Comments Thread For: Shields Explains Why Miguel Cotto Will Beat Canelo

[Progrssive_Jedi]

I hope Cotto wins. Canelo is a whiney little *****.

We have no Idea of New (Roach) trained Cotto is real though, at MW where he holds this new belt, he hasn't fought anyone.

A one legged Martinez and a sickly looking Geale is hardly the kind of test that shows us who this new Cotto is.

A win against Canelo would be solid, but Canelo gasses out, Cotto only needs to do solid for first half of fight and take it home second half.

Both are overated c plus fighters.

Always have been.
But this fight between the two nations should be a solid one.

WTF?

Theyr c fighters? Based on what?

Dude i think ur confused with another sport if Canelo and Cotto are C fighters lol

Is Shields the first trainer to pick Cotto (aside from Roach)? I don't recall seeing any others.

Virgill hunter picked Cotto and so did ****m richardson

Im sure Roach and Cotto are lookn at how Canelo dealt with movement and his stamina. That tells me theyll look to box early, go to the body when they can and press in the later rds...my guess is thats the basic outline of their strategy.

That's all he needs to do? You make it sound so easy.

Dude really. They are two of the best fighters in the world. Cotto is a HOFer. Give me a break

Canelo probably wins due to his athleticism and youth. His stamina should hold up since he wont be drained. His stamina usually fails him when he has to squeeze out that extra lb to make 54. Hoping for a competitive fight. Also hoping the winner will fight GGG just to settle all the speculation and satisfy my own.

Kind of interested in your grading system. Who are the B- fighters of their weightclasses and era? And who are the Bs and B pluses...and so on?

Yeah exactly. I guess fighters like Floyd and pac don't even make it out of the B category lol
