Official Canelo-Cotto gif thread

[lopetego]

Those are some beautiful gifs.

Canelo just couldn't miss with those uppers, it's like they were glued to Cotto's face

He's been pulling off Mayweather moves since before he fought him. Kid is slick.

It's a shame he has cement feet doe

cement feet and crappy stamina doe

if it wasn't for those flaws, he'd be an utter beast. I'd fancy his chances against GGG if that was the case

he really needs to work on his stamina, that flaw that can still be corrected, unlike the other one

It's called styles, Margarito had no other choice but to walk through fire to get to Cotto because he didn't possess the talent to do anything else, fortunately for him he possessed one of the better chins that division has ever seen and that helped him in getting the victory.

Pacquiao will never, I repeat, never have much problems with a fighter who doesn't possess a right hand, so long as Pacquiao can slip the jab (Which he did easily) Pacquiao was going to look great. That's Pacquiao, an ATG.

Canelo neutralized Cotto the best way he knew how and it worked perfectly. Did so in his unique way, I actually enjoyed it and thought Canelo has never looked better.

We've seen Trout do that against a better version of Cotto. We all know this resurgence of Cotto is due to good matchmaking, one legged fighters and catchweights. Cotto today is not better than the Cotto who fought Margarito, Pacquiao, Trout, and Mayweather. And none of those guys outweighed Cotto as much as Canelo. Canelo was landing some flush shots and couldn't even get a KD. I'm not impressed by doing to Cotto what Trout did to him three years ago.

Dead on. I think one of the things people don't understand about Canelo is he isn't a come forward fighter. Sure he came forward vs Cotto, but that's not his nature.

He's a counter puncher by trade, and I think that against a skilled boxer he will be more careful in his approach. If he would have come forward more, took more chances, I do think he stops Cotto. He just won't risk it, but I agree, he looked really good Saturday night.

Very underrated boxing skills from Canelo.

Same round, same move again

Same exact move as the one he ended the Angulo fight and where he cut Lara up. Beautiful set up, you would've expected Roach would've had Cotto ready for that.

Cotto's instinct has always been to crouch(lower his center of gravity) when he feels a punch coming from above and ups his guard to cover his temples. That's why he's always been a sucker for uppercuts, especially when they're set up by a previous overhand....be it a real punch or feint....difficult to correct him becuse of the way he's always held his hands when fighting.

Margarito did the same just by following up right hands with uppercuts....

This is why regardless of Canelo's lack of activity, he clearly won......almost no quality punches from Cotto...the highlights are basically all canelo. Cotto didn't land enough to steal rounds.

Damn look at that GIF. What is Cotto doing?! Canelo is so so SO much better than what he is credited for. What a great performance, his shot selection, set-up and execution are great. This was a great fight i was impressed with Cotto too, what a warrior!

Roach is a **** trainer. So no I didn't expect that. "We don't watch tape of our opponents, we just train our style and the fighter has to adjust to us"

The uppercuts where on point on this fight. Those where probably my favorite parts of the fight.
