Now that cotto has had his fun beating up cripples,and raisins,can his stop his little game and vacate the belt? The fact that he weighed in at 153.6 shows that he's not a middleweight,and the fact that he himself said that he's not a middleweight strengthens the idea. If he vacates the title and fights canelo at a catchwieght of 155,with no title on the line,if would be perfectly fine,and nobody would think badly of him. But if he's going to deliberately treat the middleweight strap like some kind of toy,then he should be forced to fight Golovkin,and take his beating like a man. And the golovkin fight should be at 160,none of this catch weight crap. If you need a catchwieght in order to defend your belt,then you're no damn champion.
I hope he does give up the belt, simply so you sandy vagina Nancy's will quit crying. Give GGG the belt, then he can quit calling out smaller guys, and focus on guys his size, or god forbid, guys bigger than him.
There's two reasons why cotto got the 160 lb belt. And neiter of those reasons was to make a campaign at 160. Your minds are blown right now, I know....
Leave him alone and let him live, he just ko'd and dominated Geale with ease just like GGG....BUT WHILE WEIGHING 153
That's what he weighed in. He didn't weigh that during fight night, obviously. I'd estimate he was about 160-163. Still far below Geale.
Seriously you guys are not seeimg this threw team cotto eyes....with this belt...he could bait mayweather to come up and rematch him ...the belt also makes cotto the A Side against conelo no matter what weight class they fight in
Why should he drop his main bargaining chip just to satisfied Team GGG and his fans?
I understand why he's holding on to the belt, but it doesn't mean I have to like it. Everything from 140-160 is done with Floyd in mind and that's why I look forward to his retirement. Going up to 160lb to face Cotto is something I would imagine Mayweather doing because he only takes calculated risks. This was my fear before Cotto/Martinez even happened.

Stop whining bro :bottle:
You are a good poster, probably the only nonbiased Cotto fan on here(well as unbiased as a fan can be), but he is right. Cotto literally said he is not a middleweight and if he doesn't fight GGG that is honestly ok with me, but he shouldn't be holding the lineal title hostage. Cotto vs Canelo can sell without the title on the line.
How is it a joke? He's still the best fighter in the planet
On mythical PFP lists, in reality the heavyweight champion is the best fighter on the planet. Weight classes are to give little people a chance.
I don't mind Floyd v Cotto at 155. It's a good fight, and both lose to Golovkin via KO anyway, no belt will persuade people otherwise.
i'm not a middleweight....fights canelo for middleweight belt. most people don't like hypocrisy but you might be the first.
Floyd isn't a jmw but still has 3 fights there. Cotto floyd would be a big fight. We know cotto isn't gonna fight golovkin and when he takes step aside money he'll have no one to blame but himself for not being undisputed
Yes more cotto threads. If he fights some scrub next then yea he should drop it but if he fights canelo or floyd next I see no reason to drop it

But he's not a middleweight,hanz. Mayweather is barely a superwelter,so him fighting for the lineal midweight strap would be a joke. Legit question,has mayweather ever weighed more than 155 on fight night?

Two guys who aren't MWs, fighting for the MW title. What a ****in joke. I wonder if that ridiculous fight would take place at a CW too.
