Miguel Cotto vs. Ricardo Mayorga, billed as Relentless, was a boxing light middleweight fight for the WBA (Super) light middleweight championship.

The bout was held on March 12, 2011, at MGM Grand Garden Arena, in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States.

After the Manny Pacquiao fight, Cotto moved to the light middleweight division. On June 5, 2010, he fought against Israeli undefeated boxer Yuri Foreman at Yankee Stadium in New York City.

Cotto ended up knocking Foreman down with a signature left hook to the body in the ninth round claiming the WBA light middleweight title, his fourth overall in three different weight divisions.

After his bout with Shane Mosley, Mayorga took a period of inactivity. He was scheduled to fight undefeated junior-middleweight prospect Alfredo Angulo on February 14, 2009 on the undercard of Nate Campbell’s title defense against Ali Funeka. Mayorga withdrew from the fight, citing injuries to his ribs. However, his promoter, Don King, stated that Mayorga pulled out ten days before the bout after his demands for a higher purse were not met.

On December 17, 2010, the Nicaraguan boxer fought Michael Walker and defeated him by TKO in the ninth round, ending a 27 months layoff.
