Comments Thread For: Roach: Golovkin Exposed a Bit in Last Fight, Cotto Can Beat Him

[Lester Tutor]

no, they are your bullshht

these are the facts.....

"Gennady “GGG” Golovkin has rejected the prospect of a catchweight fight with Miguel Cotto or Saul “Canelo” Alvarez further down the line, insisting he wants to remain at the middleweight limit"

why did Mr " 154-168 " **** the bed over weight when it came to negotiating with little old faded 153lb Cotto.....?

Cotto is king at the Garden, why wouldn't Loeffler troll publicity that Golovkin would be willing to come down for the mega fight at MSG when the Geale bout had finished? Just doesn't make any sense. Golovkin's own words were that Cotto was a small middleweight, knowing that Martinez, Geale, or Bhop vs DLH, happened, says Alvarez is a disrespect to boxing but then is willing to fight a Welterweight in Brook and initially blasting the idea of a catch...

Golovkin is a clown.

My point is that based on your statements, Mannys not really an 8 division champ since he won the belts from cotto and ******o @ catchweights, you agree?

Technically he is as long as he fight near the welterweight limit but I am not a fan of it. If you want the champions belt then fight at the weight class of that belt.

no i didnt forget the canelo fight, it wasnt a demolition job but it was one sided, nto what i class as competitive. beating a shot margarito who barely has a functioning eye isnt much of an achievement.

And beating a guy on house arrest is?

Ok, well we're on the same page with that then. I'm really not a cw fan unless it's just to make a fight rather than for a belt.

Listen, Cotto is blatently full of ***** and ducked GGG. Come on man, the guy is on video talking ***** about GGG not facing any A-level fighters days before he fought GGG's sloppy seconds. And he said it with a completely straight face.

And we all know why Brook got the GGG fight. GGG had a date and a venue locked in for Chris Eubanks Jr. They got down to the wire and when the Eubanks got ridiculous with their demands their own promoter brought Brook to the table with the same offer in order to save the event. Lets not pretend this is the same thing as "I am the A-Side" Canelo Alvarez ( openly looking through lower divisions for his next fight. Alvarez could literally get any fight he wants and he went out of his way to fight Amir Khan. At least Kell Brook was a career long welterweight who held a belt at 147. Khan spent the vast majority of his career at 140, hasn't had great success at 147 and didn't have a belt.

I hate catchweights. In theory they are supposed to make it easier to see big fights but in practice they are almost always used by the "A-Side" of the fight as a means of weakening their opponents.

That's why no one really wanted to see a rematch. I had ZERO reason to watch the rematch. There is nothing Cotto could do to beat Canelo. That was his BEST plan/way of doing it without getting KTFO. He fought to the best he could and still lost.

??? Fighting Cotto and Khan at 155 FAVORED and helped them both out a lot more than Canelo. Canelo at 160 would of been TRULY unfair.

Brook would of had a MUCH better chance at 155 then the FULL 160. Don't be ******.

You know how hyped some of these guys tried making Wade sound??? Holy SHT!!! They brought up how F'n AWESOME he was in the Amateurs.

"He went on to have a highly successful amateur career having in the region of 167 fights losing only 9 of his bouts. He won the Silver Gloves five times, as well as the Golden Gloves and holds the record with Oscar De La Hoya, winning the Silver Gloves the same amount of times."

He ROBBED in his Shawn Porter fight and BARELY lost to Jacobs.


I saw 42 year old Sam Soliman get ROBBED of a win against Wade and told those clowns to F-Off. I wasn't buying their wolf ticket BS!

yeah dont know what the other poster was on about saying it was competitive, unless he thinks every fight that goes the distance is classed as competitive.
