Canelo-Cotto for all the above. Cotto-Golovkin is a mismatch, no idea why people care to see it.

i prefer GGG vs Cotto first. Canelo has already faced floyd. i wanna see GGG vs a potential HOF. GGG needs cotto more than Canelo needs Cotto.

Canelo vs Cotto

First three.

But knowing that the biggest fight in boxing didn't happen with two divas(Mayweather/Pac), it wouldn't surprise me if this one didn't either. Canelo and Cotto are two divas as well.

Cotto vs GGG. Canelo already has a fanbase, GGG's fanbase would rise after beating Cotto.

it will legitimize GGG's star status by beating cotto and it would set up GGG vs Canelo later on when Canelo eventually has to move up. Canelo is pretty much basically a star in boxing now. GGG is rising to star status. Cotto fight seals it for GGG.

[DondiNeverLeft]

Cotto vs Canelo is closer to a chess match and a war plus the PR Mex rivalry and huge money and everything else.

As for GGG vs Cotto. I don't see what Cotto gets IF he wins.. More respect from the hardcore fans?
He won't make as much and it's super dangerous for him. It's all win for GGG. He is the favorite, in his prime, a real middleweight, he wins and he will do a Trout and Margarito and become a huge star. Why should Cotto deal with that at the end of his career?

Canelo-Cotto is a better fight because it is a more even match up, however from a 'sporting' sense Cotto should be fighting Golovkin and that scenario is better for boxing. Canelo-Cotto is far more likely to happen.

Understandable from that sense but the fight itself isn't much of a fight. I could see Canelo-Cotto going tit for tat for long stretches, I could see both fighters getting hurt, that's an event right there.

Agree 100%. I think I already gave you Karma once so imma give you a gift. GGG does need this more than Canelo. This could get GGG started down the PPV path. Canelo doesn't need it.
