Canelo Alvarez wants the fight against Miguel Cotto to be at 156 pounds.

[icha]

He probably will cave in for the $$$. And just because Canelos last three fights were at weight A, doesn't mean that he can still make weight A, fight at weight A, or be comfortable at weight A.

Here's why:

Canelo is still a kid. He's 25 and growing by the months. He's not even the siize he will be in 5-years where as Cotto is 34 and fully grown.

Anybody who's over the age of 25 knows what I'm talking about. 25-30 = you change a lot in size.

he is still 24 i believe..

he is still 24 i believe..

He'll be 25 in 18 days.

He is 18 days from being 25. Had to look that up real quick.

No big deal, 1lb argument. They'll sort it out 155.5 or something.

This sounds like the logical thing to do.

[Don Pichardo]

Fights happening. 1lb will not stand in the way of tens of millions of dollars. This is nothing more than a mind game. A leverage posture. People don't flush this type of money down the toilet.

cottos done it once. What makes u think he won't do it again. Actually he did it twice. He fought martinez then geale for less money. Cotto can easily go for ggg and for less money thereby making it three times he walked by tens of millions. Canelo needs to stfu and fight. Canelos money comes after floyd cotto and pac are gone. He needs to wait his turn and fire his trainer and manager.

Lol this is beyond ******ed. The current middleweight champion wants the weight lower than the guy supposedly moving up. And Canelo's last three fights have been at the weight Cotto is requesting. It's divas being divas just because they can.

[Build That Wall]

Cotto can't use his "I'm the A side" argument vs canelo

He literally can't. Canelo has the bigger fan following.

[SlySlickSmooth]

This is laughable since Canelo has been fighting at 155.

[ThePunchingBag]

Wtf. I thought Canelo was a true 154lb fighter.
