    Miguel is in the driver's seat, they can cry and whine all they want but ultimately Golovkin's team are in no position to negotiate.

      Who's honestly surprised by this ??? It's typical from Freddy " CATCHWEIGHT OR NO FIGHT " Roach .

          He'd still fight him at 155 but it's one thing to talk about it, it's another to actually make the fight.

            The Sounds that the Mitts and Pads make when GGG makes contact with them is earth shattering, It instills fear into the opponent. This vid was from 2012. Sounds like reverberation to me.

                What did you think of Manny wanting Cotto at 145 and 150 , while refusing 147 and 154 ,,,, Cotto is doing the same as Manny does so why rag on Cotto while giving Manny a pass ?

                  That's the thing, I also believe that GGG can make his own legacy without killing himself for one of these guys. I don't see the rush to be honest. This is why I don't listen to fighters when they claim they can go down in weigh, they mostly say those things to entice a bigger name. GGG can make a name for himself like he is doing now.
                  The thing with GGG is that he is already 32 years old and everyone is avoiding him, similar to what happened to Daniel Santos at 154 when he was the champ, he is lefty, and hard to fight against him and ppl ducked him. With GGG if he don't start making moves now ppl will still be ducking him and make absolutely no legacy at all. He needs to concede to what Cotto and his Camp wants, and he has everything going for him to beat Cotto, and I'm a huge Cotto fan. Cotto greatest asset will be his experience in Championship Matches. I will like to see it, because if Cotto pulls this win (which been the Champ it will still make him the underdog for this fight watch) then he could be big time in the drivers seat for his next fight in may Possibly a huge fight with Canelo Alvarez, and when Cotto wins that one he can easily retire.

                    Freddie Roach has been known to openly talk about how he uses catch weights to handicap his opponents before. Not really shocked.
