Comments Thread For: Cotto Shakes Things Up, Begins New Chapter in Career

[OffDaChainChico]

Was Cotto's entire biography necessary?

[Tay Roc]

Floyd is an exception in Haymon's stable of fighters because Floyd is his own boss.

lmao keep thinkin that

[wildman]

Face Golovkin you coward!

[Cinci Champ]

Cotto needs to fight Canelo or GGG next, nothing else matters. I really don't like him being the "lineal Champion." It's BS. Everyone knows he won the Middleweight Championship under circumstances that heavily favored him. He's a paper champion as far as I'm concerned!

a fight in which he dont take and people would say he ducked cotto cant seem to win with some

[Jubei]

Fight GGG, if you win you might become one of the greatest fighters ever and cement your legacy.

[bluzi]

Just a shame he is holding the WBC belt hostage for so long , fine i`m fed up with this waiting , fight the 147 of your choosing , win or lose i expect WBC to enforce the mendatory and let GGG win it already , ****ing cotto stalling for ages

[Agent Mulder]

Time to update my sig to cover Cotto's cowardly soul selling ways

[bigjavi973]

Mojoncito you stfu puta! You need your **** pushed in punk ass!

so in other words... you dont know what you are talkin about.

What chapter the chapter of ducking and hiding under a rock? hope so aint no one want to see this dude fight anyone but 2 people Canelo or GGG other then that stfu sit your ass down and retire.

Bro.......Cotto has more than proven his balls and mettle. If you or anyone else thinks he's hiding under a rock or ducking, you're just a complete idiot and NO NOTHING about the sport.......

How many fighters, whom after winning lineal titles, fight THE BEST or even top ten in their very next fight?

VERY FEW. NAME THEM OFF IF I'M WRONG??

And Cotto was right to wait out the Mayweather-Pac negotiations. Given how many times they fell apart, who does he take more punishment from, win or lose, Canelo or Floyd?

Your logic is flawed. He was holding out for a bigger check. Now that it won't happen, he'll move on and despite my wishes that he'd stay away from Golovkin, it will happen within 12 months. Hopefully Canelo is first, which I believe Cotto will win........but that's me.

Golovkin is another story. And frankly, if Miguel didn't take that fight, I don't think ANYONE would hold it against him. He's got a short reach, he's a VERY small WW who happened to catch a 39 year old career JMW with bad legs to get that title.

It's called pugilism for a reason. They do it for money. I'm sure he's going to have a relatively easy setup for his celebration of winning the title, being the first 4-division champion from Puerto Rico, and for all intents and purposes, the 'real Cotto' is back......

Unfortunately, with his balls, that means he likely does take a brutal beating vs GGG. But he's not a walk-over. He'll test GGG's chin like it hasn't been yet, he can fight going backwards, and will last at least through 6.

But to call him a chump because he didn't jump in the ring with GGG?

THIS is what a real "fan of the sport" sounds like. Well said.
