24/7 EPISODE 2 - COTTO:

HBO's award-winning franchise "24/7" returned tonight with episode 2 of "24/7 Mayweather/Cotto", the all-access reality series following undefeated pound-for-pound champion Floyd Mayweather and WBA jr. middleweight champion Miguel Cotto as they prepare for their May 5 Cinco de Mayo showdown at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Episode 2 was not short on quotes from both fighters. "He's like a computer, you know? He has his program and he knows what it will take to get the victory. Pedro is a hard worker. He's a guy who, no matter what, he's still learning. I create a lot of confidence with him and I'm pretty sure, until the end of my career, I'm not going to move anywhere else," Cotto would comment. Check out what else he had to say in episode 2 of 24/7 Mayweather/Cotto.

MIGUEL COTTO:

He's [Cotto's trainer Diaz] a pretty loud guy. I don't really like that, but I have to work with him. It's his way to work and I have to be with him on this part.

He's like a computer, you know? He has his program and he knows what it will take to get the victory.

Pedro is a hard worker. He's a guy who, no matter what, he's still learning. I create a lot of confidence with him and I'm pretty sure, until the end of my career, I'm not going to move anywhere else.

The most beautiful process of our training camp is leaving with them...Outside the gym, more like a family.

I bring them [his family] a house with boxing. I bring them everything they can have in life; it's because of boxing. I know they can realize that; they're going to be pretty thankful with boxing.

Back in 2009, we moved to Tampa for training, to fight...I asked him [Bryan Perez] to move with me to the same bed. Since then, he doesn't want to sleep with anyone.

He [Perez] makes everything for me...he try to make me feel the most comfrotable he can make me feel. It's good to know you have a brother on your side.

Loyalty means people who you can trust; people who you know they gonna watch your back no matter what.
