    Feel like both could comfortably make 155 so it can be valid for Cotto's title. Not really an inconvenience for either fighter

    Cotto seems unwilling to pay GGG a step aside fee - so therefore he'll be stripped of the title.

    If the has no middleweight title there isn't much of a justification for 155lbs.

    It'll be up for negotiation if it's at 154 or 155

    Cotto said he wouldn't let an organization like the WBC dictate his career. He hasn't said much on the step aside fee.

    Whatever it is I'm sure it'll be something pathetic for a LINEAL MIDDLEWEIGHT TITLE FIGHT

    155, for the Lineal/WBC middleweight title.

    Canelo's last 3 fights have been at 155 while Cotto's last 2 have been under 160 and he weighed in under 154 for his last fight...

    So 155 would seem the obvious likely answer.

    Canelo wants 155.6, but Cotto wants 155.4. It's been a real snag in the negotiations thus far.

    I think cotton is gonna fight yo sww tiist and be stripped.

    Wbc will give canelhoe first crack at GGG since CottHOE don't want none.

    Heiland will be the only one with a set to fight GGG
