Comments Thread For: Golovkin, K2 Firm That Cotto Title Fight Would Be at '160'

[HeroBando]

Being reading some posts on this and other threads and it's very clear that many of the ppl that post here never stepped inside a ring or boxed in their life!

A lot of ppl are trolling on GGG but they don't know jack ***** of boxing so they are easy pray for these scam artists (HBO & GGG's team) and then when you go at them...they get very sensitive too....lmbo....take it personal and *****!!!

Barcham profile pic is a good example...when you see it you notice how wide apart his right elbow is from his body...uppercuts are considered long punches, this is why a very selective skilled list of boxers are known for their uppercuts (JMM, Tyson, Jones Jr...)...going back to the pic...I know some will say his just hitting the pads but he des that in fights too, he's lucky he's being fighting 30+ class C-D (Delvin Rodriguez) type of fighters. Not only that GGG is a slow fighter...i'll give you he's strong and got power but that's it.

If he throws that punch for example to Canelo...lord...Canelo can either get an over the top rt straight or left hook to the body...maybe even both punches cause he got a lot faster hands than GGG....Cotto even a lot smaller than him...if you give him openings like that will have a field day!!! This is just 1 of many GGG flaws (limited or on existing inside game, scares, positioning is horrible, reaches, wide elbos, slow...etc!!!) He's only chance against better competition is his power, that's it...and please don't even put him with Ward...that would be a ****, an abuse, a total annihilation.

Not hating on the guy...he puts gloves on to put food in his table for his family, but stop w/ the P4P bs and the killer image!!! He's just an average C level at best fighter!!!

Yeah forget about Hopkins, Naazim, Hagler, Froch and Hearn raving about his, this sorry alt sees right through it

Oscar conceded to Canelos demand for a floyd fight. Oscar sure as sh it didn't want it but CAnelo did. Canelo threatened to fire him if the fight wasnt made. Oscar made the cfight and Canelo got whooped. Canelo since has had a little more respect for Oscar since.

No he did not, Schaeffer did.

Hoya was in rehab at the time.

GBP had been steering Canelo away from Lara, but Canelo demanded it.

Hoya was fuming when he heard that Schaeffer signed Lara/Canelo.

I remember it very clearly.

Canelo is the man for demanding that fight.

not sure how the situation is comparable.

Why should GGG accept a catchweight? Cotto is the 160 champ. I have no doubt GGG beats Cotto at a catchweight, but there's literally no reason to fight the 160 champ at any weight but 160.

Floyd is the 154 champ. GGG was willing to move down to fight the guy at a weight where he was the champ.

* he demanded one from Ward
* he stated anyone from 154-160
* Cotto is the A-side

Or, he can fight {insert bum here} for the vacant title.

Its all good ^^

If Cotto never had the belt, GGG would never bring him up, which is why his name was never mentioned prior to the Martinez fight. Whoever has the belt, Golovkin wants them, regardless of who they are.

Untrue. Ggg has been wanting to fight cotto for years now. Before martinez. Ggg wants a big name. Cotto and floyd are it. After mw title was obtained by cotto ggg got louder with his calling on cotto. I'm certian cotto has been coming out of ggg's mouth for at least 2 years. Likely 3.

He doesn't have to fight anyone for the title. Sulaiman himself said that if either canelo or cotto refuse to fight ggg,he automatically becomes the full wbc champ. Either way,cotto or canelo would look like b*tches for vacating instead of defending against their mandatory.

[NachoMan]

ggg should just accept the catchweight.. i mean if his fans believe he would murder floyd at 154.. then why cant he also murder cotto/canelo at 155-157. . if you call that getting an advantage or weakening your opponent then i better not hear another word about ggg willing to face floyd at 154.

cotto said hes fighting everybody at catchweight, not just ggg..hes consistent with it.. ggg on the other hand will fight everybody at 168..except ward.

He's consistent with it??? That almost sounds like a compliment. He's been nothing but a consistent p-u-s-s-y. Cotto fought Martinez at 159lbs. Let's see if he dares fight GGG at 159. He's so damn scared he'll probably demand that GGG rehydrate no higher than 135lb.

At least that bum will have a pair. You are the worst fanboy and you have zero confidence in your fighter.

[mathed]

How are they too small but then want GGG to fight Ward. Both of them campaign at 160 division... Cotto is the champ there and Canelo has fought in the 160 division every fight since the Floyd fight.

Ward has fought 3 LHW fighters in a row now. He drained one to 168 (Dawson), he fought a guy who couldn't make the 168 limit (Rodriguez), and he fought there last time (Smith).

We get it, you want GGG to lose. But at least have some sort of integrity here.

Green K for a great post. True story.

[Pigeons]

I don't think Golovkin has the courage to fight Ward. He is comfortable fighting popular, but overmatched opposition for large portions of HBO's budget. Hard to blame him, that's the kush life.

Again ******, Ggg is the mando. Either Cotto makes it worthwhile for Ggg to go down, or he drops the belt humiliatingly
