Comments Thread For: WBC Prez: Canelo Needs The Miguel Cotto Fight

[BOXEO _]

Of course Canelo needs this fight, why do you think he's been spreading his cheeks all over the internet these last couple weeks.

Because no one else gives him the payday or the credit to his career that a Cotto fight would. The problem for Canelo is he won't win and beating Canelo does nothing for Cotto's legacy. He's just going to be a hype-job with casual appeal. Look at all these Canelo fans lifting up that Lara win as if it was something special. He didn't even win the fight, he got the decision but he landed 1 quality punch in 12 rounds.

Last time I checked Boxrec there was a W on Canelo's name against Lara.

... But what's Morrissey doing in your bathtub?

... basically, you reiterate: Cotto would better "sell" his belt to "TBE", right?

That's why I said he got the decision, but he didn't win that fight. No one did. Canleo didn't do a damn thing and Lara gave it away running just like Oscar did against Tito. In reality they are nearly the same fight, Tito couldn't do **** in there but Oscar gave it away because he didn't do anything.

He isn't losing to Floyd this time though. I picked Floyd to win the first time mind you, but Floyd isn't the same fighter even from 3 years ago and Cotto is a better fighter than he won three years ago. I'm not saying it's an ass kicking or even an easy lopsided win. It's a tough 12 round fight like the first fight but I see Cotto coming out on top this time.
