סן ג'ואן, פורטו ריקו (מאי 31, 2018) – Future Hall of Fame boxer מיגל קוטו believes that, for him, promoting is even more challenging than fighting.

 

 

 

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

“We have been in the promoting business for more than 13 שנים, combining both roles (fighter and promoter),” Cotto said. “עכשיו, 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. כלוחם, 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, יוני 16ה בתשלום-לפי-צפייה, live from the Coliseo de Puerto Rico Center in Hato Rey, פורטו ריקו.

“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, טיטו טרינידד, וילפרדו גומז, הקטור קמאצ'ו, וילפרדו בניטז 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.”
