    cotto won't be standing in front of canelo, that'd be to canelos advantage. canelo has both speed and power so he'll be doing the angles / back foot thing and reset but can he do that for the 12?
    He won't need 12 rounds.

    Canelo has size and power advantage, this fight won't go past 6 rounds.

    Also, I don't know why people think Cotto is more skilled than ginger.

    As much as I hate him, Lara is very, very skilled and he couldn't outbox Canelo.

      you're really an idiot if you think this. straight up, make no mistake about this, boy. if this were a 2008 cotto we're talking about here, he foks canelo up. this is only a competitive fight because cotto is out of his prime but there's still enough there to make this a very competitive fight. but i see canelo edging it out, though.

      fok off and watch more tape of cotto.

        His offense is just too good for the smaller guy. He'll definitely catch Cotto enough to cause a serious effect. Alvarez may not be the quickest guy on his feet, but his hands are fast and accurate, and he can throw any punch effectively. He's plenty skilled, and with his size I expect him to break Cotto down and make him run.

          I see I hurt some Puerto Rican feelings.

          Cotto is an overachiever: he's very, very overrated.

          He's kind of like Oscar: everytime he steps up, he ****s up.

          ****, even when he does not step up he ****s up (Margarito, Trout).

          And I'm not hating, I'm telling how it is.

          Just ****in deal with it.

            A lot of the fighters Canelo has fought since reaching the top of the sport have said afterwards that he was much faster than they thought. No question Cotto's more technical, but I don't think Canelo needs to be better than him in that department to win. Cotto has a chance if he can find his rhythm and frustrate Canelo, but on balance Kid Cinnamon is a solid fave IMO

                That's what Cotto said to Margarito.

                    Yet another past prime opponent who would mop the floor with M if he was in his prime.

                    No wait, this guy actually has done that.
