Comments Thread For: Cotto: GGG Never Beat Top Foe, Canelo Failed To Shine!

[Hougigo]

Wait... who is Cotto fighting this Saturday?

[aboutfkntime]

Who cares about that? I'm talking the here and the now. I'll say it again: Miguel Cotto will NEVER fight Gennady Golovkin. NEVER!! I know it hurts Javi. It's ok. Have a coke and a smile.

Excellent news !

Thanks for that ^^

I have no interest in that fight.

And now that lame payday is off the table, it is more likely that Hypekin will step up and take on a real challenge.

Kirkland was still regarded as a dangerous fighter, who had only one loss. The truth is, Cotto thought he had a shot at a Mayweather rematch if negotiations with Pacquiao fell through. The risk against Canelo didn't stand up to the potential millions he could have made against Mayweather. Cotto couldn't have done to Kirkland what Canelo did. I bet he saw that fight and said, "Oh ****, I'm glad I didn't fight Canelo!"

That is a massive assumption, based on nothing.

Since getting blasted by Ishida in round 1, what has Kirkland done ?

He left Wolfe, fought lower-tier guys, and was inactive for 2 years before Canelo..... and he has always struggled with consistancy.

That was a massive assumption, based on nothing.

Every time Cotto has stepped up in comp he's also failed to shine. So wtf is this guy talking about. He should stop making excuses and fight these guys.

Really ?

Well, what happened every time Golovkin stepped up and fought an elite guy ?

GGG speaks spanish until it's Lara's name calling.

GGG is down w/ Cali until it's Ward's name calling.

GGG just needs to man up. His best win is considered a tune up for Cotto, a washed up Jr. WW - sad

Somebody didn't read my post properly before they responded. I said Ward needs Golovkin more than Golovkin needs him. You get a zero for the day. Damn near nobody wants to fight GGG because he's a beast. If you want to try to twist that around to make it seem like He's ducking, put together a list of the many big names who are calling him out. I dare you.

Golovkin is the number one MW contender. Cotto is the WBC MW champion. Why the hell wouldn't they fight?? Last time I checked, this was a competitive sport.

This is not my argument but Ward called him years ago and Lara called him out recently.

GGG is a hard puncher for sure, but he is not this beast that he is made out to be. Kind of remind me of Lucas before he fought and lost to Danny Garcia.

[WalkerSmith1921]

Golovkin's win over Murray is better than any fight cotto won!

Truths brah.

Golovkin will not answer Lara's challenge but want fans to feel sorry him? Golovkin will not answer Ward's challenge either!!

No pity for someone who will not challenge himself; but do not mind fighting smaller or inexperienced or limited fighters.

We need to see more quality and less mediocre quantity.

I really like Cotto and I dont want to call him a duck because he has faced the best in his great career. He even faced Margarito when he was considered the boogie man, but this language Cotto is currently using is the language of a duck and I dont like it. Please bring the old Cotto back.

[PeasantCrusha]

You are an absololute fanboy, and obviously madly in love with Golovkin.

Why do you kids need to do that ******ed shht ?

It is clearly obvious that Cotto is not a genuine middleweight, and not Golovkins "own size".

So, because of the importance of fairness GGG cannot fight a larger opponent, despite his trainer saying "anyone from 154-168"...... and yet with Cotto, close enough is ok, right ?

* Cotto is not a genuine MW, but he will fight there if suitable (Geale)
* Golovkin is not a genuine SMW, but he will fight there is suitable (Froch)

* Cotto will fight Canelo, and lesser opponents, but not Golovkin
* Golovkin will fight Froch, and lesser opponents, but not Ward

It is exactly the same situation, except that Cotto is a proven veteran, and Golovkin is not.

Keep sucking those GGG balls son.

Agreed. They will stoop to anything to see Cotto fall. From Plaster wraps to pretending Cotto is a legit MW. Give it time and they will be talking Cotto VS Kovalev.


Silly peasants.

That's hard to accomplish. There's probably less than 10 fighters in history who started at 154 or 160 who even got two-three titles in three divisions.

Golovkin is already 32 which makes it tougher. James Toney was the last guy to ever start at 154 or 160 in his career and get three titles.

Nobody sees Golovkin beating Toney prime for prime either.

On Friday, a poster stated that Golovkin was better than Hagler/Monzon, and that he was sick and tired of hearing those names mentioned.

Two people agreed, and I think I was the only one who disagreed/laughed.

I hold Toney in higher regard than most people seem to, I think he was a great fighter..... if Golovkin gets even close to Toney I will be impressed, but lets be honest here..... I can see that Golovkin is not the same calibre of fighter as Toney, I dont need to wait for his career to play out.
