Comments Thread For: Cotto Allowed Voluntary Defense Before Facing Golovkin

Cotto loses voluntary defense.

Golovkin fans claim he did so on purpose, to duck GGG.

Ohh what a surprise.... Didn't see this coming! Anyway, the real question is will canelo get a voluntary as well

I'm pretty sure the winner will have to face the mandatory. I was always under the impression that the mandatory gets a title shot no matter the outcome between the champ/voluntary opponent.

he's shook, john. i can see him taking a knee.

And so it begins. Golovkin-Murray in Feb and Canelo-Cotto in May. Winners on a collision course.

I think Canelo would step up to the plate.

No surprise here. GGG - Murray, Cotto - Canelo. Winners face each other. I'm all for it.

Canelo vs Cotto will make a bunch of money and the winner of that fight will make a lot of money vs GGG.

These fights should get the hype that they deserve

You have to look at it from the hunter's point of view. 3G can get paid a lot of money for beating Cotto next and Alvarez is low hanging fruit. Why cut into 3G's money making him fight, no disrespect, Murrey while he waits for this egg to hatch?

Canelo Vs Cotto and GGG vs Canelo/Cotto are great fights. Let's just hope it all goes to plan and pans out like it's supposed to.

Voluntary defense should be a middleweight. Cotto vs Truax for a tune up. Then GGG can make Cotto Good Boy.

GTFOH with that bull****. 2.5yrs ago, Cotto was all kinda washed up, shot, etc when the welterweight champ moved up to fight him. And it was "confirmed" in his next fight when he got his ass kicked by Trout. Canelo was all kinda hypejobs when the welterweight champ moved up and kicked his ass. According to everyone with a functional pair of eyes, he just got his ass kicked by Lara. But now that they're in GGG's sights, they're the greatest thing since sliced bread. If they were bull**** opponents for the welterweight champ several years ago. They're even bigger bull**** opponents for the best middleweight in the world now.
