Comments Thread For: WBC Prez on Cotto-Canelo vs. GGG-Lemieux - Weight

[BrometheusBob.]

So basically he is ok with a catchweight.


Yeah all I gotta say is

GGG fans:

But..... but..... but..... he's mandatory so he MUST fight at 160


and yes I still say the fight should be at 160.

[bigjavi973]

i have no problem with a fighter coming in at 155,but my problem is when you want the opponent to weigh the same,the limit is up to 160,let the opponent weigh was is comfortable for him,the other way they are just being drained

This right here.

[bigjavi973]

Golovkin: "160lbs only, no cw"

Cotto: "157lbs or no fight"

Golovkin: "Ok, lets fight"

Cotto: "Aaaaaahhhhhh"

When did that happen?

[tiliheels]

Ur saying this all while ur hiding behind and peeeking over Andre Wards shoulder

this aint about ward..ggg wants no parts of him and get that and i'm totally fine with that..it just means he shouldnt go down as the better fighter in any publication imo..

i dont have to ram the ward point over and over again..ward doesnt even talk about these cats bc he know they dont want it..so w/e

[tiliheels]

You're are the only one crying in this thread!

No catchweight for a mandatory defence unless both men agree to it ... now stfu and learn how to read.

if u dont understand Roc nation might have the toughest negotiators in the business..and if they win the purse bid they will rake ggg over the coals if he doesnt adhere to their every demand...tbh i dont even think cotto will fight ggg even at 155..he's has better money fights with floyd possibly if he returns or a canelo rematch if it turns out to be a draw or close fight..they'll make ggg step aside and he'll do it again putting his career on hold like the dummy he is..he doesnt care about the title he's just beggin the champ to fight him no different from thruman, porter or khan

no

he said that a cw can only happen if both parties agree to it. mandatory defenses must be fought at the full limit

geale and canelo aren't mandatory defenses and thus cotto can flex his bargaining muscle in the negotiations

I really don't think GGG cares so much about the dollars he just wants that strap

You clearly have no clue when it comes to negotiating for. MANDATORY defenses. there are purse percentages amd weight stipulations already set in stone for mandatory matches

This guy's knowledge of boxing begins and ends with Floyd Mayweather, so he won't even know what a mandatory defence is ..
