    Me too, I don't understand why or how so many people are giving it to Cotto.

    If you say Canelo schooled Cotto.. YDKSAB... this was a close fight.

    No matter what the scores say.. and they'll say wide to Canelo I'm sure.

    Cotto should hang them up. He's been in too many fights.

    The hell is wrong with HBO? Cotto looking to survive *Cotto pushing Canelo back and punishing him*

    Wow, HBO is just terrible.

    Honourable and resourceful effort by Cotto when he was outgunned. Great performance by Canelo. Would've like to see a few more body shots and combos at times that might have brought a stoppage, but still an impressive win.

    Alvarez should win but I don't find his performance impressive. Roach game plan is to go and attack Canelo body while he was resting between his spurs. Is just that Canelo was way bigger and younger for it to work completely.

    Gotta give respect to Cotto for his performance against a younger, bigger, faster, stronger guy.
