Why?

Sounds like you're already going to be watching and paying for it anyway so............

I'm putting up a 100 stones too. I don't want to see no rubbish.

 

[patscorpio]

They dont have to load it, but at the same time, an HBO/showtime Pac/Floyd undercard might be the very last opportunity for certain fights to be made... Like Rigo/SantaCruz for example or Swift vs Master Boxer Algeiri

you and that master boxer thing with algieri lol

 

[HARLEM AL]

you and that master boxer thing with algieri lol

nikka I legitimately laugh out loud to that shyt.

 

[patscorpio]

No one wants to see Mikey Bey.

Floyd gotta pay off Julie Lederman just to make these background dancers look good.

I don't want to see Bey either but I want to see Bey knocked out again.

I don't know how yall lobby for cotto to get stripped when Sergio held that got damn belt hostage and didn't give GGG his shot for 2 damn years(never mind him losing to Murray)

Nevermind Cotto supposedly had no chance vs Sergio. Should he get stripped? Probably but there's plenty of champs that don't face their mandatory.

He shouldn't get stripped.

The winner of Cotto vs Whomever is scheduled to fight GGG in a mandatory defense later this year. I would LOVE to see Cotto vs GGG

GGG gonna beat him down for my boy Margs...The Tijuana Tornado

That GGG fight ain't happening. They'll have Canelo fight for it like they did Sergio. And it won't be against GGG.

I'm hearing it might go down all star weekend.... Either Floyd announce it once they put a mike to his face, assuming he will be at the Allstar weekend... Or he will say some shyt like stay tuned and he will most likely then announce it on his twitter.

GGG is the mandatory defense.

Miguel Cotto ordered to defend WBC title against Golovkin vs. Rubio winner
August 23rd, 2014
By Cameron Gillon:


The WBC have officially ordered that their middleweight champion Miguel Cotto defend his newly won title against the winner of October’s middleweight clash between IBO/WBA middleweight champion Gennady ‘GGG’ Golovkin and Marco Antonio Rubio. This is a good call from the WBC as Cotto is not seen as a real middleweight. He won the title off of a injury prone and past his prime Sergio Martinez. Rubio currently holds the WBC interim title which means this title will be on the line in his fight against Golovkin also so if Golovkin wins he will become Cotto’s mandatory challenger for the WBC belt and this will not amuse Miguel Cotto at all.

Cotto and his trainer Freddie Roach have not been vocal about wanting to fight Golovkin since his move up to 160. Cotto hasn’t even mentioned Golovkin’s name, but Roach went to the Golovkin vs. Daniel Geale fight and said he was impressed with Golvokin’s power and ability to cut the ring off from his opponent. But then Roach claimed Golovkin doesn’t have the star power and ability to bring in big pay per view numbers to get the Cotto fight. That’s a ridiculous statement in itself as you can bet a Cotto vs Golovkin fight would bring in some bigger numbers then his last fight with Martinez in June.

Cotto and Roach seem to have their head set on the big mega pay day fight against Mexican star Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez and Canelo has been vocal about wanting to win the 160 WBC strap from Cotto in early 2015, likely in May on the Cinco De Mayo holiday weekend. But this order from the WBC may just ruin those plans. The only way Cotto can face Canelo now is if he vacates his title and leaves Golovkin to face another fighter for the belt and move on to that bigger fight.

Problem with that is Cotto will be seen to of avoided Golovkin and will show that Cotto wants no piece of GGG and that will only make Golovkin look more dangerous than he already is with his incredible power and knockout ratio. I cant see Cotto taking the fight with Golovkin if he beats Rubio.

The WBC ordered the mandatory defense and since then, they have alloted Cotto 1 voluntary defense against whomever with the winner of that fight facing GGG



I hope the WBC doesnt go back on their word

How tf is GGG WBC interim champ when he holds a real belt with someone else??

That's not posed to be allowed N its the reason Matthysse asked for the catch weight with Lamont

GGG means more to the WBC as the Middleweight Champion than Cotto does who's looked at as very vulnerable against a natural 160lber




You seen that dive Marco Antonio Rubio took against GGG and Rubio didnt need to put his title on the line for that fight....but for some odd reason, it was on the line.
