    And get away with fighting an average fighter at best below the weight division he is champion at ?
    Fair enough if he fought a smw at a catch weight but someone in the division he is champion at,it's a joke

    No doubt ggg would be far bette financially but that's ignoring the point that he's defending his title below the actual weight class he's defending.in theory he can win the title then start defending it at 154 it's pathetic

    I am yet to run into any GGG fan that was mentally stable or wasn't a newbie. Here's some information I highly doubt your limited brain will comprehend. 154.1-160 is considered Middleweight. Spread that information to all other fellow mentally incapable or newbie GGG fans.

    Wow, an enabler of A-side Divas leveraging financial clout into physical advantage in an actual bout slinging bile and bitterness. Whoda thunkit? :-:)-(

    He had one catchweight fight at middle so why don't you calm the hell down. I think people rather see Cotto vs Canelo at this stage right now since it's more marketable fight than Cotto vs GGG. I can't blame Cotto for taking that fight too since he going to make a lot more money than fighting GGG.

    In what capacity am I a ggg fan ?
    The thread is nothing to do with him fighting him,and ive no problem with cotto coming in at featherweight if he wants to but how can it be justified he made healerHave come in below the weight of the actual title he was fighting for ??

    Basically the people that side with Cotto's argument about size are saying if you want the MW belt, you have to drain down to 154 and under to win it.

    Cotto can't duck for too much longer. He is either to vacant or fight. You can't avoid your mandatory forever.

    The thing is he will have a couple of weak defences then vacate b4 fighting the best challenger thinking it makes him greater,I like cotto,he's been great to watch and a great fighter but boxing is beyond a joke now seriously

    Hardly surprised another GGG fan is mentally incapable.

    It's still Middleweight, try to get that in your simple mind.

    Try and get your simple mind around the fact that if cotto wants to come in under middleweight then fine,how can the world middleweight champion make a middleweight and not a very good one or one deserving of a title shot come in at under the weight of the belt he is fighting for ?
    In effect pac could have jumped to middleweight smashed bundrage for his title then demanded all challengers to the title come in at 147.
    How can it be called anything other than ludicrous ?
