Yall ok with Cotto vs Khan?

[MDPopescu]

Khan? Didn't he sign with Haymon?

[JulianQ]

why would you want the middlewight "champ" to fight a guy whos has only 2 fights at 147?

My thoughts as well. Cotto needs to defend the belt against a legit top-5 middleweight.

Bradley > Kahn

i was eager for that fight tbh

Bradley ducked Khan

I would love Bradley vs Khan if only Bradley could just grow some b@lls

It's a big name fight with two large fan bases. It works and Khan is in a win/win situation. If he wins, he has a huge name to add to his resume and the demand for Mayweather. If he loses, he just went to far up in weight. But for Khan, he would earn a big payday and his ego wouldn't take a huge hit should he lose. That is why he went ahead and called out Cotto. The numbers would work for both.

at 154 only. cotto has a great chance of stopping khan in brutal fashion..

I think its more like a guarantee

[soul_survivor]

Cotto needs ppv fights. Roc nation said k9 wouldn't be ppv. Showtime rejected cotto/k9 once and would again. Don't see HBO caring much for it either.

Espinoza said Haymon was down for cotto/khan. This fight makes sense. Khan wants it.

In terms of entertainment value? Yes.

As a Khan fan? No.

For the lineal MW crown? No.

bad match-up for khan

[spytactics]

I don't think cotto is campaigning in the middleweight class but will take a middleweight fight after taking a stay busy fight. Khan is a good stay busy fight if cotto comes in at 150-152 with no title on the line. If he drops the middleweight belt, he should fight canelo, maidana, and khan. If he keeps the belt, a khan fight is ok only if he takes the GGG fight after.

great post, couldnt have said it better myself...

Isn't Kahn's kryptonite a left hook doe? Cotto's is up there with the best in boxing... That fight doesnt go the distance. If Cotto can't keep up though he could catch a beating too. Whoever imposes their style will win impressively. Even then, if Kahn imposes his will and is beating the breaks off Cotto he's still in danger of getting ktfo if Cotto decides to wing left hooks with him. Lol
