    Well he already outboxed Canelo twice in the eyes of 90% of the world. Guess Canelo really can’t box

    GGG landed more on Canelo than Bivol did, but Canelo had his trunks high in his first fight v GGG so no body punches would be thrown by GGG.

    Cotto: different energy levels for every fight. Had a nice punch to reach Mosley's face before Mosley could get his punch off. Great left hook to the body lifted the feet of Randell Bailey, a strong right hand that knocked down Ricardo Torres. Maybe came in a bit sleepy for Mayweather fight but still held his own. Was able to walk through body punches like m and n's from the bigger man el Canelo. Put on a boxing clinic in Mayorga part 2. A masterpiece of left hooks and right crosses to the head targeting that eye showing his aim has lots of marksmanship in it. Accuracy I mean. He was able to box with those who could bang, bang with those who could box. At 140 he was walking thru opposition left and right. Had a nice high guard but sometimes fell down to his opponents level like Sadan Ali. He sometimes lacked mental endurance as he would back pedal eloquently, but then again who is a pressure fighter 100% if the time anyway. He was tough, a contemporary great, took his beating like a man from Margarito but also confessed Pacquiao was the greatest he ever faced. Ps did you guys notice he was in the undercard for de la Hoya Vargas? Long time ago ..

    Yes I first seen Cotto on the undercard of DLH v Mayorga on a British sports channel (sky sports) and the commentary team and pundits were tipping him for big things.
