I like Cotto but you guys act like he went back in time. He beat a shot to s,hit Sergio and D.Rodriguez. Cotto should see if he can beat Trout before he goes for Canelo.
Dont worry bro. Cotto **** are in for a rude awakening when he fights some one non-bum/healthy.
Canelo's opponents:
Shout out by floyd, disputed decision > lara (many feel lara won), went the distance with old man mosley, ko'd old fat balomir, coudln't put shot angulo away, beat up on unranked welterweights.... yea canelo is such a killer
Canelo beat Trout whereas Cotto got outclassed by him.
Who doesnt lose to Floyd? Cotto did too and got handled badly on the fringe of being knocked out. Canelo was just boxed to death.
He beat a credible fighter in Lara (115-113) with a tough style who had owned Trout the fight before.
Couldnt put Angulo away? Did you see the fight? He was tagging him all night. Who cares if he quit or if the referee stopped it. You bring that fight up as if it was something negative about Canelo lol.
A lose to Trout, a win over FNF hall of famer Delvin, and win over una-rodilla Sergio is mediocre at best.

Sorry canelo fans. His streak of looking horrible in fights continues and he gets ko'd this time. Trout was a controversial win. Laura was also. The floyd fight made him look extremely amateur at best. And angulo was prepared for a pro wrestling match that day with his fake punches.
Cotto fans like to act like he won more than 2 rounds :lol1: Should I bump the post fight thread where cotto fans were screaming robbery? I can assure you not 1 canelo fan with the exception of cj ross thought that it was a robbery. :rofl:
Nope, they are excuses. I can make a list to why Canelo lost to May, but I don't want to sound like a whiny b1tch, and I wouldn't believe it anyways. I don't believe in excuses and Cotto never avenged his defeat so.... yeah.
:lol1: They can be both excuses and facts at the same time. Let's see a list of why Canelo lost to Floyd. The only real answer is because he's not good enough. 12-0, or at best 11-1 is just a reflection of the talent gap.

at 23 already fought trout, floyd , angulo and lara and he is 3-1 on that streak... not bad... lets not forget that he took over trout and lara on his prime while canelo was still young for those fights and while both fights were close is hard for any fighter to look good against those styles.. now if you are going to criticize canelo for fights he took when he was like 20 or even younger then i wont even debate there...
You can call them excuses, but they are the facts. I've posted this many times here and on other boxing sites; preparation is key in all sports. The under prepared will always lose to the guy that is fully prepared, even if they are a lesser fighter.
Cotto and Canelo will fight soon. There is no point in calling out ducking at the moment. If Cotto retires and does not face Canelo, we can call it a duck. But both are still active and in each others weight class. Their paths will cross, no doubt.

This is pretty much the reason you cant pick Cotto to win. He hasnt done squat in his last fights to say he'll beat Canelo. Give me Canelo by decision, he might make Cottos face look worse then post-Pac post-May post-Trout esque. Well scratch post-Pac, his face looked like pink popcorn after that fight.

Cotto/Trout was the culmination of a lot of factors that resulted in the worse showing of Cotto's professional career. Bad camp, uncommitted trainer and charge, no game plan, and terrible conditioning. Trout's best night came on Cotto's worst night. If a rematch happens in the future, Cotto destroys Trout fairly easily.
all of those factors had nothing to do with the fact that a feather fisted like trout did that damage to cottos face, cotto is following rosados path, too many wars...
i just dont see his face holding to the later rounds if he doesnt get ko...
Does not happen. Cotto ducked twice already
Let's revisited history...
duck 1) in lieu of garnering 4th division title
duck 2) in lieu of potential sweepstakes with Money May
yep Cotto is shook big time by the beast canelo...
you people need to remember cottos last 3 fights
lost vs trout
win vs a nobody
win vs a cripple who was cashing out
so yeah canelo wins

Bunch of BS excuses. Cotto never avenged that defeat nor has he shown interest in avenging that loss. Even the washed up Trout now, who got KD by some no name Australian, Cotto still wants no part of. :lol1: And here we are about talking about Cotto fighting Canelo after ducking him twice haha give me a break.
Prove that cotto ducked canelo twice cuz he didn't want to fight him. Not opinions or something that fits your agenda. PROVE IT!
Offense vs offense Cotto gets folded like a napkin and you know it lol Cotto has zero defense beside blocking with his glove while rolling punches. :lol1: Canelo at least has head movement. Better combinations, harder puncher, more punch variety. Cotto has a left hook, cool.
Cotto has better footwork, faster handspeed, better ring IQ.

Triangle theories.... how nice. Red K sent
