Comments Thread For: Canelo: Cotto Wanted Our Bout To Have His Title at Stake

[PRBOXINGCOTTO]

The belt is not on the line that's ****** stop ****ing it up wbc ggg holds no weight let cotton defend it against canelo ggg is not a draw brings nothing to the table and already has a fight set up with Andy Lee so he has no intentions of fighting the winner next

[i'm a fun haver]

I think GGG would absolutely destroy Lara. But the reason given or not fighting him were idiotic. The notion that Willie Monroe was more known amd a better draw were patheic.

Reasons like the fact that Lara can't fight on HBO?
That is idiotic to you? Reality is idiotic to you? lol

Monroe Jr was the highest rated available challenger in the WBA rankings...AT MIDDLEWEIGHT.
More importantly, Monroe Jr was able to fight on HBO.

Lara is none of those things. He is just talking because it is safe to talk.
Some of the dumbest mother****ers on the planet are Ward/Lara "fans" lol

I don't think this kid Canelo is scared of anything and honestly whether they meet at a catch weight or eventually at 160 he will fight Golovkin.

[Toltec77]

Basically Canelo is saying if he wins, he vacates the title to beat up on smaller guys at 154 until GGG retires. I will never forget the 30 day weigh in, Canelo at 168 in top shape. We now know he boils himself down to make 154. As long as the king GGG gets the WBC belt I don't care. Next!

Yes he will beat down Cotto that's the truth. but also remember that Cotto was the bigger guy when he fraught Pacquiao and still got his ass beat down. so no not all the time the bigger guy wins. plus its all fair if they both agree to fight at the weight on the contract, so stop *****ing about weight!

[KnickTillDeaTh]

I'm perplexed by these statements, so Canelo is blaming Cotto for the heat he has taken this week? I do recall Canelo requesting a catch weight of 157 when negotiations first began. I'm wondering why Canelo can make 157 for Cotto but not for GGG.

king ggg should of fought ward when he had the chance before he decided to start working towards light weight to fight kovalev. but no instead hes chasing around 154 pound fighters and well get ggg vs saunders yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Drunk Punch]

They are both so scared of GGG. A lineal MW champ who won't fight at MW and a SMW who only fights at 155?

WTF? This is un-manly behaviour.

Wow, some of these comments are far past idiocy

I think GGG would absolutely destroy Lara. But the reason given or not fighting him were idiotic. The notion that Willie Monroe was more known amd a better draw were patheic.

Lara talked his way into Canelo fight, lost

Why the **** does Lara get to repeatedly call guys out if all he plans to do is run anyways.

Lara doesn't deserve the fight because Lara doesn't fight.

Lara struggles to make 154.

Put it this way, Lara would be one of - if not - Golovkins best win.

Finally a guy with world-class skills.

What the hell else is he going to do if he refuses the winner a catchweight ?

Why make excuses for that fight, instead of just taking it ?

Who the **** has Lara beat that makes him world class?

His best fight he lost because he didn't even try to engage.

As what I've always said if canelo has no interest in the belt and then go's back down to 154 division I have no issue with that......look it's plain to see canelo knows at the moment he cannot beat triple GGG and I don't blame him....as long as he don't lay claim to a 160 belt and fighting 155 then it's fine....it ends in November 21 and after golovkin gets the belt....canelo is trying to do damage control......now if it was Andy Lee, David lemeuix,quillin holding belts would canelo say he don't care about the belt lol.......golovkin is a different beast and canelo knows that....golovkins management will need to pay top dollar to get the bigger fights...marvin hagler had the same type of intimidation

Andy Lee once already agreed to fight him and is actively wanting the belts.

Good, about time..... now sit down and STFU

You don't mind riding the short bus do you?

They could have fought even at 154 for that belt, if they agreed upon... (Remember: Floyd defended his 154 strap at 147, when fighting Maidana...)

... The could have fought even at 140 for this MW belt if they wanted to...

Their only problem is that they have a "mandatory" waiting...

WBC wouldn't sanction it lower than 155.

The belt is not on the line that's ****** stop ****ing it up wbc ggg holds no weight let cotton defend it against canelo ggg is not a draw brings nothing to the table and already has a fight set up with Andy Lee so he has no intentions of fighting the winner next

You don't seem to get it.

GGG and lee may happen. But not before he either beats Cotto/Canelo winner or they vacate like the little *****es they are.

I don't think this kid Canelo is scared of anything and honestly whether they meet at a catch weight or eventually at 160 he will fight Golovkin.

If you are willing to vacate a MW strap and Lineal, face the kind of backlash Canelo is facing, all so you don't get in a ring with a certain fighter, then your scared.

Canelo isn't scared, then he won't vacate and he'll fight GGG on the WBC contracted weight.

Canelo has come out with multiple excuses now, and most have called him on them.

He is saying he is a 154 fitter, although he has fought 155 four straight fights once Cotto is done.

He knows he wanted a 157 CW. He knows dang well he is a MW, he just knows GGG whoops him bloody, and he figure the backlash is better than getting beat bloody.
