Comments Thread For: Roach: Canelo First, Then Golovkin Next Year For Cotto

Huh-O, you got me there. Cotto is a disgrace to his family, country, and sport of boxing. Everyone should boycott his fight Sat. That'll show him.

That tool Barcham fails to grasp how Cotto was in the middle switching over to Roc Nation. Cotto is going to show these haters something this year and they are going to realize what happens when you get too ****y with a wack ass resume.

Most of these GGG fanb1tches are screaming for Cotto because they think he's an easy mark to legitimize their boi. Truth is, Cotto is a superstar jr middleweight who's name got him a shot at the middleweight title that he didn't deserve. And that was because Martinez was cashing out. A win over Cotto does little to nothing to legitimize the hype machine. Andre Ward is arguably the best fighter in the world and resides in a division GGG claims to be willing to fight in. A win over Ward legitimizes GGG and probably crowns him the heir apparent P4P King for when Floyd retires or loses. But none of them want tbat fight. Too scared it will knock the train off the track much like what happened to their boi Matthysse. So they'd rather sit around jerk'n off watching him KO ESPN fighters and calling out smaller fighters.

Find me another real champion who needed a tune up fight after a year off, a year off of his own choosing and no injury involved. And forced his opponent in that tune up fight to drain himself down by demanding a catchweight below the division limit.

Just one. I'll wait.

Help me connect the dots here: are you suggesting that seeing Robert Plant with Band of Joy is like seeing Kiss, which is like seeing BKB -- a hell of a show but not the real thing? And where does that leave Little Jimmy Page and Puffy?

I'll wait.

IMO, it will be a very pleasant surprise if the Canelo fight gets made even.

That's an absolutely silly question. Being out 1 year and taking a tune up fight whether injured or not is far more legit then being active and taking tune up fights in between big fights. Why do you need a tune up if you just finished fighting? That's what a tune up is for, fvking dim I swear.

Almost all past champs took tune up fights whether they were active or not.

Cottos fighting Mayweather. we all know this deep down. Cotto aint tring to give a Mexican a payday.

He can't hbo has the rights to his next fight.

You won't make it past Canelo, Roach. I will bet every single worthless e point I have on that with anyone who disagrees. I know, with certainty, like tomorrow is another day, that Cotto loses to Canelo. Holla.

With that being said, it's easy to throw GGG's name around when you're never gonna have to cross paths. Because you'll never have a chance to get there.

Beat. I'll send u a hundred bucks to make up the difference if cotto loses So ur points are t that worthless

sugar ray leonard had a 3 year layoff and moved up 2 divisions to fight hagler

With Trout, Diaz had him in Big Bear for training, then flew out to Florida weeks before the fight. This completely nullified the benefits of high altitude training, and going to sea level so early negatively affected Cotto's conditioning. It was a costly move and was some of the reason for why Diaz was dismissed after the loss. Diaz was trying to change Cotto into a Cuban point fighter and reinvent him into something he wasn't comfortable with.

Incorrect. It was t Diaz' it was cottos! He was an ash ole. Lazy. And wants to go back to his comfort zone. Cotto took trout lightly. Didn't prep as he should and got punished for it. That's what his dun azz gets. Thankfully he learned. Now he take all fights seriously. Even the trouts and the geales becuase those types are the most hungry.
