    I think it's at least one of the top 2-3 fights at 154.

    Canelo's heavy hands are a little too much for Cotto IMO.

    hell naw cotto and bradley is 50 50 and canelo is 50 50, but canelo can hurt cotto and stop him. canelo is not easy to beat, he might get bored in there from time to time but show him a shrimp and he will make fried rice.

    You think Cotto/Bradley is 50/50? I won't argue with Cotto/Canelo being 50/50.

    I favor Canelo slightly. He's younger, stronger, bigger, and hits harder. Cotto's face also marks up easily, and he would probably gas a little if he tried to box and move against Canelo (because fighting in close with Alvarez would be foolish on Cotto's part.) I think Canelo eventually gets him in the 10th or 11th for the stoppage. I think Cotto would be up 7-3 or 6-4 when he gets stopped though if he tries to box and move. Should be a great fight though, and I like both guys a lot, but I think Canelo will be too much for Cotto.

    Cotto is a better technical boxer, and better on the inside than Saul. Saul will have to walk Cotto down and stop him, which I don't see him doing.

    Cotto by decision.

    Tossup. If Canelo had just a bit more seasoning I'd favor him.
