        Keep in mind Geale is a spineless wimp and ball less

        Geale is a frail wimp weak quitting sorry Aussie with no spine and no balls. It's not like Cotto KO'd a top contender just a weak Aussie sissy. All Aussies are weak.

          All fixed up now.

              In hindsight, I bet Cotto wishes he'd taken Geale at the full 160. Cotto sure dominated him, but there's always gonna be that asterisk. Cotto looks a lot better his past 3 fights, but none of the 3 have been *healthy* A fighters. GGG has looked great, but he doesn't have an A fighter on his resume.

              I'll still take GGG over Cotto, even at 154, but Cotto looked better than he has in a long time.

                GTFOH. GGGs last victims Murray and Monroe would have wiped the mat clean with Geale's sorry ass. And what's this crap about "spending more time with my family". The hell has Cotto done for the past year?!?! The fight with Canelo is a sure thing, and the PPV money will be there regardless. Why the urgency to fight each other so soon when there won't be a title on the line is beyond me. I guess Cotto is afraid to get two ass beatings in a row if he fights GGG first and then gets waxed by an ever improving Mexican in Canelo Alvarez. Maybe he should take a Canelo loss before he suffers from GGG's devastating left hook to the body. Cotto might be calling the shots, but neither option looks to promising from a pure boxing non monetary stand point. As for a rematch with the money man, he hasn't improved that much and he gassed out when he had his chance. At least Mayweather would have more balls to face GGG at Light middle weight than Cotto does at middle weight. I doubt that will happen as FM probably doesn't want to risk losing his zero in the loss column. Just saying.

                  cotto is a warrior and one of the reasons i love boxing and i feel he has the right to choose his opponents now that hes at the end of his career. he is a first ballot hall of famer after all!

                  Golovkin is the No. 1 contender for the WBC title and the mandatory challenger, although WBC president Mauricio Sulaimon has said he is willing to make an exception for Cotto to fight Canelo Alvarez if he beats Geale. One condition for that exception, however, is that both Cotto and Alvarez must guarantee they will fight Golovkin next if they win.

                  Cotto does not appear enamored with that stipulation, and there is speculation he'd rather drop the WBC belt and fight Alvarez in a non-title bout if need be rather than face Golovkin.
