"Puerto Rico has had many great champions -- Trinidad, Gomez, Ortiz, Benitez -- and I have always dreamed of being considered like them. Now, with two world titles, I hope that I'm on my way. I am happy and very proud of this win. I want to dedicate this win to all my fans, but especially to my mother Juana and my father Miguel Sr who have always being in my corner. I want to thank everyone who was behind me for this fight and also to the ones who did not believe in me, because they motivated me to work even harder"-WBA welterweight champion Miguel Cotto.
