Felix “Tito” Trinidad, during a photo shoot at the Wifredo Gomez boxing Gym in Puerto Rico, predicts that Miguel Cotto will become the next Puerto Rican fighter to become a three division champion by beating WBA belt-holder Yuri Foreman on June 5 at New York’s Yankee Stadium.
Cotto won titles at 140 and 147-pounds. Foreman is Cotto’s first challenge at 154. Wilfred Benitez, Wilfredo Gomez, Wilfredo Vazquez Sr., Hector Camacho and Trinidad are all Puerto Rican fighters who have won championships in at least three divisions.
“Yuri Foreman is a good fighter. But there is no doubt that Cotto will be the stronger man in the ring. He definitely should beat Foreman and become another Puerto Rican to win a world title in a third division,” said Tito to El Nuevo Dia.
