If Cotto doesnt vacate or get stripped......

OnePunch109911y ago

Since HBO mandated that they wouldnt buy this fight unless a letter of intent was signed for Cotto-Canelo next, it is relatively certain that Cotto is NOT going to honor the WBC ruling that he must face GGG immediately after his voluntary defense against Geale. If the WBC backtracks and does not strip Cotto, I hope GGG takes the WBC interim belt and urinates on it on youtube

This has nothing to do with PBC. If it was a Haymon fight, Cotto would be fighting K9 at a catchweight with no title on the line. :skull: Lol... I'm just messing with you :wave:

Where are all the PBC haters that love the sanctioning bodies.... This is the stuff that the idiot pbc haters love.... They don't want boxing to change.. Have the champ not fight ggg, instead catchweight a guy who just lost to barker, and slaughtered by GGG... And have it on premium networks so we have to pay more to watch.. This is what ass clown posters like barcham support

11y ago

That saying don't hate the player, hate the game applies to the sanctioning bodies. I'm a fan of GGG, but his career is not revolving around Cotto.

11y ago

Wbc is about that paper they could give a fck about GGG.

11y ago

And GGG probably Spanked that ass. Yeah he impregnated it, Cotto had ass babies. Wee turdlets.

They trained in Big Bear together before... wrong. And GGG probably Spanked that ass.

hard to do, considering Cotto wont even get in the same area code as GGG...... They trained in Big Bear together before... wrong.

I hope GGG beats the Hell out of Cotto. Seeing as Cotto will no longer fight at MSG because of Jay Z, GGG might get a solid turnout at the Barclays from what I presume. GGG has a solid fanbase. hard to do, considering Cotto wont even get in the same area code as GGG......
