Miguel Cotto will attempt to win a world title at a fourth weight class, when he challenges WBC middleweight champion Sergio Martinez in June.

Three-weight world champion Miguel Cotto will move even further up the divisions when he challenges WBC middleweight title holder Sergio Martinez in June.

Cotto ended a two-fight losing streak when he beat Delvin Rodriguez in impressive fashion back in October, while Martinez has had to get up off the canvas to defend his WBC belt in his last three fights.

The 33-year-old challenger is looking forward to the fight, which will be held in Madison Square Garden, a venue at which he has had much success in the past.

"I am very happy to be back again in my second home, Madison Square Garden in New York, to once again make history in front of my fans," Cotto told reporters.

"I will be ready and prepared to do whatever it takes to bring the WBC middleweight title of the world to my country of Puerto Rico."

The fighters have agreed to a catchweight of 159lb, just one pound under the usual middleweight limit.
