SAN JUAN, Пуерто-Ріко (Травня 31, 2018) – Future Hall of Fame boxer Мігель Котто believes that, for him, promoting is even more challenging than fighting.

 

 

 

The living legend retired last December with an incredible 41-6 (33 КО) pro record, in which he became the only Puerto Rican to capture world titles in four different weights classes, light welterweight through middleweight.

 

 

 

Cotto was 20-6 (16 КО) в боях титул чемпіона світу, 16-6 (12 КО) versus present or past world champions during his illustrious 17-year pro career, including victories against Cesar Bazan, Carlos Maussa,Lovemore N’dou, Рендалл Бейлі,ДеМаркус Корлі, Ricardo Torres,Полі Маліньяджі, Carlos Quintana,Заб Джуда, Шейн Мослі, Joshua Clottey, Юрій Форман, Рікардо Майорга, Antonio Margarito, Серхіо Мартінес і Гіл.

 

 

 

“We have been in the promoting business for more than 13 роки, combining both roles (fighter and promoter),” Cotto said. “Зараз, we are able to give more attention to our fighters in terms of training.

 

 

 

“Promoting is more complex because there are challenges regarding every facet of an event. Як боєць, you concentrate solely on the fight, not all the details involved in promoting a successful event.”

 

 

 

Cotto Promotions is presenting La Batalla: Acosta vs. Buitrago, along with H2 Entertainment, in association with DIRECTV Puerto Rico, Червень 16ї на оплату за перегляд, live from the Coliseo de Puerto Rico Center in Hato Rey, Пуерто-Ріко.

“This pay-per-view card is a very important opportunity for is to showcase a great event,” Cotto added, “as well as a perfect scenario for Acosta to show the world who he is as world champion.

 

 

 

“It is a pleasure for me to give back to boxing what boxing gave me. Seeing our brand grow and fighter development let us know that we are doing things the right way. Our goal is to continue developing the best talent in Puerto Rico and building their brands and legacies.”

 

 

 

The 27-year-old Acosta is on a mission to become a Puerto Rican boxing icon like Cotto, Tito Trinidad, Вільфредо Гомес, Ектор Камачо, Wilfredo Benitez and so many other greats from this fertile island.

 

 

 

Acosta’s success brings back fond memories for Cotto to when he was in a similar situation as a young world champion. “He does bring back memories for me and he proves that hard work pays off,” Cotto concluded. “Tito is living the dream every boxer has when they choose to box as a living. Now is the most challenging chapter for him to expand his reign and build his legacy.”
