[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

When Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez (45-1-1, 32KOs) tries to take the WBC middleweight title from Miguel Cotto (40-4, 33KOs) this Saturday night from the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya has a clear idea of what Cotto will try against his client.

Every time that delahoya opens his mouth,I get more and more of a feeling that he's spelling canelo doom. At this point,I'd be surprised if canelo manages to make it into the ring without twisting an ankle,or dislocating a rotator cuff.

Cotto isn't 34 anymore.

Thank you Oscar for the Blueprint.

Seriously tho.. Cotto's best bet is to stick to outboxing and not get caught up in the cheers and jeers cause if he tries to go toe to toe blow for blow then Cotto will eat uppercuts all day and it will be a early night for him..

lmaooo Oscar is on coke cotto is a vet the cheers wont get to him this is for his legacy and family he will stick to the game plan cotto will attack early to surprise canelo and keep a high rate pace canelo is not a volume puncher he will get tired

Oscar is just repeating what Freddie Roach has stated publicly and what he's learned from watching 24/7. This doesn't count as insight.

The World Boxing Council worked tirelessly through a process that began over two years ago to secure the celebration of the highly anticipated fight between Miguel Cotto and Saul “Canelo” Alvarez. The WBC is proud of that accomplishment that is giving boxing fans around the world a very important fight to see.
After several weeks of communications, countless attempts and good faith time extensions trying to preserve the fight as a WBC World Championship, Miguel Cotto and his promotion did not agree to comply with the WBC Rules & Regulations, while Saśl Alvarez has agreed to do so. Accordingly, the WBC must rule on the matter prior to the fight.
The WBC hereby announces that effective immediately has withdrawn recognition of Miguel Cotto as WBC World Middleweight Champion. If Saul “Canelo” Alvarez wins the fight against Cotto, he will be recognized as the WBC middleweight world champion.
The WBC’s decision is premised on the fact that Miguel Cotto and his camp are not willing to abide by the governing WBC Rules & Regulations, and the specific conditions the WBC established to sanction the fight. Simply put: they are not willing to respect the very same rules and conditions which applied to Cotto becoming WBC champion. The WBC wishes Miguel Cotto the best of luck as we truly regret the course of action which led to them taking such decision.
The WBC is a non-profit governing organization founded 53 years ago. The WBC has implemented all of the current rules in the sport, paving the way to a much safer boxing. The WBC creates, implements and enforces, its Rules & Regulations to bring safety, order, unity, justice and equality to a sport that was marred with abuse and unfairness. Since the first day of existence of our organization, the WBC has taken countless actions for the protection of the boxer and it is a fact that most if not all boxers dream of conquering the green belt.
The WBC stands by its honorability and will not participate in the abuse of power and greediness, which has taken our boxing world to regrettable actions from different parties. The WBC wishes the promotion great success and we are satisfied that this great fight for boxing will be enjoyed by millions of fans around the world.

Eat **** diva.
