Just like he did better against Floyd because Canelo tried to box and he can't chase fighters like Lara which is why he needed a gift. Canelo needs fighters who come to him. He's a boxer puncher who's more of a boxer. Cotto is boxer puncher who's more of a swarmed but more intelligent. Cotto could make Lara fight a war win or lose so I really wouldn't mind this fight
I now want Cotto-Lara

Cotto vs TBA, at Madison Square Garden, Puerto Rican Day weekend.
Lara makes for a **** fight, and that hasn't changed at all; just look back to the Ishe Smith fight. To that, you can also add that Lara is unlikely to take short money for the shot.
A guy like Jorge Heiland, positioned pretty well within the governing bodies but not really a world-level contender, would make a lot more sense.Comment

Terrible fight stylistically for Cotto. Lara will be able to beat him to the punch jabbing. What is Cotto gonna do against a guy who is going to be on his bike and getting off before him with the jab?Comment

Not much. Would be an appalling performance by Lara, how dare he win on his bike??Comment
