    Does a single damn in the world care about which belts are on the line when Pacquiao and Mayweather fight? Does anyone care that there are no belts on the line for Provodnikov v Matthysse? I dont care if Garcia/Peterson are fighting 143 and no belts. Its still a good fight and if they cant make 140 healthy Id rather see them at 143 and be at their physical best than fight at 140 so it can be a title fight.

    GGG is the same fighter with or without unifying the division with an EASY fight. What does it matter if Cotto keeps the belt? No one considers him the MW champ.
    Cotto is the LINEAL MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPION. If he wants to play middleweight,he needs to man the **** up and face golovkin. If he doesn't want to,because he's too small,then he should just drop the belt,and go back to 154,instead of treating the damn belt as a bargaining chip against welterweights. Pacquiao wasn't a true Jr middleweight, so when he beat margarito he let go of the belt right away. Cotto should do the same,if not,he deserves to get pounded by GGG,for keeping the belt hostage,and refusing to fight the legitimate champion at that weight class.

      Everybody know that belt is for bargaining chip for the big names (Floyd conelo) everyone know GGG is the 160 man ...him beating a 154 does nothing for his career he needs the peter quillins and he pretty much proves he the best @160 he should be up by 168 in a year

        I think GGG could toy with Cotto

          Cotto should step down from his title. I would respect him for that. He is a good fighter but more of a welterweight than a middleweight. I would also respect him if he fought GGG even though it is a mismatch and he would not last long. What I can't respect is first him taking over a year off and thereby keeping the lineal world middleweight title hostage. Secondly when he does end his vacation and defend his "middleweight title" he apparently will be defending it against a welterweight like Bradley or Rios.

              Cotto is a natural WW. I don't know why he even needs to fight GGG. How about GGG move up to 175 and fight Kovalev? Cotto has every right to fight fighters his size and avoid Golovkin.

                    He hasn't fought at 147 in 5 years. He's a LMW who took a calculated risk and it paid off. Now the consequence of winning is he has to defend the belt, or he can just drop the belt and move back down. Defending the belt against a non-MW would be a damn shame.

                      What's the solution if Cotto doesn't vacate?
