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

No Freddie! Cotto vs Canelo for the Middleweight Title. They both are gonna come in well under 160. Have a 157 weight limit if anything and get the fight done.

fanboys want canelo to pull out of the Lara fight but 2 months ago were calling him a duck and coward and a fabricated fighter lol and then some of yall are saying no it should be at 154 because canelo would be nice and drained hah what fckng fanboys

Canelo should move up to 160 regardless if he wins or loses to Trout. Target Quillin if Cotto doesn't want it at middleweight (which is a bich move by Cotto and Roach to be honest)

Come on Roach you can't have your guy hold the ****ing Lineal title and just not defend it.. unless you guys are vacating it then I can understand.

Wishful thinking but Canelo is not Martinez and Canelo will have some leverage against diva cotto. If Canelo doest want it at 154 it's not going to happen at that weight,the lowest I see is 158

Martinez walked second and was announced second as well, so the "Diva" label isn't as compelling as it was in the build-up to the fight. But you're right: Canelo clearly has more leverage than Martinez ever could. Just hoping Canelo takes care of the business in front of him. Sure -- he and Cotto could still have a big fight in December even if he loses to Lara, but it will be pretty anti-climactic if that's what happens.

Line both Cotto + Canelo up for GGG at the same evening, either Tag Team or one after another.

You really think GGG is some type of God huh? When asked who's the best fighter he's ever been in the ring with he said canelo alvarez

anybody who wants canelo to pull out of the fight and fight miguel for no title at 154 lame....

Canelo vs Cotto at 154 would be bigger than an alphabet title anyway. The sanctioning bodies have devalued their titles so badly that being a 'world champion' is more a marketing tool than being something people consider a major achievement. So I don't think no title being on the line matters in the slightest, it is what it is, two top 5 guys in what would be a highly anticipated and well supported fight.

Middleweight belt, fight at 160

I hate catchweights.

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?

Roach is doing alot of talking these days.
