Why does Canelo get to lump himself in with Cotto in saying they're both too small for 160? Sounds like Canelo deserves the bigger portion of the "sh*t pie" here. My opinion.
He actually has. When Rubio became "interim" champion that made him mandatory for Cotto or actually Martinez at that time. Rubio decided not to execute his right (most likely paid a little cash) and stepped aside to let Cotto challenge Martinez. Rubio was going to get the next shot but a few months later he fought the Kazak failed to make weight and was crushed. The Kazak then became the mandatory. The Wbc then decided to go along with an optional as long as it happened in the spring of 2015 and that the winner fights the Kazak 3 months later. Cotto did not fight in the spring and then got away with fighting Geale in June after being off an entire year. Then he was ordered to fight Golovkin again and once again the Wbc at their bequest allowed Cotto to once again skip fighting him in order to set up a fight with their native son. Step aside money once again changing hands one way or the other. They allowed this by both men stating and signing to fight him after their match is completed. Both men after all is said and done have now made it perfectly clear that they have no intention on fighting the guy because they are not middleweights. So should Cotto win he would then be on course to duck him 3 times. I dont just blame the fighters either. The wbc is up to their neck in this bullshit and they as an org have ducked their own interim champion.

Broken record or not they should have left the freakin title out of the proceedings and based on the testimony of the people who signed their names to honour the fight it should now be declared vacant.
