Gennady Golovkin is focused on getting a middleweight title unification bout against Miguel Cotto, who signed a new promotional deal with Roc Nation Sports on Thursday.

Abel Sanchez, Golovkin's trainer, said that they have a lot of options at this point after the 32-year-old Kazakh scored another dominating win to keep his unblemished record, but he insisted that Cotto is on top of their list.

Sanchez said in an interview with On The Ropes Boxing Radio that Golovkin, the reigning World Boxing Association and International Boxing Organization middleweight champion, is aching to add the World Boxing Council middleweight belt to his collection.

Cotto, who won the WBC middleweight title with a 10th round knockout win against Sergio Martinez last year, was required to defend his title against Golovkin, and Sanchez said that the Puerto Rican should give boxing fans what they are asking for -- a colossal title unification bout later this year.

"I want to see what he wants to see and what that is, is a unification fight," Sanchez said. "I think that the public deserves it, boxing itself deserves it. Right now his main focus is the WBC title, that title is held by Cotto. I don't know if Cotto will fight us this year, he's mandated to fight us by the WBC."

Cotto, who holds a 39-4 record with 32 knockout victories, has yet to name an opponent for his title defense, but is expected to do so in the coming weeks after signing a deal with Roc Nation Sports owned by music mogul Jay Z.

Cotto was recently linked to a possible fight against Timothy Bradley and Brandon Rios, but both fighters are expected to be out of consideration after the Puerto Rican champion severed ties with Top Rank Promotions.

According to reports, Cotto will likely defend his title in May or June. Sanchez said if Cotto fails to find an opponent, Golovkin is waiting on the wings and is ready to face the Caguas, Puerto Rico native.

"At this point Cotto doesn't have an opponent for May or June, so we're ready and prepared to make some kind of arrangement and make some kind of concession so that we can fight him in June," Sanchez said. "He wants to fight on the Puerto Rican parade or the Puerto Rican day, we're more than happy to accommodate."
