Cotto needs to get that mole on his neck checked out. Roy should calm down
Headbutt left hook combination.
Cotto goes nowhere near GGG. Onward to a PPV moneyfest with Alvarez. And what's the betting the WBC find a way to reverse themselves and sanction it?
Yeah. That was a "mediocre" massacre of a fighter following a "mediocre" left hook.
I find it funny as fuck that the same fools who were dismissing Alvarez's win over James Kirkland are now gonna act like this was an impressive win for Cotto. Yeah ok. Kirkland murders Geale
Those compubox numbers are ridiculous... no way did Geale land anywhere close to 44%, Miguel boxed beautifully.
Oh no...... "Face-first" Kirkland was an elite fighter who succumbed to Canelo's skills.
Geale was nothing but a mediocre fighter crushed by a mediocre left hook.
Mouth says yes to GGG, body language says fuck off.
Come the fuck on. Cotto already stalling on the Alvarez fight. And he damn near stuttering when asked about Triple G
Same old garbage from you. Trash the opponent before he even fights. Remove any credit the fighter deserves before the fight even begins.
At the same time, build up the bum your own fighter is facing. So when the inevitable happens... your fighter looks better than he is.
Terrific strategy. :rolleyes:
:puke:
Roach looks like the stuck Max Headroom posing there
Stalling?? Wanting to spend time with his family immediately after the fight is stalling?
F*cking bullshit...... and you're an expert at it.
Cotto blew out Geale. Live with it.
Canelo next. ;)
Can't wait to see you in here after that fight happens.
At least he admitted he was not a middleweight. Thats a step. He should now do the honourable thing and just drop the title. Him and Alvarez dont need it for anything other then window dressing and most likely neither will honour the agreement to fight the real middleweight champ so just dump the baggage.
They're absolute nailed on guaranteed to fight each other next. It's a massive HBO PPV event. Mexico against Puerto Rico. And I think Alvarez wins. And I think Cotto probably thinks at the very least he has a good chance of losing too. But he'll still make the fight.
If it goes to points and is remotel close they'll do it again too. I don't think either of them fancy fighting Golovkin.
I can picture Alvarez-Golovkin happening when Golovkin gets older. GGG looked like he was running out of steam in the second half of his last fight. If he looks like he's slowing down and age is catching up with him in his next fights then Team Canelo will fancy it. If he goes to England and takes a battering losing on points or lin the late rounds to Froch then they may fancy it.
Not much difference physically. GGG one inch taller. Alvarez half an inch more reach. May be slightly out with these numbers though. :)
Not anytime soon though.
Canelo Not Heading To Middleweight Any Time Soon - Boxing News
It is an embarrassment that Geale was ever called a world champion he is garbage.
At least Cotto provides entertainment and knocks out his opponents. Some very rich fighters can not knock anyone out and run to stop any entertainment.
Headbutt left hook combo was a thing of beauty.
Although the highlight was when Cotto contemplated faking that he forgot English when Max asked him about GGG.
So now Geale is garbage eh. You really cant make this shit up. The guy comes in as half a man to fight for a title he was not allowed to make weight for, looks like death warmed over at the weigh in and appears weakened from the opening bell. Why the need for a catch with this garbage? Why any celebration at all over this win? Its tainted tuna. The Hbo kissing ass after the fight was almost as bad as the script given to Geale. The real middleweight champion was barely mentioned and instead they concentrate on yet another non middleweight fight. So speaking of garbage, what kind of trash is he going to try and pass on to Alvarez? I mean Cotto was under 154. Whats he doing at 160 when he has no inclination of defending 160? Why does the establishment allow this open cheating?
Garbage indeed.
That's what got me on rewatch. Not only did Kanye Cotto strip off the limit of division..he didn't even see fit to put on a 1/2 pound to at least come in at "middle" ;D. This is just embarrassing...and here he was being fawned over as lineal, all time great, elite and compared to Joe fookin Frazier with classic hooks :p. Yes. Catchweight got out of control and became its own monstrosity and mockery and the establishment just sits slack jawed and plays along. Feeds the ruse. This is a slippery slope for a sport that is already laughed at and struggles to be taken seriously.
Wow! Geale was asked to lose 3 whole goddamn pounds below his normal fighting weight. That has to be a first in the history of boxing!! No wonder the hatemongers are out in force. I'm surprised there isn't a lynch mob in front of Cotto's house right now. Because no other fighter in history has asked for a catchweight... and no other fighter in history has agreed to a catchweight. Deplorable! Cotto didn't weight 160 for the fight? Unacceptable! He should've been force fed a double helping of lasagna and half a dozen chocolate milkshakes before the fight, to pump him up to 160. THEN we would've had a fair fight. Personally, I would ask for a Congressional inquiry into this whole stinking mess, in which I'm sure all Cotto's fellow professional boxers would turn state's witnesses in order to bring this cheater to justice.... and boxing can proceed with the order and normality that it currently does now.
was busy and missed the fight, had to catch up took a quick look at youtube and came up with this; cotto looked damn good very good movement,

Geale is a middleweight, he was apparently fighting for the middleweight title. Dragging him below the middleweight limit where he's bone dry is both reckless, dangerous and a black eye on boxing and any attempts it has made to improve fighter safety over the years.
I've had nothing but respect for Cotto throughout his career but on this occasion I view him as nothing more than a cheat and no better than a guy who comes to the ring jacked up to his eyeballs.
A disgraceful and dangerous act of cowardice. That goes for anyone who thought this was an OK thing to do.
Ironic thing is, in all likelihood, he didn't need those 3 pounds. He would have outclassed Geale regardless, all he did was tarnish his win
