Reigning WBC Middleweight World Champion Miguel Cotto who has a record of 40-4 with 33 knockouts, has arrived in Los Angeles to begin training camp at the Wild Card Boxing Club with Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach ahead of his showdown against former WBC and WBA Super Welterweight World Champion Saul ?Canelo? Alvarez (45-1-1, 32 KOs) at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas on November 21.
The WBC website reported on what Cotto and Roach had to say about the start of camp:
MIGUEL COTTO: WBC, Ring Magazine and Lineal Middleweight World Champion said ?I am more than ready to get to work and am fully confident that the plan Freddie Roach has in place for our team is going to ensure that I am prepared to lock in this victory on November 21.?
On the other hand Hall of Fame Trainer, Seven-Time Trainer of the Year Award Winner and Trainer of Miguel Cotto remarked about the energy at the Wild Card Gym where four of the top fighters from the famed ALA Gym in the Philippines headed by WBO light flyweight champion Donnie ?Ahas? Nietes who is scheduled to spar with two division world champion Brian Viloria among others.
Roach remarked ?The energy at Wild Card is at an all-time high. Miguel is one of the hardest working men I know and he did not waste any time getting into the ring with me. I know that we have the tools we need for a successful training camp that will put Miguel in the best position possible to beat Canelo.?
