Comments Thread For: WBC: Cotto Must Face Golovkin After His Voluntary

[Pigeons]

The voluntary will be Floyd in September. June date will be scratched.

Hopefully. It's unfortunate the WBC has taken such a hardline stance. Cotto would be coming off 15 months of inactivity at that point.

This is perhaps the biggest duck phrase only 2nd to Rid**** Bowe throwing his title in the garbage because he didn't want to face Lennox Lewis.

Anyone in history would duck Golovkin for Mayweather.

Just wondering since when being "your own boss" became more important to fans than fighting the fighters you're supposed to fight...

If he wants to go back down in weight that is fine but he should make his intent clear. I don't consider it a duck, if he wants to pick on someone his own size or even most LMWs, most of whom are bigger than him.

It would be bs if he defends his lineal title in the new weight division he and Canelo created between 155-159. In that case he is ducking and holding the legit championship hostage.

I hate it for ya mang, all the squirming you are doing because Cotto Don't Want none of MR GGG.

GGG would jack that Jaw and Cotto would get beat to death and KO'd or he would Quit like he did against Pac.

Must be terrible for ya.

I hate it for ya bro. No hero should ever be asleep on his face in front of 20,000 fans. Add PPV to the mix and it is a tragedy.

No asterisks allowed bro. *

Difference being, those 2 guys where in the same division physically. Cotto is NO middleweight.

More reason to vacate ..... Cotto is not a MW and only fought in that class to take the belt from a wounded Martinez. Now that he's gotten the accolades for being the first PR Champion to achieve that feat, he should go back to his natural weight class and release the belt for the real MW's.

If he releases the belt, Golovkin and Quillin are #1/2 universally.

HBO + Al Haymon = No Fight

Might as well let Cotto defend it vs. Mayweather.

I agree with this.
