Where was all this hate when martinez picked cotto, a blown up welterweight at the time as some of you called him, to defend his mw title? Nope. There was no hate. Ya were actually excited. "A 50% martinez too much for cotto doe" here cry some more
Cotto is absolutely certain he can't beat GGG and he is now creating this sense of rebellion to make it look like no one dictates to him who he fights. Well, I think fans should dictate the opponent because we are the ones that pay to see the best. I am tired of being an avid boxing fan who gets treated like s---- because fighters are only interested in creating this aura of invincibility and we fall for it. Shame on me and everyone else if we pay 1 penny to see someone like Cotto fight someone that isn't even a middleweight. Let's unite and spread the message so he hears it and any other fighter that dodges the best fights for us, the fans.

Best thing I've read in this whole thread. Close it.
If they do that "Improved" policy across the board then 100% supported. This is an organisation that doesn't do that. Why don't they do the same thing with their other champions? I want to see undisputed champions too so do this across the board. But to try and force Cotto to fight GGG when they have stripped champions for doing the same thing suggest money is changing Sulaiman hands from GGG backers.
They've just done the same thing with Stevenson and the Kovalev-Pascal winner, Gay Ray. Try and keep up.
Which means: "I most certainly will not let a sanctioning body force me to get my pink clothes wearing (but I support breast cancer research doe), sleeping in the bed with a grown ass man, diva, b1tch ass to get into the ring with that scary monster Golovkin!!"
Everyone is just being bitter the Canelo fight didn't happen and blame Cotto for no reason. I mean really, what human with a brain would rush into the Canelo fight when there was a slim hope he could rematch the best p4p fighter in the world? Manny - Floyd looked like it was about to fall apart until they met at the Heat game. And Canelos the one who decided to rush into a fight knowing if the mega fight gets made he'd have to fall a back a week anyways.
Anyway you people are being to dramatic. He's just saying he's bigger then those Shiiity companies which he is. Cotto is not Danny Garcia, he's not going to fight a Salka and ignore the fans. Cotto has never backed down from a fight so why you guys doubting him now? If anything the mandatory will get pushed back for the Canelo fight and the winner fights GGG anyways. GGG can wait to see if Andy Lee beats Quillin because that would be a good unification to keep GGG busy anyways. And since GGG likes to stay busy once Fonfara beats up Chavez Jr, GGG can beat him up in the winter.
Good post. People are letting their hatred speak instead of being sensible to the situations that were presented during this time frame. I know I am reaching here, but I like to assume most boxing fans also understand the politics and reasons why certain fights aren't made immediately, especially when it's regarding a fighter at the tail end of their career.
