        No, Canelo is just 10 years younger, naturally much bigger, and in his prime. Doesn't hurt that Canelo happens to be a really good fighter. Wtf....

            His (mostly weak) opposition definitely flattered him.

            But I think what's more smoke and mirrors is his alleged "boxing skills".

            Cotto is not a good boxer or counter puncher IMO. He's shown that time and time again, I'll admit he's not as usless as he used to be on the back foot like he was 2007-2010, but he's still not a good boxer at all.

            I remember our discussion pre fight Larry where we were talking about who's the better counter puncher. IMO it was clearly Canelo and that defintely showed on the night.

              His power was and continues to be overrated.
              Definitely.

              I've seen enough of his power now. He's definitely not a concussive puncher.

                    Cotto should have fought his career as a southpaw. He has the same limitation as Oscar has had....neither has a right hand. Roach is is horrible trainer. Freddie has all his fighters fighting with that in and out style, rather than teaching them technique. Also, that ******ness that Cotto does putting his right gloves over the left side of his face to block punches annoys the hell out of me. He should be slipping and setting up counters.

                      I had Cotto winning. I posted on the master thread that he won 3 rounds. Corrections, i meant 7-5. Closed fight. Cotto did not have the power to hurt Canelo but Cotto did good.

                      HBO crew was favoring Canelo from the start. Even When Cotto was doing good, HBO was down grading it and praising Cotto.
