    not hating at all just stating the facts... he had every advantage posible in this fight and still he didnt impress.. he's a natural welter fighting a jr lightweight and he couldnt take him out.. he hit cotto with like 10 straight shots to the head and cotto was standing there taking them.. he doesnt hit like a welter and against somebody good that's a natural welter he'll have a hard time.. to me he's all hype and no substance

    Okay, maybe you have selective memory, BUT I recall you were all on Miguel Cotto's nuts

    The same Miguel Cotto who was

    1. 25 years old and defending champion

    when he fought Demarcus Corley

    2. B level Fighter

    Who after nearly 10 years in the game had begun his losing streak

    3. Who almost KO Miguel Cotto and had him on ***** street for almost an entire round

    4. Even though Cotto outweighed Corley by excatly 17 pounds on fight night!!!!

    and still, Cotto went on to reign as champion, and pick up a few more vacant straps along the way, with some nice wins.

    So you can't hate on Canelo, especially your hypocrite ass, because your hero was in worse shape, against a worse gatekeeper, while he had more exprience, was a champion, and outweighed his oppoent by almost 20 pounds.

    hahaha if canelo was a young puerto rican cleaning a mexican veteran's clock I think you'd be singing a different tune....just saying. he's a kid whipping on men...he got caught, he's learning on the job with pretty much zero amature exp. but hey....haters gonna hate.;)

    Good young fighter,
    But no superstar.
    Not today and not tomorrow.

    Most of the mexicans in this country are tatooed gangbangers, salvadorans too. Quite embarrassed by their ghetto like behavior.

    look ethnicity has nothing to do with my opinion.. he's a boxer an even thought he's 19 that doesnt matter.. a 19yr old top level prospect should beat up on any c level fighter no matter whats the c level fightes age.. especially when that c level fighter is a lightweight fighting a welter weight

    I was impressed with him bar the **** up in the first round but he will learn and grow from that. Bare in mind he is only 19 he is still developing into a man.
