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

    You guys gotta ignore brush.... He's just trying find ways to either big up Canelo and GGG and **** Cotto how ever he can.

      Cotto is too a big star now -- it's hard to say anything against him (at least in this "Canelo context")...

        If Cotto manages to push a catchweight onto this fight I reckon Roach would want it at 152 just like Mayweather did to Canelo

          I don't know

          Cotto looked really good last night and I doubted he would do that Geale.

            Cotto the Puerto Rican Veteran, big money draw, coming off 2 impressive, knockouts.

            Canelo the rising Mexican superstar, young and talented, also coming off an impressive KO and also a big draw.

            Awesome, I can't wait.

            The Mexico vs Puerto Rico rivalry continues, I just expect that Cotto does not ruin everything with his ****** "A side" crap, ducks Canelo ( again ) or wants a 152 catch weight.

              Thoughts?

              Cotto is fighting very well under Roach. This is not the lost Cotto training himself anymore. Killer intentions are back when he goes to the body. Veyr much like the rookie 140 Cotto. It was what I liked most about Cotto. He went through a confused era and his plodding hunched over style was a liability.


              Definitely not an easy fight for either Cotto or Canelo. We all win...

                Cotto all day. He's a better boxer, quicker, punches as harder if not harder.

                  Well Cotto punches harder and has a little more stamina than Alvarez but Canelo is the more accurate counter puncher of the two with a better defense and faster hands.

                      Really hard for me to go against cotto here. Canelo would have to take his Gane to a level we haven't seen yet. I frankly don't see it. He's good don't get me wrong, but his style is still underdeveloped. And that will hurt him against a vet a level boxer/puncher like cotto. Abd one more thing. Cotto has a jab.
