A possible silver lining is it may free up Froch to fight Golovkin especially since HBO made it look like he's scared of him with Carl's pride he probably won't be able to sit back and let that stand. HBO baiting him and doing their best JMM impression.

F*ck Jr!!! I want Canelo or Golovkin!!
Even at 180 on fight night I think Golovkin would break the lazy/spoiled pothead's face. Fundamentally speaking, Golovkin is a superior fighter and it'd be somewhat interesting to see how many monster shots from GGG Chavez could eat before succumbing to the punishment.
I would pay for that fight just to solely see the matchup between GGG's power vs Chavez Jr's iron chin.

Bad match up for Cotto imo. Chavez is huge and if he makes the weight, he'll come to the ring at 180 easily. Unless Freddie demands a fight night weigh in clause, Chavez' size wins this.
You said it yourself, HBO is making him a star, meaning he is not a star just yet.
Chavez/Cotto is a huge PPV event, Cotto/GGG or Chavez/GGG are not. It's not rocket science.
You would be happy suckered into paying for (undeserving) Chavez Jr. - Cotto PPV fight? And if Golovkin is not a star, how is going to be one if he doesn't fight and beat those guys?
Who the **** told you that. They were going to make Chavez Jr vs Golovkin but problem with occured with Chavez Jr.'s contract.
HBO making Golovkin a star, he bought in over 5k seats tonight and getting millions of views.
Why should you care about their money, I only care about fights as a boxing fan.

They desperately try to get back their lead position in Mexico. They know that Cotto wants to fight with Canelo and they know that Canelo is already a bigger draw in Mexico than Chavez Jr.
These guys are trying to bring in the most money. At this point Golovkin is a high risk, low reward fight. Why can't you guys understand that?

Figures.
Chavez Jr's entire career has been built on picking on smaller men, so it fits his profile. Of course, that's assuming he can stop toking up long enough to pass a drug test.
Chavez is going to look ill at 160, he's not beating Cotto in that kinda shape. The match-up itself is stupid. One guy that is too small for MW fighting a guy who's too big at MW for the lineal title.
They must be paying cotto a boatload to fight Chavez jr..
The size advantage would be massive and this would end up looking like cotto-marg 1
No way Chavez jr makes 160 without diuretics
How the hell Chavez Jr going to make the weight? I don't think the fight will get made. No way Cotto will fight Chavez Jr if he comes overweight.
Small chance of this fight happening in my eyes. Just tell either of two to fight Golovkin, especially Cotto.
