    I think Martinez loses to Cotto based on his last fight and inactivity. Quillin got lucky against Rosado, a guy Golovkin destroyed while having the flu.
    GGG is a level above the rest of the pack at 160.

    Sure would suck for Golovkin if Martinez loses to Cotto. Might just as well start planning your move to 168.

    Then retire!
    You can't hang around as an active fighter and not fight GGG

    No. GGG starches Martinez.

    A GGG-Martinez fight won't quite be the blow-out that Tyson-Berbick was, but it would have the same effect . . . Some one's career would be ovah! And I'm thinking that's the fighter closer to 40 w/ physical deterioration, who would step into the ring facing a beast!

    Face it, GGG is the uncrowned champ!

    Yes, until somebody beats him or he retires. He's earned it. At this point GGG will probably annihilate him to be truthful.
