Not as many as would tune in if he got the Cotto fight he deserves..........but to get the fight he deserves, he first has to turn the magical trick of generating huge numbers against the few guys he can get. It's like telling a Doctor to wash floors until a job for him comes up. Fucking hell.
<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/yBUehKh3vJY?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> The entire thing reminds me of the Jack Dempsey era. The good black heavyweights toiling away while some white heavyweights carve up the pie.
The entire rationale for this is a language, a lingo, that means everything in America but means fuck all anywhere else. "PPV Stars"....."Marquee"..........."Attraction".............."The Numbers"............... :shit:
You know, GGG seems like one of those fighters who would fight for nowt. Money is important for sure, but you just don't get that feeling with Golovkin. He'd fight Joe Bloggs over eight rounds for a copy of The Times of Central Asia and a bottle of water rather than not fight at all.
Thats a cool story but it would be a whole load cooler if he was black, left-handed and from Philadelphia, ya know, something the AMERICANS can IDENTIFY with. In the meantime, GGG needs to go and fight Cruisers.
Golovkin has as much chance of getting cotto in the ring as you do of luring an attractive woman onto your futon
"Luring".....is that how you operate, by "Luring" women.... "Come on on Mariela, I have......clean sheets, parquet floors, and a cleaner job for you" :: Why does GGG have no chance of getting Cotto in the ring??? Margarito got him in the ring, twice.
No, he's not. He looks more likely to make 154 effectively than 168. He fought 165 as an am 10 years ago so we may be wrong, but he just doesn't look like a guy big for 160 to me.
Cotto figures Manny will lose so he's waiting for a rematch with Mayweather. If he fights anybody in the mean time it will probably be somebody who poses little to no risk at all.
disapointing move by GGG. Sad that he seemed to be wasting away his career. If Cotto doesn't want to fight him, he should move up. He has nothing to gains by fighting these kind of guys.
