[SchoolTheseCats]

Moving up a pound every two years this dudes a joke

[BoxingLegend89']

So the "middleweight champion" wants 155 and the "not a middleweight" Canelo wants 156. What a joke.

Whats the problem?? 155 is canelos weight class...

So cotto is allowing canelo to come in at his weight class of 155 and now he doesnt want it? But but but cotto is a diva doe

I think Canelo is just f.cking Cotto. 155 or 156 really doesn't matter much. Seems like mind games

as long as it wasn't texas.....thank god.

still clinging to a hunch that floyd vacates the 154 titles friday and canelo-cotto will be for the 154 wbc since canelo is rated no1 last i check while cotto vacates the 160 wbc even though he said he wouldnt.

Still waiting for an announcement that Golovkin has accepted a step aside deal so that this fight may be for the WBC title.

keep waiting...
seems like GGG is being ignored by both camps and the WBC, he better do something or else is going to get screwed...

even though he has the right to enforce cotto vs ggg since cotto made voluntary, should have told mauricio sulaiman to go **** himself and make canelo find someone else since canelo "isn't interested" in the 160 division.

Of course it's gonna be in Vegas. But as long as it's not in Texas and Laurence Cole is nowhere near the ring, I'm satisfied.

I'm ****ing pumped for this fight.

War Boxing!!!!!

WAR COTTO PUNETA!!!!!

@ canelo. His last 3 fights were at 155 right?... he shouldn't have a problem with his own weight.

I think he was making fun of both fighters to be fair.

Anyway, 155 is as low as it can go if it's going to be at MW so this would seem to be in Cotto's best interest. Canelo wants to be able to come in a bit heavier (but not enough for people to realize he could totally fight at 160). It's still a bit of a surprise given his consistent demands for 155lbs, but whatever.
