Question, if Cotto agrees to fight GGG at 157-159lb

[Mr.Fantastic]

He should be happy he even got a shot bro. Lose the extra pounds or **** off.

Spoken like a true stan.

Spoken like a true stan.

Come on bro, the way boxing is right now, you think I guy like cotto is gonna make any accommodations for a dude like Geale?? No. It is what it is.

[JmH Reborn]

He wouldn't get credit either way - no sense in wondering. If Cotto beats GGG, everyone will say he's a hypejob.

Hell, Cotto doesn't get credit for taking the Canelo fight even though everyone on this site said he'd duck him.

Eh, what does it matter - its a bunch of basement dwellers passing judgment on a fighter. Got dudes in a coma now - Cotto nor Canelo needs to worry about these guys.

At the end of the day, GGG has proven to be small game - either of them two fighting him would be a gift to GGG

[Zaroku]

Ok, now that Canelo said 155 or no fight to GGG and possibly no fight until one or two years from now.
My question, if Cotto win loose or draw vs Canelo agrees to fight GGG at anywhere between 157-159lbs. Will he get any credit for stepping up?

I like your list, my question is? Why Haugen?

Because of his background, the guy use to compete in tough man contest in clubs. The guy is tiny and was tough. At that time there was a lot of tough competition and he held his own he didn't always win the big fights but he was willing to fight anybody. I was a kid at the time and I use to box my self and I was tiny like him.

Bro the thing is the winner of Cotto/Canelo will have to fight GGG in a mandatory fight by rules you can NOT force a catch weight on less boxer boxers agree to it.. All GGG have to do is say no and his the new WBC world champion...


Cotto vs Canelo is not a mandatory fight , even if its was both Cotto and Canelo have agree to the catch weight

Both cotto n canelo road leads to ggg. Whoever wins that bout will have to answer to the world if they don't fight ggg. Who else for cotto/canelo if they don't fight ggg? I just don't c it.

[Cinci Champ]

No.

160 .both canelo and cotto need to grow a sac. If anyone is ok with this than ward should come down to 161 or 162 or 163 or 164 or 165 or 166.
Plain and simple

so ur saying ggg needs to grow a sac and fight ward at 168?

[JmH Reborn]

No...that wouldn't be appropriate - GGG too small for Ward, 164 makes it fair

Cotto actually isn't a past prime former Jr. Welterweight, he's a prime 26 year old MW therefore no CW needed.

Its ok for GGG to ask for catchweights - he's giving the fans what they want to see; its not about the money but the glory
