[QUOTE=aboutfkntime;18198425]little 153lb Cotto demanded a catchweight
EVERY single middleweight on the planet would have happily obliged.... everyone except for Mr "anyone from 154-168".....
then a year later, Golovkin was calling out JMW's at 154, and complaining that nobody will fight him
you can't make that shht up
how the fk can you possibly blame Cotto for that ?
oh, and then Golovkin took step-aside money
in poker, unless you call, you don't get to see the cards
in boxing, your guy failed to call, so you blamed the other guy, and then made up what you thought could be in his cards
why the fk would any human being do anything like that?
here is how it works..... your guy failed to call Cotto's "bluff"..... so, you do not have the right to have an opinion, either way..... and you certainly do not have the right to throw the PROVEN fighter under a bus, when the HYPED fighter failed to call his bluff
you are talking ****, to justify why lil'G refused to be a man of his word and shat the bed over weight..... and you are ready and willing to throw a PROVEN warrior under a bus in order to achieve that
which is why we hate you casual-fan cvnts[/QUOTE
I was never impressed with Cotto. Am I willing to throw him under the bus? No. I'm just giving you the facts. The Middleweight limit is 160 pounds. Canelo Mayweather and Canelo made a career out if catchweight fights. I don't hate catchweights but I'd rather see fighters fight at the official weights. Hearns, Duran and other old time fighters moved up and didn't ask for catchweights. As far as you idiotic idea that Middleweights fight at 160 pounds. Duran weighed 156 and Hagler weighed 157. It wasn't uncommon for fighters moving up to come in well under the division limit. They didn't ask for catchweights. They are asking for catchweights in modern times even though there are multiple weight divisions. Guys like Hagler stayed at middleweight and didn't move up but idiots like you can't grasp the idea that some guys don't feel the need to move up in weight if they are comfortable and making good money. If a guy moves up in weight that's fine but I don't measure how good a boxer is just because he moved up.
