    Starting to rethink Cotto Canelo

    I think this might be more competetive than I originally thought.



    Thoughts?

    Me too. Cotto reminded me last night about how slippery he can be at times. I think it's going to be a little harder than I initially thought for Canelo to connect flush the way Cotto keeps his chin tucked and his hands up.

    However, we have to remember. He had Daniel Geale in front if him last night. Daniel Geale is the epitome of average while Cotto has proven he's atleast two levels above Geale.

      Good points. I was at the fight and I didn't think Cotto would do that to Daniel.


      I lean towards the irish mexican 60/40 still

        If there is no catchweight, Canelo knocks him the F**k out.

          Ginger might stop him late.

            The Irishman wins in round 5 or 6.

              After what I saw last night, I think Cotto beats him fairly easily

                Canelo fights at 154. What difference would a 156 or whatever MW catch weight make?

                Both men can weigh in comfortably at whatever weight they want, and canelo will still be the larger man come fight night

                  I still lean on Canelo but it will be a great fight.

                  The styles will mesh well.
