    Totally agree. Cotto should fight GGG next or vacate. Abel is smack on the money....again.

    Read my "GGG fans need to stop overhyping" thread, your barking up the wrong tree on that one. That being said I still think Canelo and GGG both beat Cotto.

    What is bigger in PPV Cotto vs. Canelo or Cotto vs. GGG..?

    Let's be honest, we know Cotto is not afraid of fighting GGG.... he will, but I think in 2015, not this year.

    Notable GGG Wins

    1. Geale ?
    2. Curtis Stevens 25-3 ?

    Notable Cotto Wins
    Champion at 140, 147, 154, and 160

    Shane Mosley When Mosley still had some sugar to him.... not the Mosley Mayweather nor Pacquiao fought.

    Judah when Judah was still Super Judah....

    Carlos Quintana (Look at what he did to Paul Williams the 1st time) Took on an Undefeated Quintana on his debut at 147 and destroyed him.

    Paulie Malignagii in his prime, back when Paulie was fast as can be and look at what a career Paulie ended up having.

    Randal Bailey when he was way closer to his prime in 2004, powerful fighter. Think about it, wasn't Bailey still a condender or champion a few years ago. Cotto whooped him when he was still poweful Bailey and made it look easy.

    Margarito = Without Plaster Win....

    Martinez = Destroys him at 160 debut, everyone said even a 60% Martinez destroys Cotto...

    Gave Mayweather all he could at 154, Took 11 rounds of Plaster with Margacheato...

    __________________

    That is nothing, look at all who Cotto fought on his way up.... Yes GGG is the future, and he is awesome, great, powerful but he hasn't been in there with anyone with a pulse yet.

    He doesn't need to. Let's be real here. Cotto is a much better boxer than GGG. But he isn't a 160 pounder. Just like when RJJ beat Ruiz. He wasn't a heavyweight either. Tito Trinidad and Oscar de la Hoya tried bigger guys too but lost. None of them should have fought BHOP.

    When you are giving so much size advantage you need to pick your opponents wisely. Any real 160lbs will be a big risk. So he needs to pick one who will make the risk worth it. GGG has some fans but he doesn't sell much yet.
