Comments Thread For: Posturing Won't Get Cotto-Canelo Winner Out of GGG Bout

oh **** look, thuman rehydrated to 162, throw him in the ring with golovkin then (using the logic of the golovtard brigade)

canelo's 170 is NOT the same as golovkin's 170, period. 155 is a reasonable catchweight. why should canelo make the SACRIFICE of fighting at 160 (where he's never been) when it's always the B SIDE that must sacrifice something in order to get a career defining opportunity. you can't ban catchweights now just because your favorite fighter doesn't wanna stay in his B SIDE lane. golovkin has been making 160 since amateurs, he would have the edge if canelo moves up. the A SIDE doesn't give the edge. people think this sht is new to boxing, even Sugar Ray Leonard used catchweights to get advantages. and if it must happen at 160 then its more than fair to let canelo get a few fights in at that weight before facing golovkin. nothing cowardly about it, boxing is a business, canelo is the only one bringing fans and money to the table, if you don't factor that in then you're an idiot.

Canelo or cotto will just give up the belt instead of fighting ggg at 160..

Nobody can force guys like canelo or cotto to fight ggg...

The Cotto-Canelo winner giving up that MIDDLEWEIGHT title rather than defend against Golovkin is a clear duck.
I'm sure you will defend that though
There are no "a few fights" to get used to the weight lol.
The winner has 15 days to decide if they will honor their mandatory obligation or duck.

What elites did he duck ****-for-brains ?



Ward is daring to be great by signing Kovalev..... Golovkin will not even fight the little guys despite them being huge paydays and his best win.

Golovkin said he could do it.

Ward hasn't signed to fight Kovalev, and saying you could do something doesn't mean you have to do it if you don't want to.

GGG doesn't need to go down to 155 for Cotto or Canelo to get the WBC title.

Golovkin said he could do it.

Yeah, and Andre Ward said he could beat Klitschko.

And he hasn't signed to fight Kovalev.

Wasting time talking about this there not Cotto or Cenalo vs GGG

GGG better hope Lee wins or he will have to move to 160 without the WBO title..

Cenalo vs Rios/Bradley winning at 155, Cotto vs Rios/Bradley loser at 155 or hell if the fight is good Cotto vs Canelo 2

[ShoulderRoll]

canelo/cotto fight will do great PPV numbers (proving the golovkin fanatics wrong that said "PPV is a dead market" to excuse those ****ty numbers)....

Oh my god. Were there actually some Golovkin stans that claimed PPV is a dead market after the Lemieux fight?

I can't wait until November 21. Certain people are going to get a harsh reality check about popularity, A-sides, and what it means to be a legit PPV draw.

[Bigg Rigg]

Winner should fight GGG at 160 limit. Nothing more to say. Fight or give up the belt.

Don't think giving up the belt is gonna be that big of problem for the winner. That No Bueno for Golovkon. WBC announcing GGG is the full champion on their Facebook account does nothing for him.

lol they will probably call out Floyd in the post fight interview

[Sugar Adam Ali]

lol they will probably call out Floyd in the post fight interview

And floyd fighting either in a mw catchweight lineal title fight is probably the biggest fight in boxing besides floyd-manny 2, and would muffle the outcry of ggg gets skipped over
