Comments Thread For: Cotto: My Brother, a 135-Pounder, Badly Hurt Canelo

[isidius]

again, i can't tell if you're being sarcastic. the baby bottle and childish comment lead me to believe that you are.

do you believe that a 19 year old will take punches as well as his 25 year old self?

Yes I am being sarcastic.

Trout beat canelo and got robbed and budy triangle theories dont work in boxing you idiot. Fraizer beat Ali but Foreman beat Fraizer so that mean Foreman beats Ali right? ****ing idiot. Is about styles and Canelo is tailor made for Cotto.

Sucker for a left hook? Check
Low volume puncher? Check
Cabt cut off the ring? Check
Bad stamina? Double check

Canelo is truly tailor made for Cotto.

do you really think the trout fight was a robbery?

mmost ringside observers had that fight close, and a majority had canelo winning. just look at trout in the post fight interview
that's not the body language or rhetoric of a guy who thinks he won the fight and was robbed.

a close fight is not a robbery. so either you made a typo, or you don't know what a robbery in boxing is...

Tell what fight Canelo has won one sided fashion? Against a B or A fighter?? Im waiting.

Again, the argument for Cotto is the experience advantage in big fights. Nobody is arguing that Canelo has the better resume. You're right. Canelo has had maybe three big fights in his life, and they were a loss to Floyd, a win against Trout, and fight that could have gone wither way against the Cuban school of boxing. That doesn't address the point I'm making.

No of course not...

Canelo is a sucker for the left hook. Im telling you people! the way he positions his right hand and the subtle moves he does even before he throws his right hand are huge no no against a guy with a big left hook. This will be a fight were canelo will get hurt and get hurt often. I really have no idea what people see in him.

Who's landed that left hook consistently on Canelo? Can't think of any that have accomplished that recently. Hard to imagine since 3 of his last 5 opponents have been southpaws. He completely nullified Angulo's left hook, which is his money shot, and I don't recall Floyd landing many hooks.

Trout got put on his @ss and even said after the fight he lost. Robbed? What drugs you on. Canelo beat that boy and because it was open scoring coasted the final rounds. If not for open scoring he keeps his foot on the gas and KO's Trout. Way more relevance in fighting the same fighter in a months span then comparing a fighters brother who fought a guy when he was 19 like you idiot Cotto fans been doing don't you think? And again Trout was the LAST quality fighter who wasn't coming on major knee injuries Cotto has faced. Everyone since has been a bum or a cripple. You really have to go back to 2009 and Welterweight to find the last quality win on Cotto's resume. When he wasn't fighting a retired, or injured fighter, or a bum he got his face busted up and lost. Cotto is past his prime and will be put into retirement by the younger stronger Canelo.

At 19 canelo gets rocked by a 135 lb fighter,but goes on to stop him in 9.
At 29 cotto gets destroyed and stopped by a fighter who began fighting at light flyweight...way to call a kettle black.

You need to get your facts straight Cotto started getting rocked at 140 after being at the weight for 5 yrs and was about 25 to 26 yrs old. He barley made 140 for the Corley fight and the Torres fight if that is what you are referring to.

Canelo got rocked at the age of 19 in his debut in the US. By a old journeyman Cotto got rocked by guys with skillz

not every fighter with skills has power, your sentence doesnt make sense.

Ouch, shots fired.
