    Can you read? Like I know you can read and then write but can you actually understand what's being written? Because I really do not know at this point.

    Where have I said he shouldn't defend his titles (Titles he shouldn't even have) and what does that have to do with his size?

      I don't think so. Harder punchers than Cotto, full sized middleweights have never been able to even stagger him. The one who would get knocked out would be Cotto and it wouldn't take long. Cotto was KOed by Margarito and Pacquiao and they punch like children compared to GGG. Cotto is a very good fighter but he will avoid GGG just as Martinez did for years.

        "Full sized middle weights." That's an extremely GREY area when discussing GGG, and who he has faced.

          I could see Cotto decking GGG with a left hook, but more than likely GGG would get up and put him to sleep within a couple of rounds of it.

            Theres no grey zone at all. GGG blasted out full sized top 10 middleweights like Geale and Macklin in 3 rounds. These are normally durable and strong middleweights. Cotto is completely unproven at 154 let alone 160.

              Cotto would definitely land a lot of shots, he would still get taken out in the late round though. It would be GGG's toughest fight to date.

                I don't see Cotto hurting GGG especially at 160. However, I do think Cotto is the better boxer/fighter and would outbox GGG but I don't think he could consistently do it for 12 rounds and would began to break down due to size and pressure from the bigger man.

                  Geale and Macklin? That's about as grey as it gets.

                    Who else is at 160 other Quillin that would allow GGG to prove himself? Dont say Cotto, he will literally die against GGG and he wont fight him anyway. Until he moves up to 168 theres nobody that will test him. You will just have to be sceptical until then.

                      I guess so. You're right. He has looked a beast so far. Just not sold on his opposition.
