Comments Thread For: Roach: Golovkin Must Raise PPV Numbers To Get Cotto

[aldo5408]

"Boxing fans" praying that Cotto Canelo winner duck their MIDDLEWEIGHT mandatory. So mad that people like to watch GGG fight lol
Scum of the Earth

Boxing fans pray giggi stops picking on a 153 lber

The logic sounds reasonable. No Ward fight for GGG since he doesn't draw, no GGG fight for Cotto since he doesn't draw. I like it.

Ggg on twitter asking his fans to boycott the cotto/canelo fight! Salty bunch of fkn ******* his 97 fans r...

Wait, is this a real thing?

oh you wanna play that game huh?

and it drew less than 20k lmao!!!!!

60k>>>>>>>>>>20k
225k>>>>>>>>>97k

GGG can't draw flies to poop!!!!! deal with it!

which they obviously dont care about considering hes not a true middleweight

Use logic. If they don't care, the fight with Geale would've been pointless. But Cotto chose "middleweight" in hopes that casual fans would not pay attention that Geale was drained. Why? The answer is simple: everybody hopes to lure Mayweather. While Cotto holds the belt, he can speculate that fighting for it somehow adds to Mayweather legacy, because he will be "6 divisions champ" rather than "5 divisions.."

Sometimes Freddie says something and I lose all respect for his opinion. This is one of those times. GGG too big, too strong and maybe, just maybe too good for Cotto (Cotto is my favourite fighter currently in boxing, I never root against him but Golovkin is probably just a bridge too far at this stage in his career). Freddie could just say something like that, no one would think less of Cotto, he has earned the right to pick and choose in his last year or so of prize fighting.

Yeah, he needs to reach that level of fame in the US and PPV-records that Delvin Rodriguez and Daniel Gaele had. I get it. It makes sense.

I agree, if Gennady just make the same dent in the US market as Geale did he may just stand a chance of snagging the fight.

Golovkin is stalking the strap they're fighting for with or without them.

We got it.

Cotto biggest joke in boxing period.

Will get trashed by Canelo and then beg for another payday/rematch once he reaches that B Level status again.

People defending this is why MMA is taking over boxing and people lost all respect for boxing and the fighters and the so called fans.

[Damn Wicked]

Oh jeez, Roach, stop that **** !

I'm a fan of Cotto but this is ridiculous.
If he doesn't want to fight GGG then go to junior middleweight or back to welterweight.
