My team members are Hector Soto, who is a boxing promoter and Vice-president of Miguel Cotto Promotions. He runs all my business. He was the person that my father left in charge of it all. Bryan Perez is my right-hand man.

I was like any other kid: very normal, I can say. I just was a simple kid that came from a humble family and was taught by my father to be a family man and be committed to them. I stepped into boxing following my older brothers.

I am a really quiet person. I just like to be with my children and my family and being home. I live one day at a time, enjoying the best of life, just living.

The thing with professional boxing is you have to have the right promoter and the right fights. It is a cut-throat business.

You can know a person by the kind of desk he keeps. If the president of a company has a clean desk then it must be the executive vice president who is doing all the work.

I was involved in a bunch of school activities - I was a cheerleader, I was on the chess team, I was vice president of my class.
