He took away Cotto's left hook. Cotto only has power coming forward. His right hand is weak like Oscar's was. I think too much was made of Cotto's boxing ability. He's not mayweather. Lara and Trout are good boxers and they are 5'9-5'10 much bigger. His reach is so short it's hard to box from the outside effectively all night.
The best version of Cotto is the one that can pressure with boxing inbetween. Canelo is a very good boxer. He isn't the best pressure fighter. He will always struggle against bigger guys who can move. Against smaller guys he's going to look as good as he did last night.
