+1 you are right, man. -
if Canelo knew how to cut off a ring, he would've blasted Cotto outta there inside 8 rounds. he was just following him around, but he was winning. . the one moment Cotto stood flat footed and attempted to trade he got smoked by the speed and power combos Canelo was firing. Canelo was also the best defensive fighter that night, he was slipping and parrying a lot of blows. at times he looked like Floyd catching and shooting. the guy can be slick when he wants to. i don't see how Cotto won more than 3 rounds.Comment

So true. Freddie was terrible and never adjusted or was honest with his fighter. It's clear the game plan was to stay away from canelos power and stick and move all night hoping to frustrate canelo with pot shots. And hoping that he would tired out the final 3rd of the fight. But when it was clear cotto was losing rounds and struggling to land anything it is Roach job to adapt and change the strategy. Problem is the one round cotto stood his ground and traded he took a massive beating. So roach didn't want his fighter getting knocked out so they stayed the course with a losing strategy. Canelo never got rattled or tired out. Landed more punches at a higher rate and landed all the best shots of the fight. Some of the scores could of been closer but Cotto still lost.Originally posted by -Antonio- View PostComment

It was a good fight
Cotto did block a lot of those punches however Canelo came in at light heavy weight so his punches were more telling. Canelo was so big no reason not to fight GGG.Comment

I wanted Canelo to win as so he can face Golovkin, but now I'm hearing he does not want to fight at 160 but it was ok for him to fight a guy who weighed in at 153 was it ? For the 160 belt. Dude that is pathetic.Originally posted by Bardock View Post
Canelo wants to create his own division he should openly say it, not hold the 160 lineal belt proudly aloft claiming to be playing ball with gorilla's and killers. Dude is just another Danny Garcia, bricking himself in regards to moving up to face a genuine challenge. I'm not even a GGG or Cotto fanboy, I'm just a neutral boxing fan wanting to see competitive action, fact is Cotto looked good against Canelo whom was nearly two weights heavier come fight night.Comment

I see Cotto has been hanging around Freddie Roach too long. Now he's starting to believe his own BS.Comment

What's with the avatar you're sporting, junior middle weight just fought a light heavyweight and he has one dark eye, what is to gloat over ? I gonna laugh hard when I see your avatar after GGG vs Canelo at 160.Originally posted by Bardock View PostComment

LOL at your whole post. Golovkin has to come down if he wants to get it next. If he wants it at 160 he can wait until September of next year. That A-side remember? Or is that only when GGG wants to fight Ward or when he wants to come down for little Floyd?Originally posted by Scott-Weiland View Post
2 weight divisions
does Cotto no hydrate at all? Does he walk around at 155? I don't think so. Fact is Cotto got schooled badly and had hardly if any success. The fight had nothing to do with size as cotto was just badly outclassed in every department. Go stick to your Eurobums and leave the real fights for the fans.

It is not suprising to see Cotto claiming victory, the fight was close but the right man won. Hell, Paquiao did the same thing and he clearly lost!!!Comment

After not paying your sanctioning fee to the WBC, you still expected the WBC appointed judges to see things your way?Comment
