Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: If Cotto Wins, He Will Run From Us!

[BattlingNelson]

Cotto has already stated that he will vacate his WBC title if forced into a fight with GGG.
What does that tell you...

I didn't know that. Do you have a source?

[OnePunch]

well duh. OF COURSE Cotto will run from GGG.

And in other news, water is wet.

I'll look for it but it was posted here a few months back. He came out and said that if the WBC continues to put pressure on him to face GGG (who at the time was his mandatory), he will just drop the belt.

Abel should be thinking about Lemieux right now, leave your Cotto fetish alone for now and concentrate on the task at hand!

[mabulkhair]

Of course he will. Cotto today is the same guy that got his ass beat by Margarito, just apply pressure and you will see him taking knees looking for the easy way out. Let's see his last three opponents; Rodriguez who is an unknown and his best fights were long gone against Wolak, Martinez who was shot (wore two knee braces), and Geale who was drained down to 157. These are opportunistic fights, there won't be a GGG fight because Cotto is going to get whooped against Canelo. Now Canelo/GGG that's a 50/50 fight. And for the ones saying fight Ward, Ward couldn't even make 168 but if they were to fight, I would favor Ward. I like both fighters though, never understood why there is so much hate against Ward and GGG, both are talented.

More **** talk from Sanchez...

The same exact kind of talk when he was training Yori Boy Campas who was 56-0 with 50 kos.

[bigjavi973]

What do some people have short term memory loss? Didn't ODH say it'll be like 2 years before CaneLol fights at Middleweight?

[bigjavi973]

So I presume that you two think it was pure coincidence that Ward changed his mind about needing tune-ups before stepping up to a live opponent, and decided he wanted GGG next, just a week before Loeffler announced the news about GGG/Lemieux?

And Loeffler not saying "Sorry Oscar, the unification fight is off, Andre wants us NOW" That was GGG running away from Ward, yeah? GTFOH.

a64 doe!!!

That's not what he stated.

He said that he's gonna fight who he wants to fight next, not who they want him to fight.

He basically said if GGG wants the belt he can have it, because he had other plans 1st (big money canelo fight; which I'm not defending he should have BEEN fought GGG imo) Going in as well after the Geale fight Cotto stated that after the Canelo fight if GGG is available that he's available too.

[North Star]

Cotto said himself post Geale fight that if they're both available in the future, they can fight. But first he has to take care of Canelo, then they can talk.
