No. It wasn't close and Roach has always been a better matchmaker than a trainer.
He certainly has improved but let's not get carried away...:lol:
You're forgetting Canelo just landed a better left hook to the body than Cotto. Canelo is a hard man. Golovkin may break before he does.
Canelo slipped damn near everything or caught the punches on his gloves.
Anyone who thinks Cotto could have actually gotten a decision based on landing hardly any meaningful punches needs a psych evaluation.
Even the 3 or 4 rounds Cotto won were extremely close. The only people who think Cotto won or that it was close must be watching on ****ty...
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...
9-3 Canelo. Good fight, great fighters, great human beings. Cotto showed a lot of heart but Canelo was too good and too big at this stage of their...
8-3 Canelo. I don't think anyone could be honest and score more than 4 rounds for Cotto at this point. He's really feeling Canelo's shots as the...
7-3 Canelo. Cotto is trying and showing heart but Canelo too big, too skilled, too good of boxing instincts for a 34 yr old Cotto.
Cotto took some very heavy shots in round 9. 6-3 Canelo.
Round 8 was great but Cotto cannot budge Canelo still. Edge to Canelo and round 6-2 for Canelo but I wouldn't argue with 5-3 Canelo.
Being generous could lead give Cotto 2 rounds at this point. 5-2 Canelo. The only rounds Cotto has one are typical rounds in which Canelo took a...
5-1 Canelo.
4-1 Canelo. Cotto's little flurries not really effective at all.
