And don't worry about Cotto's legacy you old fool, he's the first PR fighter to win titles in 4 weight classes and is 20lbs north of his debut. Worry about your fighters legacy, the gutless GGG fighting in one of the safest, weakest current divisions in boxing.
    Those 2 things kind of counter act each other..you praise cotto for winning a title in a weak ass division..then slam GGG for fighting there

      So then you agree the best draws at 168 don't want to fight GGG and Ward openly said he isn't fighting GGG until he gets at least one fight in so... Yeah, he is being ducked at 154, 160 and 168 buy just about everyone.

        You named 3 people out of an entire division..The man fights 3-4 times a year so obviously people are fighting him

          I said nearly everyone... he's cleaned out MW completely because of it and now he's run out of people. If people duck him openly you don't get to complain about the guys he is fighting.

            I mean really?
            Hagler would have had too move all the way up to light heavy,dumb comparison.

              Saying he won a title in 4 weight classes doesn't particularly mean i'm praising him.

              Now that you mention it though, i'm gonna do it anyway. Yeah, props to Cotto for beating Martinez. I stick to my guns, I thought Cotto had no business at MW and Martinez even old and coming off surgeries I thought was going to pummel Cotto. Cotto raised my prediction by weighing in at a small 155lbs in the 159lbs catchweight. So yeah, praise to Cotto for beating the odds, a former JWW beating a MW titilist in grand fashion, by dominating TKO while being underdog. Other fans change their mind in retrospect but I stick to my prediction that even an injury prone, old Martinez KO's Cotto at MW and I was wrong. I own up now and give props. Most people full of it thougn so they can't do such a thing.

                      Cotto moved up and won the WBC MW belt. Golovkin is a career MW, why the fk wouldn't they want this fight? So basically cotto can opt to fight a 38 yr old with a bad knee for the MW title but refuse to fight the true MW champion. Yea that makes sense for cotto's health now when i think about it.
