Took a beating from Pac for 12 and didn't go sleep. Got hit with bricks for 11 rounds and never went sleep. Fought a super middleweight/light heavy weight and lasted. I think is pretty good.
Totally different fights. Cotto was going after Pacquiao, against Canelo he was boxing circles around him, fighting more cautiously. Cotto wasn't too enthusiastic to go toe to toe with Canelo that often, he got hurt several times. It turned out to be a very good, entertaining, tactical boxing match instead of a war. Just look at Cotto's face and this wasn't even a war. Toe to toe Canelo would of knocked him out. I don't think his power is overrated if anything he proved he's not 1 dimensional anymore and his boxing is underrated. That right hand feint followed by a left uppercut, that's something you'd expect from Mayweather. Even Roy Jones was impressed.
