Love seeing people pissed over cotto whwn froch is doing the same shit.

I make a thread about froch and everyone shits their pants and says he paid his dues......cotto has paid his dues also, a lot more than froch.

I dont like either situation but u cant back one dude then bash another for doing the same thing.

Froch said that he wants a fight in Vegas and then retirement. There is nothing wrong with it. He didn't pray on a sick champion from another weight class and then refused to defend against contenders from that weight.

When Cotto was going to fight Canelo, nobody was blaming him, but now when they are talking about him fighting welterweights for the MW title, he deserves the critique.

I totally agree dude!!!! I was ok with Cotto taking a fight with Sergio because it was easy money and he wluold get another division title. I never expected him to stay and fight true Middleweights. If he's allowed to defend against welters that is bullshit and shouldn't be allowed. I also hate catchweight fights, I'll throw that out there to.

So, he should give up the belt if he isn't planning on defending it instead of holding it hostage. It would be like Froch fighting a 154lber. The comparison isn't even worth talking about. The last big joke like this was when Pacquiao got a "belt" when fighting Margarito at 150, when neither was even ranked at the weight. At least Pac had enough respect for the sport to let it go. Cotto is too much of a diva for that.

The perfect match-up for him would be to avenge his loss to Trout to see if he has actually improved so much like Roach says. At least he is not a welterweight. K-9 said he was game for it too.

I can't stand Khan, he claims he can kick everybody's anus from 147-154 but is scared to face Kell....nothing but excuse after excuse not to face him and says Kell isn't on his level but gets upset when Floyd says the same about him.

Broner is a total douche, flamboyant punk who talks a lot and hasn't really done anything to anyone that any of us cares to give him credit for, I can't stand Mundine and Roy Jones needs to just go somewhere and have a hot cup of STFU.

Just to be clear, I’m not an Amir Khan, but I refuse to allow my bias to impair my judgement or impulsively ignore the facts at hand.

Amir Khan has been waiting in the wings for a shot at Floyd Mayweather Jr. He thought he was going to earn a mega-money payday, so he put his career on hold rather than risk defeat for a much smaller purse.

Floyd decided to fight Manny Pacquiao instead of Amir, so preliminary talks have already commenced (26th February) between the Brook and Khan camps.

Since you’ve both expressed the very same sentiments, I suspect you’ve not been following Amir’s career very closely?
I will believe he fights Brook when he is in the ring with him

I have been but this is new news to me but just as Tiny stated, I will believe it when he is in the ring with Kell because all he has been doing is waiting on the sideline hoping for a shot at Mayweather (one he has done nothing to deserve) and talking crap about being able to beat everyone from 147 to 154 yet claims that Kell isn't deserving of a shot with him.

At least Kell has a legit belt/title, he has never been KO'd like Khan and has never avoided trying to rematch the guys who beat him. Khan is BS and I won't be giving him a pass until he avenges his losses to Peterson and Garcia.

I get excited about most fights as long as it's between 2 top fighters.

Guys who infuriate me:

Ortiz - Very talented guy, but has little to no heart. He had no business losing to Collazo and simply quit. He also quit against Madaina and I still question whether or not he quit against Mayweather. It's crazy what he did against Berto, he showed tons of heart in that fight, but there have been more occasions where he's laid an egg and flat out quit.

Broner - I just can't stand this guy. He's not disciplined, he blows up between fights, he parties too much, he fucks nasty hookers and I hope John Molina beats his ass like Madaina did. He is very talented but he'll never be one of the best unless he changes a lot about his attitude and becomes more focused on boxing.

Khan - Another great talent, but he talks too much. He thinks he deserves the biggest fights out there with out earning them. I feel Khan is one of the best fighters out there (of course he has a questionable chin), his abilities are undeniable. His attitude turns me off though and the more he talks the more I hope he never gets a big money fight.
