What exactly happened? I must've missed it.

The only part I saw was after the fight Miguel was speaking with someone sitting behind his family for less than a minute and his wife was trying to pull him away and into the locker room.

That was a great fight. Respect to both. I personally thought the fight was close but Canelo won by a round or two. The scorecards were crazy.

Takes away from a great fight.

Scorecards were a joke, fight was sold before they even fought, what a disgrace.

Watch the fight again man, Canelo won that fight. Real easy to score. I know its tough to watch a favorite fight lose but gotta take the good with that bad. Cotto had a nice run but he lost.

I agree a Cotto win would have been bad for the sport.

Good fight i agree but Cotto was lucky to bag 4 rds. He really was out boxed from the start. Had some nice moments but was really only limited to a jab. Even his combos late in the fight hit glove or air. Still he took some big shots from Canelo and didnt give in.

I picked Cotto to win, but I definitely thought Canelo won that fight 8-4. Cotto had his moments, but the size of Canelo and the power of his punches was the difference maker. He clearly won the fight.

I agree 100%

[Strive 4 Truth]

It think Canelo has really improved.

He nullified Cotto's jab. His D is underrated. Very good win, if closer than cards

I agree and even made Cottos left hook non existent. Good win for Canelo and his team.

[tiliheels]

he only won bcuz he was causing damage???? Thats the point in boxing, dude. Wth! Ur still not sold and u never will be but youll probavly be sold on lesser fighters with lesser comp. Get over him bruh

causing more damage bc he was too big to feel cotto..he was not to big enough to not feel lara..he will not be big enough not to feel ggg...could he hurt them too? prolly but lets be honest cotto never looked in danger to go until the 12th i believe...all this was from a size advan..flip the role and i dont think canelo will beat anyone 20 lbs bigger than him...bc that is wat it looked to be last night

[NachoMan]

Ummmm....exactly this. Canelo didn't win because he was more skilled, he was just way bigger, and Cotto's punches weren't damaging him, and his were.

So, you're saying that you agree that Canelo won though, right? If you hurt your opponent and your opponent doesn't hurt you, you generally win.
