    Comments Thread For: Cotto-Geale Clash Will Head To Barclays on June 6th

    BoxingScene.com reported two weeks ago that former champion Daniel Geale (31-3, 16KOs) became the frontrunner to face WBC middleweight champion Miguel Cotto (39-4, 32KOs) on June 6th in New York City. A deal has apparently been completed, according to a report by El Vocero. Cornelius 'K9' Bundrage and Jorge Sebastian Heiland were the other two candidates in the running.

    The paper reports that Cotto's next fight, televised by HBO, will head to the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Cotto's New York career has been built at the rival venue, Madison Square Garden in Manhattan, but the fighter is making some changes. Earlier this year he signed a multi-fight promotional agreement with Roc Nation Sport.

      I hope it's not at a catch weight.

      Geale has been fighting at 160 for a long time, he'd be weakened by going to a lower weight.

          So the lineal champion fights a guy his no.1 contender KTFO? Terrible fight.

          Move down Cotto. This is unbearable.

                  Surely there's no need for a catchweight. That would be so lame. A champion needing a CW against an opponent his mando annihilated? That would be unheard and embarrasing.

                              Pacquiao faced Hatton after Mayweather KTFO. So what it is stil a good opponent

                                  Waiting for reports saying it's at a catchweight. Will also be waiting for training footage of Geale wearing knee braces.

                                      Cotto finally inks a fight with a rated MW, and people complain. Outside of Golovkin who we would all love him to fight, who SHOULD he fight instead?
