Why is Cotto-Canelo being billed as the next "Super fight"? Canelo ain't elite.

[-Huey-]

Cotto and Canelo's style makes for a great fight. Fuck Mayweather and Pacquiao!

[OnePunch]

Look, the Lara fight was just as close as the Trout fight, neither fight is one when you can so confidently say "Lara/Trout won". It's ridiculous how some of you discredit a legitimate yet close win, like everyone win has to be a 12-0 drubbing.

Exactly. Cotto stans like to forget that Cotto-Clottey and Cotto-Old Mosley were also VERY close fights, that some people think went the wrong way.

Personally I think Cotto squeaked out wins in both fights, but the fact that they were close decisions (split decision in clottey fight) doesnt discredit cotto, same as the lara & trout wins dont discredit Canelo...........

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Canelo is a huge draw.... Plus the guy has shown he competes at the highest level...

Stretch of opponents
Trout
Floyd
Angulo
Lara
Kirkland

Name a fighter that has faced that type of talent consecutively right now, and gone 4-1

[Jc8804]

Cause its the snake vs the sac.

Elite status. Cotto got testies the size of eggs. And canelo has a 2 pound 10 incher.

This is gonna be historic to say the least

[Lords]

Canelo lost to Trout, so his biggest win today is Jose Cotto.

But anyway, it's all about popularity and Canelo has some.

The hate is real

[MRBOOMER]

Cotto has fought the top fighters of his time and had some success, fair enough. But Canelo's biggest wins are against Austin Trout and James Kirkland, neither of whom are near top 10 P4P.

This fight isn't remotely on the level of Mayweather-Pacquiao.

Your fired. he beat Lara it's a w in the books so it's a w in real life don't be mad get glad mother****er. And Austin trout was hyped to the moon to out box canelo don't cry lol be happy we getting a good fight. Plus he slide cotto's brother they gotta fight ahahaha

[Mr.Fantastic]

The hate is real

Was he young? He certainly wasn't prime. Old may be a bit too much but still. Why do you stans always assume someone is hating because we don't put Cotto on a pedestal? We all know he's good but call him out on his crap, something majority of his fanboys lack.

It won't be a financial superfight along the lines of May/Pac, that's pretty obvious, but it would still be a formidable PPV fight, and more importantly, it's just a badass fight.

It really has damn near a 0% chance to be boring.
