    There's no penalty clause if Geale comes in above 157. So if he weighs in at 160 the WBC would still have to recognize the fight. Would Cotto/Roc Nation pull the plug? (stolen from Steve Kim)
    That's been my problem with them all along. The exception has been becoming the rule for the simplest of "gimme" fights. Used as a technicality to ensure co champs retain the marketing tag regardless of outcome, trumped up as showcases or in Rod Salkas case...a well orchestrated infomercial set up. Catchweight Cotto is bringing it to near embarrassment with this insisting on having it both ways. You either step up fully or you don't. We have jumped the shark with catchweights..its fookin lunacy

    If Geale comes in at 160 and manages to beat Cotto I will laugh my balls off. I really will. It'll be the best result since Maidana did Broner.

    Well its a long shot for the guy so i am not counting on it but Trout beat Cotto ass so maybe who knows. Also you seem awful ok with Cotto fighting some weak ass shit after getting the belt and ducking GGG strait up when he is the champ. Wonder why you are letting it go this time let me think about it if it was Pac or Mayweather ducking then its a big deal but Cotto strait up ducks the best guy in his division as lineal champ. This is the first time he has ever been Lineal champ and he fucking ducks the best guy in the division in GGG thats kinda bullshit is it not.

    I'D RATHER SEE GGG VS CANELO AND WINNER GETS COTTO!!! Cotto has put many years into boxing I think about 14 years or so but has fought the best possible his whole career.
