Comments Thread For: Cotto-Canelo Finalized - Signed, Sealed and Set, 11/21

Like I said, should be an OK fight.

Like Oscar said, GGG vs Lemieux will be the fight for supremacy in the MW division.

These two will be scrapping over 3rd and 4th place and the winner will probably duck the top dog.

I can definitely see Cotto vacating the WBC strap and ducking GGG if he wins but I don't think the Mexican in Canelo would let him duck GGG.

Megafights break records and appeal to boxing fans and non-boxing fans alike.

If that's your take or view, then that's fine to think that way. Nothing wrong with it but I've been watching this sport for 25yrs now, you aren't going to tell me what fights I should consider to be mega or not. Like I said before, this one is special in its own way and a large reason behind it is the history between these two countries in this sport.

Can you believe we got May-Pac and Cotto-Canelo in the same year? When was the last time we got a year this big?

depends on how you look at it. Outcome or fights the fans wanted to see.

2000 will always be one of my favorite yrs.
Morales vs Barrera
Trinidad vs Reid
De la Hoya vs Mosley
Vargas vs Quartey

I can't believe people are saying this isn't a superfight. This is the definition of a superfight. It's the two biggest stars besides Pacquiao and Mayweather.

It's funny, Cotto's MW title fights have been at 159, 157, and now 155. Next he'll be defending his MW belt at a catchweight below the JMW limit.

155 is him coming down to Canelo's weight... like Hopkins did with facing Oscar at 156.

Superfight yes. Megafight no.

Megafights are May/Pac, Delahoya/May, Tyson/Lewis. Megafights break records.

This is shaping up to be a great boxing year, I am pumped for Wlad/Fury, Lemieux/GGG, and Cotto/Canelo. These next few months are going to be good.

they aren't the 2 biggest stars. ggg is a much bigger star than cotto. cotto only did 12k agaisnt geale with 25 dollar tickets. ggg's prob going to do twice that with more expensive tickets. men lie, women lie, floyd lies, but facts don't lie!
