    Tells me that GGG isn't too big to fight Cotto if Canelo isn't.
    Tells me that anyone who says that Golovkin is too big to fight Cotto is a disingenuous f@ggot

    His body is ready for 160.
    His chin isn't ready for GGG

    You guys are hilarious ...it's sad that even on a boxing board people don't know **** about boxing.

    13lbs is 30 days is absolutely nothing - your realize he just needs to touch 155lbs for the 10 seconds he stands on the scale right??? He's going to restrict his food and fluids on the Wednesday before the fight, have a couple workouts, hit the sauna the night before and have no problem making weight. He'll put on 15lbs overnight....

    Thats no uncommon or difficult for a any boxer thats 25yrs old. It's pretty common..


    Weight alone doesnt make you a middleweight. 5'8" is not big enough for middleweight - he doesnt belong there. He may be the same weight in the ring as GGG but he's giving away 2.5 inches, reach, everything. He's CLEARLY the smaller man and should move up in a few yrs for a good cash out fight.

    Canelo is 5'9" with a 70.5" reach.
    Golovkin is 5'10 1/2" with a 70" reach.

    Please.

    Also, there's no way in hell Canelo can wait a "few years" to "move up." He hasn't been able to make 154 for over two years!

    So he doesn't belong at middleweight, he can't fight at 154, where does he belong? He needs a special weight class just for him?

    It tells me he is doing the weight like this so he doesn't look a complete p**** when he refuses to fight GGG.
