Frank Curreri, WEC – Miguel Angel Torres and Miguel Angel Cotto have become sparring partners?
Not exactly, but Torres was in Tampa, Fla., for five days last week with Cotto’s camp as the WBO welterweight boxing champion trained for his mega-fight with Manny Pacquaio. Although the two fighting stars did not practice together, former WEC bantamweight kingpin Torres said he tested himself against several of Cotto’s professional sparring partners. Hungry to return to the top of MMA’s bantamweight food chain, Torres spoke in this exclusive WEC interview about how he fared in those supervised exchanges, the Dream Team of coaches he will be working with for his title quest, and how an alliance with Cotto figures into his future plans.
