    Is Cotto that guy? Is he the first one to step up and get GoodBoy'd?:think
    I think he runs from a GGG fight quicker than you can say Al Haymon:lol:

    It's time for Golovkin to put up or for his fans to STFU. The Matthew Macklin 3rd body shot is not enough. Do something like Cotto and we will all be at your feet. At the mean time, silence is a virtue.

    So you agree, Golovkin should get a crack at that lineal MW title?

    how many times cotto needs to step up he fights everybody hes not even a middle wieght, let alone and light middle. if anything GGG needs to step up and fight in the super middle weight class with ward, froch ect..

    Total bollocks.

    Cotto beat the lineal middleweight champion and if he stays at 160 he should fight Golovkin as he is the accepted number 1 in the division. If he's staying in the division and wants to fight the best then the best is the God of War.

    If this was a one time thing and he's going back to 154 fair enough he's accomplished a major feat in becoming a 4 weight world champion.

    Finally Golovkin is a middleweight so he doesn't have to go up to prove himself at a weight he's not fought at.

    Because as someone noted earlier in the thread - the professionals whos jobs are to objectively evaluate matches and opponents are high on the guy.

    Forget the internet for a second, when guys like DiBella, Hearn, Peltz, Shields and so forth are classifying GGG as a monster there is plenty of justification for fans to do so as well.

    I know. I mean GGG doesn't use the shoulder roll and he doesn't even speak Spanish?
    Why all the hype, right?:patsch

    GGG and Cotto aren't on the same level. Cotto is superior to GGG in everything but power. You guys are high.

    4 rounds? It wouldn't have gone past the second. And in the past i defended him, i was sure he would have pridefully stepped in the ring with Good Boy, win or lose, pass the torce or beat the prospect.

    Nope, he just sold the title to a midget. Beat by another midget. Thank you Martinez, what a shameful ending.
