Comments Thread For: Freddie Roach Confident: Cotto Can Hang With Golovkin

[MDPopescu]

Cotto is way too small for Golovkin. But Golovkin doesn't have to accept a catch weight to fight the "lineal" at the MW...
In short: this fight will not happen.

Cotto would feel GGG punches ,especially his left hook. END.

Can anyone on here name me one hall of fame class fighter that GGG has fought? Scratch that, name me just one great champion that he has fought. GGG could only hope to have as good of a career as Cotto, and the way to achieve that is by actually fighting great fighters. And as far as I'm concerned, win or lose, nobody over the last decade has fought a higher level of opposition than Cotto. The guy is a true champion that is always game to fight anyone.

Being that there seems to be a shortage on world class fighters in the middleweights right now, this fight only makes sense. Cotto isn't great at anything, but he's good at a lot of things. Golovkin on the other hand only seems to be great at one thing. It only seems natural that he step up to a world class fighter finally and stop rolling over tomato cans.

Seems to me you're great at being ******ed if you believe that.

And another thing I don't get, people keep saying Golovkin has never been hit hard to prove his chin, but then go on to say Stevens was landing flush shots. Which one is it?

Chavez sparred Golovkin at Wild Card. Roach knows very well what Golovkin can do.

I kind of hope they fight now so I can bump this later

I can't believe people think Cotto can beat Golovkin

It was a great win and all but Sergio looked shot to **** to say at least...

I would like to see both guys trade left hooks to the body and see who wilts first.

[jazluvr]

I don't ever see that happening. It's big mega fights from here on out, not high risk low reward type of fights.

Yeah, i can see your way of thinking. Still, wouldn't it be awesome to see his avenge all his losses, if he could accomplish that? Just wishful thinking, but you're probably right. Cotto wants the big money fights now most likely.

[DAN916]

Notice how Roach said "hang" and not "beat".

Yea but hang with him for 12 rounds and you might just win a decision.

Seems to me you're great at being ******ed if you believe that.

Go ahead and call me a ****** after he's actually fought ten world class fighters. Until then, I just see a guy that doesn't possess great speed or defense necessary to be a great fighter. You almost convinced me though with your brilliant articulation there champ.
