fight is right. Pacquaio, Marquez, & Provodnikov are all really small guys like him.

I can see him continuing to fight guys that move up from 140. A guy like Cotto is a money fight, so he's worth it. I don't see him ever fighting legit WW's out there unless they just bring a lot of money to the table.
