    Cotto will be decapitated.

    Maybe. But, Cotto looks better than he ever has under Roach.

    Cotto would be the most skilled fighter GGG has fought at the pro level and also has the speed and power to make him pay for defensive lapses. Would be a great fight. Hope it happens down the line.

    Cotto has a better chance than people think but an incredibly tough fight for a blown up WW like Cotto.

    I agree. Cotto's movement, hand speed, timing, quick jab and left hook to head and body is quite an ****nal.

    Like Cotto said in his post fight interview - He is not a middleweight.

    We are more likely to see Canelo fight GGG rather than Cotto.

    Cotto is too small, he should pay step aside money and fight Canelo.

    He's the lineal middleweight champ. If he's not a middleweight, he needs to relinquish the title.

    GGG showed some vulnerabilities in his last two fights eating a lot of punches. And, he's been quite left hook happy looking for that big shot. AND, his last fight his stamina was visibly not good. I think anybody saying that Cotto would be a cakewalk for GGG isn't being all that objective.

    Cotto's style doesn't translate into fighting bigger men well. Neither does GGG's.

    Guy's who power and chin is a massive part of their game don't do too well against bigger guys.

    GGG destroys him.
