Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: Cotto Possible if He Beats Canelo Easy

[KTFO]

He avoided Paul Williams like the plague.

You mean when they both were champs at 147 around 2007-2008? Right before Quintana beat Paul, then Paul got revenge, then Paul moved up to middleweight? So...Cotto ducked Paul who just lost to Quintana, to face Margartito, then to later face Pac? Cotto sure took the easy route, great point!

This guy....is the Amir Khan of trainers...he just wont stfu. His fighter has yet to face any REAL opposition, yet he thinks he is the ruler of the division. GTFOH and STFU.

Just like Keith Thurman, In My Opinion, hasn't fought any true competition. The most impressive name on his resume is Robert Guerrero...Which we know, no fighter is the same after getting dismantled in a Mayweather fight the way he did.

If that's ya only example of Cotto's "history" of ducking...

its extremely laughable.

Cotto will not fight GGG. He clearly does not want that particular brand of Kazakh beef. After all, just look at the way he responded when Kellerman asked him about possibly defending his 160lb title vs GGG, right after he KO'd Geale.

Cotto went from relatively smooth talking to stuttering like Stanley the teacher from "6th Sense"

"uh uh..eh um...Max, do I look like true middleweight to you?"

Cotto did himself no service with that duck response.

Stutter???? No sir I actually just uploaded a video for all the haters like yourself who like to mis quote things.



He has never considered his self a true middleweight and will never fight at 160. Doesn't have to. He won his belt. Unlike Golovkin that has been quoted saying he would could beat anyone from 154-168. NoW all of a sudden he is just focusing on unifying.

But in a interview 2 days ago in New York he some how said he would only come down to 154 for Mayweather.

This comments by Able are meant to try and bait Cotto to a fight if he does win. The fight is not happening for the simple fact the risk is not worth the reward. GGG has no clout and as good as a fighter that he is, his $$$ is not up to par yet. GGG is just now staring in his own PPV when Cotto has more than a hand full.

That's fine and dandy if Cotto says that but if it's for a mandatory WBC fight, you cannot force a catch weight. If say, and this is hypothetically speaking of course since we know Cotto will not fight Golovkin, Cotto was demanding a catch weight and Golovkin refused, the negotiations would stall and it would go to a purse bid. When it goes to a purse bid, the fight is then made at the full 160 pounds and the purse is split according to WBC rules. So of course Abel is 100% right in that regard.

Again, Cotto is not going to fight Golovkin though and surely if the above scenario happened, Cotto would just allow the WBC to strip him of his title, as he doesn't care about honor and that sort of stuff.

Gigigis should accept a catchweight and get a career high pay day and a shot at the lineal title.why can't he go down for cotto? He knows he can't dictate terms hea

Cotto is the only one that manned up and faced martinez who was the most avoided fighter ever he had to wait to years for a title he was unfairly stripped. Cotto took the chalange and won

There's no agenda.....

put the entire quote, not what just fits your/his point of view.....

then you have the audacity to talk about people without agendas.
