    So you give more importance to the corrupt alphabet organization belts? And to which particular fighter happens to be your favorite at a given time?

    Those aren't very objective criteria.

      You are giving importance to them. The WBC rated Cotto their #1 contender. You find that credible? Blatant trolling from you - is that all you do?

          GGG is like the Sonny Liston of the middleweights. Everybody knows he is the badest middleweight out there ... the lineal champ(cotto/martinez etc) is like floyd patterson. yeah they got the title but everbody knows what would happen if they got in the ring with GGG.

            Did you guys see Golovkin as Cotto was smashing Martinez in that first round? He was on his feet applauding and cheering Cotto lol. He knows Martinez was going to keep ducking him so we were all counting on Cotto beat that sissy boy.

            Martinez got humiliated by a 154 pounder tonight, just as I predicted. WAR COTTOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!**** YESSSS!!!!!!

              Unless Floyd offers Miguel Cotto a great purse package, I think Cotto vs. Canelo will be next if Canelo gets past Lara which I think he will. You have to think Cotto vs. Canelo is a big money fight in December and I think HBO will pony up the money to make it happen. I think a catch-weight of 155lbs or 156lbs shows Cotto he'd be ready for Canelo.

              I personally hope that Mayweather vs. Cotto II happens as Freddie Roach is training a different man who came in and fought Floyd while giving him some big problems. It'll be interesting and don't be surprised if Soliman goes out and fights Sergio Martinez next, he'll want a name and I'm sure Sergio wants to get back into the title picture immediately. The whole Middleweight division should be happy with this shake-up.

                wait, why be sorry for him that martinez lost?

                who is to say cottoo doesnt face him.

                martinez clearly ducked him anyway so they have same chance to fight

                  GGG will basically have to offer to fight Cotto for free to have a chance of getting the fight. But then cotto does have big balls so you never know. But imo roach knows cotto would get demolished by GGG

                    'no question' ha! you're really revelling in last night's result, aren't you?
