Comments Thread For: Cotto’s anti-establishment stance leaves GGG powerless

[Snoop Frog]

Cotto will get a fight lined up with Floyd and another with Canelo, then will retire. Like he's said, he's watching out for his business and his family and he's not going to take on unnecessary risk (GGG) without a big payday. I wish either the WBC would make him vacate or Cotto would give up the MW strap.

Why is anyone shocked the GGG isn't going to be next?

We all knew that Canelo/Cotto was next in line. It's a big fight, and the one we all want.

After this fight, and if GGG is still undefeated then the winner of Canelo/Cotto should fight GGG.

So let them both sign a contract to that effect and get on with things. But no, they both refuse to give that guarantee to fight GGG. isn't that interesting?

Lemieux gets folded in 5 rounds by GGG, then everyone will complain that GGG is just fighting Rubio's left overs.

GGG should fight Froch for a big money fight. In boxing there are few big money fights that come around. A Froch fight in England could be huge. After that he can come back and face the Canelo/Cotto winner, and if for some reason that fight doesn't happen right away, beating Froch opened the door for him to have another fight with DeGeale at 168, and ultimately the big fight with Ward.

If you actually follow the boxing news, GGG is trying to get a deal done with Froch but Froch seems to have vanished as far as GGG and his team are concerned.

HAHAHAHAHAHA !!Cotto will never fight GGG??ARE YOU KIDDING ME ?HAHAHA I LAUGH SO HARD I ****!!

Its OK, everyone understands Cotto is a lame coward who is holding
the Lineal MW belt hostage. Did you see the urine puddle at his feet in the ring when Max asked him about Golovkin? He probably ran to the locker-room to change his pink panties. Your local poster shop may have a copy, so you can pin it up in your room.

WOW! Another rehash of what we have been posting about around here for months now. And once again... here is the important part...



Unfortunately Cotto and Canelo refuse to sign such a contract so I guess Cotto will be stripped. Now I'll sit back and wait for all the Cotto jockstraps to come in and ask for proof that Sulaiman actually said that, because every time I have posted that info over the past couple of weeks I have basically been called a liar.

And you're just like GGG, powerless.

By Lyle Fitzsimmons - For the contrarians who lament the muddled state of championship boxing and suggest we simply do away with sanctioning bodies and ignore their self-serving rules, you have a hero in your midst.

Ladies and gentlemen, may I introduce Miguel Cotto.

The World Boxing Council’s middleweight kingpin (for the time being, at least) struck a blow for title-level disorder Saturday night, but it wasn’t when he dispatched a bloated, non-combative Daniel Geale.

Rather, the Puerto Rican star made his biggest statement after the fight, when he confirmed that his next trick would be to once again step through the Mexico-based organization’s mandatory challenger – Gennady Golovkin – to engineer a pay-per-view match later this year with Saul “Canelo” Alvarez.

The WBC’s president was smiling in the ring after the TKO and has suggested his alphabet group will sign off on a Cotto-Alvarez match – even though Alvarez holds no belts and has defeated no middleweight contenders – with the proviso that a pre-fight contract be drawn up guaranteeing Golovkin’s got next.

I know that logic doesn't cut much ice around here. But there is a glaring logical fallacy in characterising Cotto as an anti-establishment rebel, thumbing his nose at the alphabet boys because he knows their titles don't mean ****.

Yeah? So why then is Cotto using every trick in the book to cling on to the WBC belt for as long as he possibly can?

Truth is, Cotto, Roach and Roc all know that world titles do matter, and that Cotto/Alvarez will be a bigger fight if it's a title fight.

This man has given his life to boxing...If he wants to make money and take care of his family, so be it. The same fans that are calling him a coward are the same ones begging him to do something for boxing (them)...

[PETUFF]

Nothing special on GGG ...all he do is coming forward and get hit a lot but I want to see it against somebody with punch power to see if he gonna walk thru the punch!!it seems a bit Antonio Margarito... it really remind me Antonio Margacheato!

Lets get serious mang, you serious, GGG has big drama show for yo mang Cotto.

But

IF YO MANG COTTO don't want GGG then he should with respect give up the lineal title and let someone win it if he don't mind it being on his resume ?

I respect Cotto !!!! He is a KO artist, a Chicken Chaser, but was fouled up by Margo and Pac , was in limbo without a great trainer to bring him back , then found ROACH and ****O MANG looky what happened.

Cotto under Roacha should fighta Canelo for sure, I wish he would fight May Jr one more time for old time sake and see if he survives that at 154.

I think the Chickena Chasina COTTO with KO the nice shicken Jr
