COTTO L.A. MEDIA DAY!


PhilBoxing.com




Los Angeles, CA:- Miguel Cotto arrived at the new Pound-4-Pound Gym along La Cienega Blvd., just south of Beverly Hills to keep his appointment with the media.

And, he came well ahead of the scheduled time of 12:00 high noon.

Cotto arrived in a limo with his trainers and a very small entourage and immediately started preparing for his workout.

Cotto’s demeanor tells us that he is dead serious in his preparation for the biggest fight of his life. There was no clowning around even with the Latino media people he recognized. Only polite “como ‘esta” and a small smile.

Cotto appears extremely fit contrary to certain published observations in the media. Although he did not reply when asked how much he presently weigh, he appeared to be somewhere close to the fight weigh of 145 lbs. Therefore, Team Pacquiao can forget about getting a million bucks for every pound that Cotto will weigh above 145 lbs when they officially step on the scales a day prior to the fight.

Cotto flies straight back to Las Vegas after the LA presscon to continue his training leading to the fight on the 14th.
