Cotto beats him. His jab and movement would be too much for Canelo.
I honestly give props where it's due , Cotto is a hell of a fighter, but I can't see him outboxing Canelo.
Only thing I can tell you is that Canelo fought 3 of the slickest guys on all boxing weightclasses. Trout, Mayweather and Lara, He might haven't had a lot of success, but he landed some good punches that no other dude would've been able to land.
Trout floored for the first time of his career, Lara cutted for the first time of his career, and Floyd........................well you know landing on Floyd is like winning the lottery.
So even thou it was little if Canelo was able to land those clean shots on those guys, I wouldn't be schoked if he kO's Cotto.
I'm gonna be honest with you I see Canelo destroying Cotto, and not because I think he's more skilled than him, it's just because I think that styles makes fights, and Cotto would stand there for the beating of his life.
Put Canelo against Andrade or Jermell Charlo and it's gonna be a long night for him, against Kirkland??? now that's a FoTY candiddate, of course as long as Kirkland survives the first 4 rounds of the fight.
Absolutely. Cotto will do something to Alvarez that no one has done since Matthew Hatton -- and that is hit him and hit him hard. If Matthew Hatton could rock Alvarez, Cotto will scorch his ass in eight rounds or less -- that is if Kirkland doesn't do it first.
Alvarez's manager, De La Hoya and everyone else in boxing knows damn well that they are not going to get the Cinco De Mayo weekend for a Cotto/Alvarez fight. Regardless of who Mayweather chooses to fight, he will be fighting on Cinco de Mayo weekend on PPV. No casino in Las Vegas would choose Cotto/Alvarez over Mayweather vs anybody and there is no way HBO would be willing to go against Mayweather in a PPV showdown. Also, whoever he chooses to fight, whether it is Danny Garcia or Amir Khan, Mayweather will get more PPV buys than Cotto/Alvarez would if they fought on that date.

I like Canelo and appreciate how he takes the best and most difficult fights for the fans. But i feel that Cotto's experience and jab will frustrate him. Cotto isn't ******, he isn't going to stand right in front of him. I honestly think that the only way Canelo can reach his potential is by either moving to a new trainer or at least having a camp with one. He's gonna have a tough time if he doesn't learn to cut the ring off.
