Has anyone changed who they're rooting for in Canelo-Cotto?

I usually pull for the dog in most fights, so I would root for Cotto. But (to your point) I want to see the winner fight Golovkin. With Canelo, there's a chance.

Kind of. I like the way Canelo fights but I've been watching cotto fight since he was rocking a shorter version of Lionel Richie's hairstyle. I've become annoyed with Miguel's attitude over the years and how he treated some people in his hometown, so I was pulling for Canelo, but Miguel's had an incredible career and never been in a bad fight. I'm hoping he can pull it off and then drop back down to 154.

I hope Canelo fails to make weight, gets the win, and the Title goes Vacant.

I was pulling for Canelo because I thought he would fight GGG after that. I'm a fan of both guys but I know Cotto won't fight GGG, and I don't even blame him, he's barely a 154 lb fighter. Canelo on the other hand has shown a willingness to take tough fights that Oscar doesn't want him to take Like Trout and Lara.

It's obvious Canelo wants no part of GGG after this fight so fk him, LETS GO COTTO!!!!!!!

Just to be clear ... Rooting for or thing is gonna win?

I'm rooting for Cotto but is 50/50 fight.

Nope, still rooting for Cotto.

Don't really care at this point

If one of them wins, he says he will relinquish the title and drop back down to the SWW/WW division.
If the other wins, he refuses to defend the title unless the mandatory agrees to a catch-weight under the maximum weight for the middle weight division.
I like this match-up, but the behavior/attitude from both fighters about their post fight strategy and future plans are just plain weak and lame. I am more of a Canelo fan, yet somehow I see his star power and fan base diminishing from it's current state. That' my 2 cents.

I still like Canelo and I don't like Cotto. I hope he knocks Cotto's head off. The fact that Cotto is smaller than GGG has nothing to do with anything. Cotto is probably the worst middleweight champion in history. Emile Griffith and Carman Basillo were welterweights and smaller than Cotto and they defended their middleweight title at the legit 160 pounds. If Cotto is too small to fight real middleweights at the real middleweight limit then he should give up his middleweight title and fight at 154. He has made a joke of the middleweight title.

Sorry, I misspelled Carmen Basilio., the great boxer who beat Robinson for the middleweight title and later lost it back to Robinson.
