    That's the thing, I don't think he has to be amazing to be able to beat a middleweight Cotto.

      Daniel Geale is easier to KO after he has already been KOed by GGG and only allowed to weigh 157. Murray is a good win for anyone. ESPN, Ring Magazine, Boxing Scene and Boxrec all rank GGG in the top five or higher in the world pound for pound. Do you know why? Because he is a bad MF that's why.

          If Cotto can weather the early storm - it's smooth sailing from there
          so fighters cannot lose nowadays in good fights when they are young and grow from there lemieux is only 26 now, he's just about to enter his prime, and he's been looking pretty impressive

            Sure, I even said that I don't think this is a ppv fight. Still I think people both overrate and underrate Lemieux (depending on the agenda), he is no bum, he is a good decent middleweight champion who is still probably getting folded in half by Golovkin.

              This era of fans are ******ed, man. If you lose, you suck, basically. Lemieux lost years ago, legitimately, but his mistakes in those fights were glaring. He seems to have corrected them and is a much better fighter.

                  Some things are just not really repairable - Lemeiux seems like the type that folds once he finds out that the guy he's fighting can take his punches.

                  Once he realizes GGG can eat his punches and deliver his own, he'll fold and get KO'd

                  Nothing against him - nothing wrong about being average. He's just a power puncher and once that gets taken from him, he has nothing else.

                    Lemule beats Cotto and no amount of GGG hating is going to change that.

                    I like Cotto but even I know his limitations and trying to ignore them just makes you a fan boy.

                      Lies and more lies. First lie: Martin Murray was the best GGG win - not Geale. The one who was robbed against Martinez. Another lie - "lessening how great Geale was for GGG" - this was Geale after brutal KO and weight-drained on top of that. Not the same.
