Alvarez isn't going to go to MSG to fight Cotto. He isn't going to dictate to Cotto where to go either. Cotto is a very small JMW. Everyone is giving him a hard time for fight Njikam, a lower top 10 MW, but Guerrero fights Aydin, a lower top 10 WW, and gets praised for showing guts and heart. The hypocrasy on this site is unreal sometimes.

And I think GBP has more faith to let Alvarez fight Cotto before Floyd. Alvarez-Cotto is already a huge event, and if Alvarez were to beat Cotto, it makes Mayweather-Alvarez much much much bigger for May 2013.

Originally posted by 4Corners View PostChavez-Sergio winner isn't really realistic for December 1st, unless Chavez wins. Sergio only fihgts every 5-7 months, so he won't fight until Feb-Apr 2013 probably. If Chavez wins, he could fight 2 1/2 months later against Cotto, but I'm sure Chavez is headed to 168 win or lose after Sergio.
Dmitry Pirog
Geale-Sturm winner
Golovkin-Proksa winner
Hassan N'Jikam
That's the order in how meanignful each fight would be. I don't see why he only wants to fight N'Jikam at 160, not the other 3 possibilities.

Originally posted by 4Corners View PostGuerrero jumped 2 weight classes to beat Aydin, and didn't get all that much praise. Most say it's just a solid win over a Top 10 WW, nothing more or less, which is what it is. It'll be the same for Cotto if he fights and beats N'Jikam. Most are just saying Cotto, if he indeed wants to win a title at MW, should target fights like Pirog/Golovkin-Proksa winner/Geale-Sturm winner, instead of N'Jikam. It would mean more if he did that.
And I think GBP has more faith to let Alvarez fight Cotto before Floyd. Alvarez-Cotto is already a huge event, and if Alvarez were to beat Cotto, it makes Mayweather-Alvarez much much much bigger for May 2013.
As for Njikam, I think Cotto knows he has size limitations and going to MW is pushing it. All of these guys will have a significant size advantage on him and he knows it. I think to test the waters at this new weight, he is going for what he sees as a legitimate measuring stick. If he beats Njikam and Floyd-Canelo meet up next year, taking both of them off the table, he can go for Martinez-Chavez Jr. winner, Pirog, Golovkin-Proska winner, or Sturm-Geale winner.
