Kellerman was just making the point that its no need to rush him into fights with monsters like Paul or Sergio. Cotto can still make a name and a living for hiself fighting lower level fighters.

Thats all he was saying.
Yeah, but we all know Arum's going to push for a Margarito or Pacquiao rematch - keeping the money in-house.
Kellerman was merely, I think, implying Cotto winning a title at 154, doesn't mean he is a 154-pounder, he isn't, he doesn't need to start fight Martinez...he could, but it's not expected of him, in Kellerman's opinion.
