    Canelo slipped and rolled most of Cotto's punches on top of the fact he was stronger, faster, and Cotto could not budge Canelo an inch. Canelo is a strong SOB.

    These are wide, I gave Cotto 3 rounds and I felt that was maybe a bit too wide as well but I think the winner is the right one.

    Ridiculous scores. Cotto won at least 4 rounds.

    Canelo took it, but I think Cotto impressed me more. Tough old man, the young buck couldn't take him out. Doesn't bode well for a GGG fight. In any case the old man stayed on his feet, and he goes home with a 15 million prize. Plus momma Cottos melons.

    He needs to be back at his weight class. Canelo outweigh him by too much

    The judges had it very wide, as many here seem to have.

    I think thats a mistake, as landing with power alone is not enough to win you a round. Workrate, movement, ring generalship all play their part too. It was closer than the judges had it. 7-5 or 8-4 Canelo is good for me.
