    Canelo is larger now, smarter and more talented. Cotto is fighting at a higher weight now, now add his skill and experience, he is more dangerous now than he was when Floyd fought him.

    This is good, so if VADA doesn't catch them using PEDS does that mean VADA is corrupt? Because apparently USADA not catching Floyd means they are corrupt, correct?

    Who said that it would be considered a big test ? Lemieux is more dangerous than these two guys. Golovkin will smash Cotto like an annoying fly and dispose of Canelo within 8.

    The boxing world, HBO, Merchant, and Golovkins trainer has stated they want Cotto/Canelo winner over Ward!

    But you try and argue Froch and Calzaghe are bums. So between them they've beaten the rest of Ward oppostion, or beat a guy that beat them. So he must only have beaten bums

    People who don't know boxing think Cotto is competitive against Golovkin. Cotto isn't a real middleweight, and isn't a top 5 154 pounder, his style doesn't translate into moving up in weight.

    Alvarez would be the best fighter Golovkin has fought.
