Puerto Rican warrior Miguel Cotto is not bothered by his country's boxing icon Felix "Tito" Trinidad's choice of winner between him and Mexican rising star Saul "Canelo" Alvarez.

The retired legendary fighter picked "Canelo" over his fellow Puerto Rican, Cotto in the Nov. 21 showdown at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Boxing Scene reported.

"In my personal opinion I think it's a tough fight but 'Canelo' has most of the advantages in this fight. I think he will win," said the recently inducted boxer into the Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame.

Trinidad, a boxing Hall of Famer, even stated that Alvarez is "younger and stronger than Cotto," the site noted. These advantages may be the same ones that could pose as threats to Cotto, enough for him to lose his World Boxing Council middleweight crown to the 25-year-old "Canelo."

Yet, these statements from the former three-division titlist did not appear to unnerve 34-year-old Cotto, informed another article from Boxing Scene.

"Anyone can go with whatever boxer they want. I'm not going to lose any sleep over [Trinidad's pick]. I am not concerned. Felix can choose whoever he wants to win," Cotto said.

Cotto, was able to maintain his cool over this issue, and it was just right that he should not be affected by it as it would only lose his confidence in training for the upcoming fight. Although Trinidad may be Puerto Rico's "most popular boxer of all-time," as described by Boxing Scene, Cotto proved his worth in his career.

New York Daily News noted that Cotto was the first Puerto Rican native ever to acquire four titles in different divisions.

What's good about Cotto is he knows that he has achieved much in his boxing career, enough for him not to dwell on such criticisms or even the outcome of his title defense against "Canelo" this fall, as long as he had put on his best, noted the New York news outlet.

"I feel like I faced everyone in my life. 'Canelo' can't define my career because my career is already made. I said before at the age of 30 I was going to be out of boxing. I'm 34 right now. I'm going to be 35 in October (29th). I don't know. I feel good. I still feel confidence in my boxing skills," the boxer dubbed "Junito" said.

Even "Canelo" knows Cotto's value as a fighter, which makes the young Mexican eager to beat him. "Canelo" states that his ticket to a legend status is through his victory over a great fighter like Cotto, according to a separate report from Boxing Scene.
