    K-9 isn't even relevant. Face the real contender in the division... GGG!

    Cotto, man I used to rate him for his cajones. Lately he is showing none.

    A real shame this one couldn't be figured out. Imagine it in June after Pac-May!

    Its COJONES mofo!!!!

    Cotto CAN'T fight GGG, he is too big, it would be a stupid choice for Cotto to accept the fight just to satisfy some idiot boxing fans. GGG is way too big for Cotto the same way that Ward is too big for GGG, see?..... GGG is in a bad place if you ask me, he cant move down to 154lbs because he is still too big and he can't move up to 168lbs because he may lose power.....

    I actually think Cotto could have success against GGG. Seeing Golovkin beat down Murray, it wasn't as impressive as his previous fights where he was more poised and calculated. Against Murray, he stalked and just threw haymakers, telegraphing his shots.

    Cotto would have to keep GGG in the center of the ring and move to his right to avoid Golovkin's killer right hand, and hopefully walk him into his left hooks to the head and body. Cotto is quick on the inside and knows his angles to step out. He should be focused on getting inside as backing up and keeping distance will just put Cotto in the position to be at the end of GGG's punches and his maximum power. I think Cotto can last, but he would have to be 100% on his game and Roach would need to employ a few game plans.

    GGG isn't holding a 168lb title hostage now is he? No one is asking Cotto to fight bigger guys, if he can't handle it, he needs to GTFO and go back down to 154.

    He telegraphed against Murray because Murray was a bigger guy in a shell. There was no point trying to be sneaky: he simply had to crack the shell. I was very impressed with his curved shots to the top of the head to make Murray go lower, and then when that failed, his body work. GGG didn't come there to play games with the man, he came there to break him down, and the % of landed by GGG vs landed by Murray tell the story as it progressed: he forced his bigger foe into a constant state of defence so he himself could afford to go all offence. And after 11 rounds and over 850 thrown shots he DID NOT LOOK TIRED.

    I honestly think the only time GGG looked fatigued was when he fought against Rosado and had the flu. Against Murray, I kind of think he made himself look vulnerable on purpose to lure in big name fighters. It seemed to have worked with Chavez. Hopefully Junior follows through with his taunts and ends up in the ring with Golovkin!

    See? See what? Cotto and GGG are in the same weight division, Ward is in the one above.

    Massive fail post if I've ever read one.
