He saw the same thing in Sergio, a 40 year old champ with knee problems.

    I give Cotto credit for being the one to dethrone him, but Sergio was a far cry from the guy who dominated MW for a few years. But in the end, Cotto saw some low lying fruit and grabbed it. He has no intentions of sticking at MW.
    Cotto still executed Sergio perfectly.

    He certainly did.

    Now let's all get together and make the Puerto Rican fight the Kazak. Floyd is finally fighting Pac, now let's get some other guys to fight each other.

    Cotto is a truly excellent fighter, and of course he is not 'scared' of anyone, but he is not really a middleweight.

    I'd love to see Golovkin against Stanley Ketchell, Carlos Monzon and Marvin Hagler

    What about a peak Sergio?

    I view Tureano Johnson as a top 10 middleweight. No doubt that this fight is a step back from Murray, who I view as the second best middleweight. At middleweight, I would like to see GGG against the Lee/Quillin winner or Cotto. Other than those matches, I'm not sure there's much remaining at 160.

    Let's not single GGG out for dominating a division and not moving up though. Not only has Ward done the same thing, it's worse because he's cleaned out the division almost three years ago. And now he's angling for a fight against Froch, a guy he already beat?

    Ward has been in court more than he has been in the ring, therefore it is a intriguing fight now against Froch.

    Think the loaded agenda is clear when ya have to use Boxrec rankings to belittle a guys calibur. Johnson is #46 anything just like Tarver is a #8 heavyweight. Exactly who is Golovkin ducking?

    You're never going to see it, you must like to torture yourself.

    It's either this fight or no fight and I'm a fan of fighters staying busy even if it's against lesser opposition. So I have no problem with this fight because it's between this or nothing at the moment.
