Comments Thread For: Roach Sees Canelo For Cotto at 154, Unsure of 160

[SeekDaGreat]

Roach is no fool. He knows the brutality Cotto will face from a 160lb Alvarez.

This fight wont happen at least not this year, people forget Canelo tried to shyt team Cotto in the first negotiations and then completely left Cotto out to dry after his Trout loss, there's bad blood at play here, expect Cotto to bend him all the way over, from the money, the split, ppv revenue, to venue, not to mention I expect a 152-154 catch weight, this will get ugly

No its not. How is 155 junior middleweight? The JMW limit is 154. Anything over 154 is officially a middleweight.

That is true. 154.1 to 160 is middleweight. 147.1 to 154 is welterweight. Most of these catchweight fights are within the weight class limits. Both Floyd and PAC has done this and I see nothing wrong with it if the fighter signs the contract.

Just having some fun with the Cotto fanclub who suddenly think Cotto has become an unstoppable monster because he got Martinez at a perfect time. If these guys really think so high of Cotto (Middleweight #1 etc) they shouldnt have a problem with him fighting GGG? What are they afraid of?

I'm sorry bruh but u have no right to be calling out "Cotto fanclub". Wheter it is at 160 or 154 people want to see Cotto/Canelo. PR / Mexico, the hype for that fight could get really crazy. You think ggg is an "unstoppable monster" because he's been beating B Level fighters at best, "Cotto fanclub" should be calling YOU out, not the other way around.

And to the people that think Saul can't make 154 anymore, please stop it! he is a 23 year old athlete that is more than capable to put in the work to make the weight. Saul himself has made it known that he can do it, what would he know though, he is no NSB poster hehe

Now we know why Pacquiao is called the Catchweight king. Roach asks for these ****** demands that make it difficult for the opposing fighter. Roach needs to let his fighters fight fighters at their comfortable weight.

right.

just because fighters dont max out the weight doesnt mean they arent in their confines.

Its not a hard concept to grasp.

damn team cotto trying to drain my boy canelo

typical

[thatdudespits]

Because they can both easily fight at 160 for Cotto's middleweight belt. I doubt Canelo even wants to fight at 154 anymore

If he didn't want to compete at 154 anymore he wouldnt have signed this fight at 155.

The hypocrisy of Mayweather fans.

Canelo vs lara is at 155 canelo angulo was at 154 then changed to 155

Cotto came in at 155 to win a middleweight title

Why not make the fight at 155-160

Roach is scared for cottos health a la mayweather
