By Dan Ambrose: 33-year-old Miguel Cotto (38-4, 31 KO’s) is reportedly considering an offer of $15 million to face 38-year-old WBC middleweight champion Sergio Martinez (51-2, 28 KO’s) on June 7th in a pay-per-view fight in Madison Square Garden, in New York, according to espndeportes.
The offer of $15 million, if it’s a legit one, from Top Rank, beats the the $10 million offer made by Golden Boy Promotions for Cotto to fight former WBA/WBC light middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (42-1-1, 30 KO’s) on March 8th on Showtime PPV. It’s still unknown if Golden Boy will choose to top the offer made by Top Rank to set up the Canelo-Cotto fight.
