    "If we do get 'Pretty Boy' [Canelo] next and we defeat him, where else do we have to go?..I think we'd have to fight Golovkin. He's a tough fight, but he was exposed the other night [in the fight with Monroe] a little bit. His trainer said he took shots on purpose to make the fight, but I don't believe that. I never want my fighters to get hit."

    Sounds like a good plan, Canelo then Golovkin. Of course, actually beating Canelo will be no easy task.

    Golovkin stomps Cotto, but I love Cotto's chances against Canelo.

    And that's only because he'll get on his Cotto-cycle around thr 5th stanza. Otherwise he'd be obliterated if he went to war in the 5th

    Oh man, Golovkin is getting 7 figures worth of step aside money to allow Cotto vs. Canelo to happen. That's a sweet payday to do nothing.

    Canleo will stop Cotto. There will be no Cotto - GGG dance. BUT, if Cotto does win, at least GGG made himself look a little vulnerable so Roach will make Cotto face GGG.

    Cotto does not want GGG and that was clear in the post fight interview last night. Cotto and GGG will never fight.

    They would probably demand a catchweight of 150lbs or some BS.

    I'm still not convinced that Cotto takes the fight with GGG, if he wins against Canelo.

    If Cotto takes this fight hes going up in the ATG rankings just for that ha ha

    Don't like his chances though

    If he won, that would be unreal

    I hope so, cuz if Cotto gets past Canelo, that would be a mega fight.
