Take him deep meaning Team Cotto will avoid engaging as much as possible in hopes that they can land a few shots per round and steal a points victory. Pretty much par for the course with every fighter that has ever stepped into the ring with King Nelo. But you can't blame these guys...just look what happens to fighters when they try to fight King Nelo...they nearly get killed...

Well, May fought him and we all know how amateur he made him look....just saying.

Canelo was 22 years old and weight drained when he fought May at 152.

25 year old Canelo at 155 is a completely different animal.

Sure what? Are you saying Canelo wasn't weight drained at 152 when he fought Mayweather?

I remember joshua clottey giving Cotto a hard time. I even thought clottey won a close decision. If he fights anything close to that; i see him losing. Otherwise he might have a small edge, but Canelo can beat him on size and youth if he uses it wisely. Good fight overall.

Great post! I agree canelo needs to be wise and he has the ability to win but use it wisely.

you mean all those welterweights who fought canelo at super welterweight while canelo himself is closer to mw? Yea he should be getting "nearly killed".

Funny. The only one he really ko'd was old baldomir.

Is this the same thing we going to read when Cotto destroys him too???

Canelo blew up in wt.

"Mayweather remained unbeaten in 45 fights and added another piece of the junior middleweight title to his collection in a fight that was fought at a 152-pound limit. Alvarez weighed in at that weight, but was an unofficial 165 pounds when he got into the ring while Mayweather, who weighed in at 150 1/2 pounds, was an even 150".

Wt. drained ?

Yes, he was weight drained at 152, everybody saw it. Including the fat TMT guy in Mayweather's corner and Andre Ward.

If you guys want to pretend he wasn't weight drained at 152 then that's on you.

[bigjavi973]

Weight drained.

so why did you mention that he was 22 at that time and that he's 25 now?
