Comments Thread For: Saul Alvarez, Jose Cotto Prepare For a War in Las Vegas

They call him canelo because of his red hair, like cinnamon not because of his white skin. Many Mexicans are " white " ( Chavez Jr, DLH, Chavez Sr.), I hope Saul wins but Cotto is too dangerous for him now.

This cotto is moving up too many pounds to be a real threat, but then Floyd got to beat on a blown up Marquez, so why not? My problem is with paying to watch Alvarez spar on pay per view. This should be on ESPN for free.
