No stationary, low volume counter puncher is going to beat Miguel Cotto.

This is it right here. Canelo won't press Cotto enough to make him uncomfortable and he's not going to counter Cotto.

The problem with MSG in May is if the Knicks make the playoffs they are up against the NBA playoff and TV schedule. Its why Cotto has fought there in June or December because the regular season schedule is set ahead of time and there is no basketball in the Garden in June.
I think the fight happens at the MGM and Floyd moves off the date once the fight is officially announced, causing no venue conflicts.

How do you see the fight playing out? I'm curious. I can't see a way for Canelo to win this fight. He would literally have to become a different fighter. He would have to do things inside the ring we've never seen him do. The style matchup favors Cotto. I expect Cotto to dominate from the start. I can't wait.

I don't think he's gonna press him or pressure him like Margarito but I think he's going to try to come forward. To me the question is who's jab wins out, who is able to effectively attack the body and who draws first blood? That person probably wins this fight. Great fight though, a real fans fight and one that could make a lot of people into boxing fans.
