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

[Nay_Sayer]

Not at all since we're talking about the 160 pound division here. There has never been a time when GGG said to a fellow 160 pound fighter "eh, you don't bring enough to the table" no way.

Bull Shi'ite.

Team Triple Duck has been ducking Lara using that very same logic...

cotto-canelo will be a draw.. golovkin will have to wait another year

LOL. **** no please..

[aboutfkntime]

All paper champs. Leonard Lalonde lives in infamy. Of course Oscars 6th and PACs 8th titles were paper, no one claims otherwise. But Floyds 5th is the paperest, since it looks amazing on paper. Who'd suspect a 2x, unified, lineal champ with a 3+ year tenure would be too small to face all comers at the weight? Will only fight blown up dudes at full 154.

What sort of fkn moron are you ?

Mayweather beat the best guy at JMW, to become the universally recognised (and lineal, seeing that is so important to you) champ at 154.

Not only did Pacquiao not fight a champion, he did not even fight a JMW..... he fought a slow / plodding / come-forward / skillless / WELTERWEIGHT / bum, for a vacant title..... AND he did it at catchweight.... AND he did it using 8oz gloves.

Go play in traffic !

GGG is no exception to being a fraud. Wants fighters to fight the full weight of 160 but refuses to fight Ward at the max weight 168 double standards at its finest I hope Cotto beats Canelo, ditches the belt along along a huge paycheck and gives Golovking the finger.

Great post !

I agree 100%

green'd

Isn't there at least one rematch clause in effect for this fight?

Not at all since we're talking about the 160 pound division here. There has never been a time when GGG said to a fellow 160 pound fighter "eh, you don't bring enough to the table" no way. Obviously with Ward there has to be some sort of incentive to move up in weight and risk his WBC mandatory position and stuff like that. There is zero obligation for any fighter to move up in weight, just like there was no obligation for Ward to move up to 175 to fight Dawson or Kovalev at 175, or Rigondeaux up to 126 and so on.

It's some bit ch sh it when guys in the exact same division wont even fight each other. Nothing worse than that in boxing and there are no excuses.

That's because he has no drawing power. He's now in a division with Cotto and Canelo... So someone has to be left out, has nothing to do with ducking someone in your division there simply isn't triple threat matches in boxing.

And there is no obligation for me to give credit because you will face certain guys at 168 and not others. Beating guys you are heavy favorites against, there is no obligation to be impressed. So when I'm not impressed, it's not hating it's called GGG has hit his ceiling. And the only way to breakthrough a ceiling is by moving up.

Lara is a 154 pounder, but you're right. That actually makes it much worse.

It's just GGG and his team. They talk constantly about how they are avoided and ducked yet OPENLY take the easiest option for the most pay. Yet, they also complain when it's done to them. How his groupies conveniently ignore this is really beyond me. They are just as delusional as him and his team are.

Yeah, I understand that but Lara has called out the Triple Duck @ 160lbs and has fought at middleweight before..

Pac won his paper 8th title over Marg. Floyd won his 5th off Cotto, who'd just demanded a CW with rehydration clause from one eyed Marg. Can you fill in the blanks, moron?

You still haven't given me the names of other lineal, unified, 2x, 3yr+ reign paper champs with 0 defenses at regulation weight. No examples of such guys using the "too small, too old" excuse

[HeroBando]

Yeah, I understand that but Lara has called out the Triple Duck @ 160lbs and has fought at middleweight before..

Lara's manager never even approached Gggs people, despite saying he'd do so after Delvin. In fact he said they're aiming for Andt Lee, and if that doesn't work out, they'll try to make the Ggg fight.

It's no surprise, he's got little confidence in his guy winning
