What will ensue here will be negotiations. Who gets what.... where the fight will be held.... when the fight will be held..... blah, blah, blah. 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.
