    Canelo would take the fight. Say what you want about the kid but hes not ducking anyone. Not that it matters. Cottos gonna whoop Canelo and then retire.

    Right. Oh man can you imagine GGG on the undercard vs Quillin or Jacobs

    Not sure if thats possible though.

    With the whole showtime vs Hbo thing.

    I'm not too clear about all that.

    I think HBO does this. Twist the knife in showbox.

    HBO got the fans hungry and they are willing to pay up to see GGG, maybe not headlining just yet

    YES SIR!!! Some ppl really think Cotto will vacate and not fight GGG if he beats Canelo...YOU MUST BE CRAZY!! When has he ever done that?? you can literally say since 2000 that Cotto hasnt bow down or ducked anybody! hes took every fight he needed to and u really think hes bout to be scared or duck GGG??? NOPE!

    Now theres a chance he could lose to Canelo. I dont think he will, too skilled and to smart for Canelo at this stage. Looks like GGG has February then a May fight to hype the winner of Cotto-Canelo! I havent been this excited in a long time in boxing TBH! I love GGG! hes a monster and has showed hes ready to be the smaller Tyson of the era...just mean KO everybody. I think Cotto-GGG would be one of the best fights ever! GGG is a very solid fighter but we STILL havent seen him in there with the best so we just dont know how'll react to body shots, movement with great counter, maybe cuts, stuff like that.

    Its happen to alot of fighters in boxing, so many you cant name. when they look so great but they finally step up and dont sucseed. Anyhow this should be awesome!! Cotto-Canelo should be a classic then Cotto-GGG will be another! 2015 LOOKING TASTY FOLKS!!!! :bbb:bbb:bbb

    Cotto has more movement now ... better than before it will surely help him against Canelo and GGG

    ...it will be a competitive fight

    Floyd Mayweather was able to hurt Cotto with 10 oz gloves in the 12th round.

    Floyd threw less than 700 punches in 12 rounds... Golovkin threw 100 more in only 8 rounds.

    Cotto will get waxed badly. 3 rounds or less.... 4 if he is on his bike. Cotto is an in close fighter... not good at fighting from distance.

    Exactly :good:good

    You gotta wonder what happens when GGG gets hit 2-3 times then swings and misses? ANd Honestly Cotto WILL be the hardest punchers hes ever faced so then you wonder about that. PPL tried to tell me im the biggesy dummy every when I told them Cotto will KO Martinez. they said "Martinez was getting hit by a crusier weight in Chavez, no way a midget WW in Cotto will hurt Martinez let alone KO him out" Well what happened? and no hes knee doesnt take punches, his chin does so stop with the knee crap.

    ANyhow just saying Cotto is a beast and ppl know this.
