Talk about going to school! For those who don't believe Floyd there you go. Cotto is just better than Canelo and Canelo is lucky Cotto got an off night against Trout because if Cotto fought Canelo he would bust him up.
And people talk about Canelos defense but Floyd tag him for 46% while he could bearly touch Cotto at less than 30%. Cotto gave Floyd a hell of a fight.

After Matthew Hatton, Mosley(s) and Floyd, just to name a few, another career welterweight?.
How about Canelo vs Lara or Martirosyan? (wasn't Lara supposed to fight Trout btw?).
Even Rosado , but not another (old) career welterweight.
By the way, yes, I think Canelo beats Cotto at this stage of their career.
Cotto isn't a Welterweight.

Yeah he was lucky Cotto got his ass wooped by the guy he wooped.I understand standing by your guy but sometimes is just delusional.Stiles make fights!!
Just cause Cotto gave a more "exciting" fight doesn't mean he's better. You do forget Trout took Cotto to school? The same Trout that Canelo beat.
Fuck it! Canelo vs Cotto in May.

Canelo only has one good legit win in his career that wasn't impressive to say the least. Let him prove himself before people make assumptions. IMO, Cotto outboxes him fairly easy.
Lol @ the angry Canelo fans taking their frustration on s.hit topic. I agree that Cotto did better, there's a thing that exist in boxing called 'styles make fight'. I do agree Canelo is a tougher fight for Cotto then Mayweather.

Canelo will beat Cotto, and I think rather easily. I think people are confusing the game plan Floyd had for both fights...Floyd played a lot smarter against Canelo and didn't take many chances because he knew what "could" happen. I don't think Floyd felt like Cotto every really was going to do anything to him. Oh a bloody nose....its boxing it happens but did Floyd ever look like he was in actual trouble in that fight? Cotto almost got KO'd at the end and lost 9 rounds.
Cotto lost 9 rounds? And Canelo lost what? I tell you, ALL 12 and was taken to school and did not land a single SOLID shot all night long.
Get out of here with that BS bro.

I agree brother! Something was up with Miguel that night. His camp was not right, his training cycle was cut short due to his mother, and may be there were some head bumping with Diaz? Reason why the broke up?
Departing the mountains way early hurt him big time and his offensive plan was not what it should have been.
Either way, Cotto > Canelo....!
Miguel should walk through Rod and set Cotto vs Canelo for 5 de Mayo 2014!
Canelo might wind up better than Cotto....Just like there was a time when "Nando" was thought to be the next superstar until he ran into Trinidad and later DeLaHoya. But as of right now? Cotto is a lot better than Canelo! And Cotto was a competitive fight for Floyd. Cotto hit Floyd enough to make Floyd uncomfortable.
I don't understand the hate for Cotto, the guy is a great fighter and has always shown a wllingness to adapt. YES as one poster put it Cotto was not silly enough to box Floyd, he went at him with a strategy that guaranteed more success. While the Cotto Mayweather fight was not close, it was hardly a mismatch and Floyd won but did not outclass Cotto.
I feel like if Cotto had not had his "Blue period" he would have done a better job against Manny. He actually was doing well and then seemed to cave in and Manny really did a number on him. This fight was seminal and has given the naysayers a lot of ammo they would never have.
Here is the thing about Cotto: even in the first chetarigo fight he was winning until he decided not to clinch and inexplicably let Margo walk him down. Cotto beat a still decent Shane Mosley, etc.
How does one compare a possible ATG to a young fighter with many years left to perfect the craft? AS of right now? Cotto takes Canelo to school, WATCH the Mayweather fight versus Cotto! Cotto is more technically sound than the haters think
The truth right here. Green K!
Yes, but that's like saying Mosely is better than Canelo. Although it's true, at this stage of his career Canelo is a much better fighter. Mayweather was just much sharper last night. I didn't think Mayweather could impress me any more but he did last night.
