Comments Thread For: Roach: Cotto's Top Choice is Canelo, GGG Possible

[TLC8]

I dont just watch fighters and Ejaculate on what they do well like apparently you do, i pay equal attention sometimes more attention to the flaws and things that can be exposed. you see the reality of fighting is that flaws only matter when they can be exposed, GGG has not fought anyone who can take advantage of those flaws that does not mean those flaws are not there. be a boxing fan not a FN idiot. have a conversation that adds to the discourse or dont address me.

LOL!!! You think you're quite a student of the game then. Maybe you can get a good paying job in one of these guys corners and take their careers to greater heights; have you thought of that?!!? Lol!

Cotto would get knock out in both fights 3 to 5 rounds against GGG and 10 rounds to Canelo he will do the famous Knee position against Canelo and he will be carried out in a stretcher against GGG

Cotto so fast he got away Margs right? Like you said that ggg has that power And first solid punch ggg lands it's going to be night night for cotto

yes he kicked Margs as for 9 rounds the fight wasnt even close, then many believe the plaster hardened.

Great predictions

Cotto would be crazy to take on Golovkin because fighting Canelo is much safer and Cotto has a good shot at winning while there's virtually little chance he'd win against Golovkin. Fighting Canelo will also bring in a bigger paycheck for Cotto without a doubt than fighting Golovkin. I think more casual fans would be more interested in a Canelo vs Cotto matchup anyway and it would bring in big pay-per-view numbers and the arena will probably sell out too. Golovkin is more known amongst serious boxing fans and there's not much reason for Cotto who has been a superstar in the sport for a long time to take on the new kid on the block who ****s harder than anyone Cotto has ever faced. Even though they're virtually close in age, looking at both of them will reveal that biological age and physical age are two different things. Cotto looks like a battered boxer older than his age suggests and Golovkin is 32 but looks and fights like he's in his 20s. I bet most people would think Golovkin is younger than Canelo who just turned 24 years old this month. Cotto has a better chance against Canelo and fighting Golovkin at this stage of his career would be brave but foolish.

Doest matter who won or lost point is ggg will have no problem keeping up with cotto

You are being generous more like cotto gets stopped in less then 3rds

Could be. The point is these same Cotto lovers are the same Sergio lovers that thought Sergio would turn back time with his hand speed, athleticism, and give Cotto a boxing lesson. They wanted to bet with their heart, not common sense. Same with Cotto vs Gennady. They don't want that fight for one. Canelo they have a slim chance with. Gennady is a killer at 160, hits so damn hard, Chavez left town and went to 168 and complained Arum was the problem. No, the problem is Chavez can't just train 10 days for GGG like he trained 10 days for Sergio and almost got away with it. Cotto will stand and fight and to his demise if GGG happens.

you asked a question and i answered it. Not to mention in the rematch Margs didnt even look like he belonged in the same ring. I never said GGG wouldnt keep up but there are more dynamics to any fight rather then what norm's always say "he will get killed". If Cotto can take and/or avoid GGG's power its a very interesting fight.

Look! Canelo vs Cotto is a HUGE fight; who wouldn't want to see that fight! Canelo loves a dog fight. He couldn't get Lara or Floyd to fight him that way, he would really be in his wheelhouse with Cotto who won't retreat. The difference is youth and Canelo hits way harder than Cotto. Canelo's body shots take the life out of Cotto late in the fight . You saw how tired Cotto was late with Trout. Canelo will kill his body, and win a UD. Gennady on the other hand is a different story. Gennady hits like a light heavyweight with both hands, has a relentless attack and he knocks Cotto out!

Cotto should not even entertain fighting GGG unless he gets 15-20 mils range which he won't. Also, I wonder why roach commented on the HBO - GGG deal. Did he give us some type of hint? Is cotto looking to sign with showtime? Found it awkward that he'd comment on that when it's not brought up
