Canelo through his GDP puppet master will want to play hardball again..... wanting to coerce Cotto into accepting his conditions, stupidly claiming A-side status, or whatever the hell anybody wants to call it nowadays. Cotto, to his credit, is a pretty shrewd man himself, and does not need DLH pulling his strings in the background to know what he wants.

    Like he very clearly stated in the pre-Geale fight interview that was shown with Jim Lampley..... he's gone through a 14-year pro career, and has gone through all the hard knocks, to have earned the standing he now has. He won't be strong-armed by young-un Canelo or his puppet master DLH into thinking he has to cave to their demands. So if Canelo "really" wants to fight Cotto...... he's gonna have to show it at the negotiating table. Otherwise, he's just blowing smoke, and Cotto will tell him to f*ck off again.

    Just want to make that clear up front, for any ignorant minds that begin to foolishly throw the "D" word around.

    Capiche?

    If Canelo doesn't accept terms we know GGG will Cotto don't want that though

    You're probably right.

    I think both Cotto AND Canelo would rather fight each other.

    After that, it's all conjecture. But Cotto paused.... while Canelo said he'd "probably fight him later".
    Hard to pick which sounds more reluctant.

    Now that both Alvarez and Cotto have won it's time to make the fight. And really it shouldn't be that hard to make. Cotto has been stating for the last couple of years that money is his main motivation. He's looking for the business deal that will get him the most money. Fine. No problem with that. Twice Cotto has been offered career high paydays to fight Alvarez. Chances are his next offer will be a career high payday as well. In other words it'll be the best business deal. No reason Cotto would turn it down. At least I hope he wouldn't

    To be fair that is no shame GGG is the new Hagler.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    What on earth is everyone talking about?!

    I like cotto but he should not have to fight GGG.

    Ffs why is GGG in the audience picking on all the small guys?!

    Sign a contract with froch or ward and then we see how good you are!

    Cotto should fight canelo but must stay away from ggg because of the unfair weight advantage.

    ggg and hagler are no where near at this stage.

    Cotto has stepped up his game by moving up in weight fof bigger challenges...why is ggg not doing the same?!
