WelshDevilRob Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 By Gabriel F. Cordero In the last hours there has been information about a possible fight between former world champion Juan Manuel Marquez and current WBC middleweight champion Miguel Cotto. Although there is no official statement from either party, Marquez’ trainer Ignacio Beristain said the bout would seem an excellent choice provided it is agreed at a weight between the welter and super welter weight categories. Cotto recently surprised fight fans on his personal Twitter account when he informed that he wouldn’t fight in December but will appear to the first quarter of 2015. Márquez continues to mull over his boxing future with his family, but a source confirmed to Fightnews.com that this weekend Marquez would be meeting with his promoter Fernando Beltran in Mexico City.

Maybe Golovkin too. I'd imagine you could get 400-1 odds of this fight never happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know JMM seems to be getting bulkier these days and Cotto isn't a true Middleweight but what type of lb range could this fight realistically be made at? I agree it's just 'smoke and mirrors'.
