Don't post often but frequently come...this dude is delusional and he's def one of my favs...an easily made fight made would be him vs Pascal at a cw in Montreal..this guy is taking Winky Wright's advice.
Cotto in shape committed moving and throwing a stiff jab could school Canelo based off what I saw. He's a much harder puncher than Lara or Trout (not 1 punch but lands heavy), has excellent footwork and an INFINITELY more diversified attack than jab/cross Lara. He'll be throwing combinations and Canelo will be a sitting target. Plus he fights well in close quarters he just needs to stay off the ropes and not let Canelo's 170lbs lean on him on some Wlad/Povetkin type stuff (I doubt it, his experience won't allow that).
I think Canelo is good, but this is about as good as it gets....slightly above average and that lack of KO power if he goes to MW is going to be a serious issue for him...I think he knows it too so he can fight naturally smaller guys, hence why he's staying at 154. But I give him props for solid competition in the last year and a half.
