Miguel Cotto will face Daniel Geale at 157

[corvette]

Cotto has history of this kind of thing so it's not so surprising. For every Pacquiao, there is a Yuri Foreman, for every Mayweather, there is a Delvin Rodriguez or an Alfonso Gomez or an Oktay Urkal or a Michael Jennings. They're not terrible fighters but they're not competitive matches. After the Martinez performance I was hoping he'd take that momentum I into a tougher fight. Certain other fighters have been getting absolute pelters for taking on weaker opposition. 😄

Nobody called Geale weaker comp when GGG fought him.

Most of Cotto's fights are at 140 and 147.
He has fought tough comp his entire career..and has paid his dues as an established warrior.

Cotto is not a MW and is about to retire...let the guy build a nest egg before he says goodbye.

If anybody should be looking for tougher comp it's everybody's darling Golovkin.

Nobody seriously thought Geale was a test for Golovkin did they? I agree Golovkin has spent the last 2 years basically fighting guys at a very similar level - Geale, Macklin, Murray etc. He needs to step up now and prove he can be as devastating at the very top level.

As for Cotto, he has more than paid his dues, but as a fan you want to see competitive fights. This fight shouldn't be competitive. I was merely pointing out that Cotto has disappointed in the past with his choice of opponent at certain times (Urkal, Jennings, Gomez), and for me, this is another fight that isn't really interesting - to me at least. It's a foregone conclusion.

Cotto vs GGG is not competitive.

Urkal, Jennings, Gomez
Came off loses...those guys are on the same level as the guys GGG gets credit for beating up.

Right , so the "lineal champ" v GGG is not competitive. Who gets the blame in your eyes? GGG . how come? He's just trying to make a living. So yet again, I ask you, who should GGG fight? Your answers in the best have been pathetic .
Ward - says he wants it, but guess what ? He's got a date in June and they've been looking at a "less challenging opponent" despite Ward calling out GGG in his 3 years out of the ring or whatever it is .
Froch - don't want it. Only wants Chavez.
Dirrell's - both got fights lined up.
Abraham - scheduled to fight Sturm
Degale - fighting Dirrell
Groves - mandatory to fight the other Dirrell.
That is the top 7 fighters in the division above. WHO THE FUCK SHOULD HE FIGHT??
Until someone fronts up to him, you're gonna have to keep listening to people praising him, and if you haven't got a solution (which you clearly haven't.) , tough shit pal!

Floyd didn't even get credit for fighting Cotto at WW...yet....you are ready to give GGG credit for fighting him at MW...

GGG has a fight too...just like the Dirrells....

They will all be available...but you know K2 isn't about taking chances.

Good thing Terrance Crawford doesn't share GGG's nutless approach to boxing...he's moved up and is looking to conquer another division.

GGG is too OLD to be fucking around in the worst MW division EVER.

If he is so great...why is the bar set so LOW for him
Everybody has to take chances but Triple trash.

You talk shite! How am I giving him credit for fighting Cotto? he ain't fighting Cotto! Cotto ducked him remember?
And by your way of thinking because GGG Has a fight lined up, as the Dirrell's have, they're all available. If the Dirrell's lose to Badou Jack, Degale or Groves,what then?
You still haven't said, who should GGG FIGHT? You can't answer because you don't know, because you're talking horseshit. Come up with some answers, and people might take you seriously.

Cotto's resume makes GGG look like a cringing coward.

A Golovkin fan can't call Cotto a ducker...especially considering most of his fights are at 140 and 147.

MW is the worst ever...you should want your hero to move from that hole and dare to be great.

You are thirsty for a hero...that's why you want lil GG to stay at MW where he is SAFE....

Firstly, GGG is not my hero . I just think that he is proven as the best in his division by far , whether its a good or bad division and people are avoiding him , making it difficult to make a meaningful fight . that can't be denied and I can't see how he can be criticised on that basis. When he loses, yeah , crack on and criticise him, but at the moment, you're just making yourself look like an irrational hater and a bit of a twat quite frankly.
More recycled Horse Manure in your reply, and I'll ask the question I asked you at least 30 posts ago that you still haven't answered. WHO SHOULD HE FIGHT?
no doubt we'll either go round in circles and you'll go off tangent, or you'll ignore this because as per usual, you haven't got an answer.

He can fight the winner of Andre Dirrell/Jack

Anthony Dirrell said he'd fight him.

I don't care who he fights as long as he "challenges himself" and "take some risks" like certain fighters are asked to do.

A better question is:

Who do YOU want to see him fight.....

Urkal, Jennings, Gomez
Came off loses...those guys are on the same level as the guys GGG gets credit for beating up.

In what sense?

And I'm sorry but Jennings was a leisure centre fighter. I liked him and he was a grafter but he was massively out of his depth against Cotto. He was a couple of levels below the mediocre opposition GGG has been beating up. Gomez was a reality tv star. Urkal wasn't particularly good either. Cotto has just come off one of the most devastating performances of his career and he's taking on a guy who's lost two of his last four. However you dress it up, it's a weak match up.

[THE THIRD MAN]

Geale is 3 inches taller and will have a 4 inch reach advantage, Cotto will want to be at his best in this fight. This is more of a danger fight than i thought.
