Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach Would Fight Cotto Catch-Weight Stance

Awesome. Play hardball and end up fighting some guy named Jorge Sebastien Heiland for the belt Cotto throws in the trash.

GGG young man, let him grow into a P4P elite type fighter... O wait isn't he 33.

So he can't fight Ward at 168 for his belt... Convenient catch weight I see

because it's very likely that Ward will beat GGG easy, make him look ******, so asking 164lbs is a way of hiding away from the fight

You'll fight at whatever weight Cotto wants b1tch!

Oh, it is so cool to hide behind the keyboard and call the figher you fear derogatory names. You're pathetic little c*nt.

as the article states, golovkin has not weighed below 158.5 lbs in his pro career. i know that sanchez has made comments to the contrary in the past, but all signs point to ggg being significantly weakened if he had to fight at 156 lbs or whatever (just like ward would be at 164 lbs)

If it came down to it, for the opportunity of a landing a mega-fight, I think Golovkin would jump to fight Cotto/Alvarez at 155lbs. What team Golovkin says now and what they'd say at an actual negotiation table would be a bit different.

Lineal title aside, I see Cotto/Alvarez having atleast one rematch and Golovkin taking the full WBC MW title in the mean time. By the time Alvarez is done with Cotto any CW below 160lbs would probably hurt him as much as Golovkin, he's getting older and that weight cut will be getting harder.

154-168 though.. O wait 155-164 thoughh

This dude is a joke.

No need for GGG to agree on cw, he´s the mandatory and the belt is 160. No catch weights should be allowed in title fights, period. Queen Cotto can go get a 154 belt if MWs are too big for him, simple as that really.

Cotto's the A-side. He can demand whatever he wants.

Then he can **** off and vacate the damn belt. One way or another golovkin is getting the wbc belt,whether he has to fight cotto,canelo,or delahoya,or jayz himself for it.
