Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Canelo Not 160-Pounder, GGG in The Future

[The plunger man]

That all sounds good, but really thats what you guys are going to go with? The GGG/Mexican Style marketing ploy is wearing thin. How did it workout for you guys in PPV buys Saturday? See thats the thing GGG'S team and maybe even GGG himself, think the Mexican fans are dumb or something. The fact is that Mexican people who follow boxing are passionate about this sport and are not easily fooled. Canelo is fighting Cotto for money and Glory the title is just an added incentive and like Pac did Canelo will be handing the belt over if he wins. I'm a Cotto fan and I am rooting for Cotto, but I'm not sitting here thinking Canelo is fighting at 155lbs because he's avoiding the guy/guys in the upper weights. He's fighting at 155 because he can, and he's not burden with sanctioning fees but still sells PPV'S.

As I said that's fine he is doing for pride and glory with cotto...but after there fight in November the mockery ends.....because who else can he fight besides cotto and get big PPV numbers ...there's nobody of any value after cotto anyway at jnr middleweight that can give canelo massive ppvs....I don't care about ppvs at all....I see a trend happening now......PPV are starting to decline after what we had with mayweathers last 2 fights.....canelo or cotto can move back down to jnr middleweigjt that's fine by me...just don't **** all over a division you don't even want to be in.....and one more thing.....we might have a leonard,mayweather or Oscar that can sell a fight with out any titles but a canelo without a cotto won't do great ppv with out no title on the line....id canelo gets stripped if he beats cotto and remains at 155 he will lose face...cotto not so much because he can make 154

You Pacquiao fans who accepted that catchweight for Cotto, but are flaming Cotto for wanting the exact same thing from the unproven Golovkin..... are the worst fanboy pos imaginable.

Why you quoting yourself muppet....u talk so much ****e you even forget what u say lol

Canelo is unprofessional, but that does not make him a MW dumb-ass

And that certainly does not explain why GGG is too scared to fight him.

Golovkin was not too scared to fight lil feather-fisted Floyd at 154, but it appears that Golovkin is too scared to fight the young stud Canelo at 155.

You must feel real ****** if you fell for that " anyone from JMW-SMW " crap.

Golovkin ducked a very good fighter at SMW, he ducked 2 very good fighters at JMW, and he also ducked a very good fighter at MW..... Golovkin has ducked at least 1 fighter in EVERY division where they said they would fight anyone.

They obviously only want to fight basic plodders at 160.

Stop drinking the kool-aid son..... it is not that people are not buying Golovkin's fights, they are not buying Golovkin.

Golovkin is badly failing to live up to his hype !!

First why you guys keep saying PPV's are on the decline? because GGG's PPV tanked? come on he is just starting to gain interest and no one knew Lemieux. Floyds fight with Berto did crappie because everyone is still pissed about the let down that was the May 2nd fight and no one was buying into Berto being a worthy opponent. As a matter of fact no one is doing big numbers unless it's a mega fight with two accomplished or well promoted stars. I hope both Canelo and Cotto fight GGG at some point regardless of what happens on November 21st but I wont loose sleep if it never happens. GGG will have no one I mean no one to help him sell a PPV without either one of those guys at 155-160 and the sad thing for poor GGG (who is very talented) is that he wont get to prove his greatness if he doesn't fight some one worthy soon, because the clock is ticking for him like the baby clock ticks for a chick in her thirties.

Canelo said this..... I AM NOT A MIDDLEWEIGHT !

He wants to fight Cotto, that fight has been brewing for years.

Surely you know that ?

Why blame Canelo because Golovkin is too scared to fight him at 155 ?

Golovkin was not scared to fight little Floyd at 154, but it seems that he is too scared to fight a stud like Canelo at 155.

Golovkin should want to fight Canelo AND Cotto.

Once again, you never actually do go back and read the moronic horse **** that flows from your fingers, do you? Never have I heard a person contribute so much inane, ass-backward logic than you, bro.

[NachoMan]

If Golovkin thought that he could win that fight he would have taken it.

Um, yeah, okay. Weren't you the guy who said the same thing about GGG running from a MW unification against Chocolatito at 112?

STFU ass-hat !

Don't ever reply to me and just cry.

State exactly what you disagree with and why, or fcuk off you whiney ****.

[DoubleStandar]

I been telling people for months that cotto is fighting GGG next if he won and canelo aint getting close to ggg at all even if he wins. Cotto win is better for boxing
