    He was too busy eating Cotto's jabs to throw his own

    Canelo has never had a jab. He fights too flat-footed for it.

    Canelo's footwork is just horrible.

    Canelo's jab was stuck heavy in Cotto's face.
    ......and he followed those jabs up with crisp uppercuts that would send Cotto out bailing and moving to the laterals.

    You morons refuse to give Canelo his due. Man outboxed Cotto at Center ring and invited Cotto to bang with him up close, Cotto however bailed and went into survival mode when the uppercuts started hammering his face.

    Canelo was better at every facet of the game, deal with it gents!:deal

    Funny. I saw Cotto's jab largely neutralized by Canelo's movement and parries.

    Of course it wasn't, you didn't take your blinders off.

    I don't see where Canelo outboxed Cotto...he outsized Cotto. He was at least 2 divisions bigger than Cotto last night.

    Cotto was beat in every facet of the game.
    Where are those who said beforehand that Canelo couldn't stand center ring and box Cotto?

    You wanna see jabs, watch a DUSTIN NICHOLS fight. The "check jab"... Otherwise expect terrible tactical boxing.
