Loeffler said Cotto is the reason GGG isn't fighting Canelo in May

So if the fight had been in May and Canelo won, the plan all along was to let him have one defence before forcing him to fight them? Because that goes against a lot of the public comments that Loeffer was making back then about how the winner 100% definitely had to face GGG next for them to be OK with it.Comment

I guess because the Cotto fight would have already been over a year in the making. The way he explains it sounds like the plan all along was to allow Canelo a voluntary defense if he won in May.Comment

If Cotto would've won he would've fought GGG in November 2015.
It seems like if Canelo would've fought Cotto in May and won Canelo could've made his voluntary in November and fought GGG in May 2016. So they were gonna give Canelo a voluntary from the beginning.
GGG only fighting 2 times next year is big news also. And also Loeffler doesn't plan on fighting a catchweight.Comment

I'd like to see GGG face an opponent who isn't gonna fold before the fight even starts, these glorified mismatches against the likes of Lemiuex and Canelo haven't a hope in hell. A competitive fight/s and I will begin to take an interest in his fights, DeGale, Ward, the other title holders at 168 for instance.
So basically you're saying he's so good that he needs to fight someone 8 lbs heavier then him to prove how good he is?Comment
