Comments Thread For: Cotto Eyes Canelo Fight, But Won't Be Pressured

Cotto doesn't give two shits about those mexican dates.

Canelo wants to compete with floyd

Cotto doesn't because it wouldn't good for business.

ODH & team seem to think different.

IMO it'll be in October, maybe in Florida, NY or Las Vegas.

Cotto haters need to look at his whole career -- not just what's happened since he's challenged himself by moving up in weight (something that neither Canelo nor Golovkin have done). He has been schooled and betrayed by promoters in the past and has decided that it's never going to happen again. At age 34, I cannot fault him for that. He's the one who bruises and bleeds.

Cotto doesn't have a choice. HBO wouldn't air his upcoming fight unless he signed an offer sheet to fight Canelo. He can try and pull out of the fight or stall to kill the fight again but HBO will step in and make it happen. Canelo will beat this older version of Cotto easily.

hbo will force the fight and if he doesn't want it he better pick a good opponent or hbo won't approve it I guess

I dont know who Cotto is trying to kid.....he's stuck between a Roc and a H(bo)ARD place.

One of the most clever wordplay comments I read on here.

Am I the only one that is kinda hoping that geale beats him,so that cotto stops acting like such a diva?

Same here, Cotto became the biggest bitch in boxing.

Cotto is afraid of anyone with a pulse.

You got that right, dude is even scared of his own shadow after a jog when his heart is pumping.

I don't think Cotto wants to fight in Texas or on a Mexican holiday against Canelo.

Same here, him and puerto rico (as displayed here on forum by puerto ricans posters) are very resentful of mexicans for no apparent reason other then their boxers have been getting defeated against mexicans. only thing I can see really.

No one will make Cotto fight Canelo and no one will make Cotto fight GGG. Looks like Cotto is the biggest chicken in the sport today. I hope WBC strips him of his title and HBO prevents him from fighting on any other network until he turns into a man and fulfils his obligations.

Actually, I hope Geale beats his ass and makes him irrelevant.

You got that right.

u mad ranchero?

Truth hurts on playa?

I'm a fan of Cotto but he is being so gey. It's ridiculous.

Cotto been a ***** for the longest time.

He might not, but everyone has a price. If it's lucrative enough he might just change his tune.

When you sign a contract, you are bound to it legally, ethically and everything else in between.

Sure...but the most important thing is what the contract actually says. If you haven't actually seen the contract, you can't exacly opine on Cotto's obligations.

Please, please, please, fight in Orlando, in December! I like giving gifts to my wife, that are really gifts for me too!

[bigjavi973]

So Floyd, Manny, Prime Margarito didnt have a pulse?

Every single fight that has pacquiao or cotto you say "the other guy is going to win" and happens the exact opposite.

Either you're ******ed or you're an attention hore, theres no way u believe the sh8t u type.

brush hates ricans for some reason. shit he gave Clottey a 10-8 round over cotto in the round where cotto got the kd.
