    no point even discussing GGG vs Canelo its a mismatch GGG knocks him out easy

    canelo does not have the punch resistance of a legit mw


    the funny thing is their are ww's who hit harder or as hard as canelo

    We don't know what Canelo's punch resistance is at this point. He is now in his prime, and hasn't fought someone who could really bang yet.

    when you get rocked by light weights (cottos brother) and hurt down at 147 it does not bode well when you go to 160

    Angulo and Kirkland can bang, but not as hard as Golovkin, Lemieux or Stevens.

    He wasn't matured as a fighter in those early fights though. I don't hold that against him. He's been hit by harder punchers more recently and held up fine.

    How do you know how hard Lemeux or Stevens hits? Like Angulo, and Kirkland their KO's come against bums.

    Of course, everybody is a bum when it serves your agenda. Which fighters are stopping non-bums then ?

    He does have a size advantage and youth.

    And we all know, he'll boil GGG down to 155-157 for an even greater size advantage.:yep

    Rubbish. Look at Kirkland and Angulo's resume. The vast majority of their KO's have been against bums. That is a fact. Against their better opposition, that power went down the drain, because neither are one punch power type guys. They are more the accumulation type. As far as which fighters are stopping non bums. Off the top of the head, Kovalev, and Chocolatito. Golovkin stopped Murray. Murray isn't a bum. Glowacki stopped Huck. There are guys getting stoppages at the top level.

    Canelo at 160 will be much stronger those 5 pounds are killing his power.

    Have you reviewed it with the volume off....?

    Initially I thought Canelo edged it....then again I had about 10 shots and a six pack by that point and not well concentrated.

    The crowd was 95% Opie fans and all the oohing and aahhing even while Canelo swinging at the air....!

    Cotto got in a lot of combinations and even trippled up on his jab while giving him a lot of angles and lateral movment.
    Whereas Floyd gave Canelo the right distance and peppered him with Rights...!


    I watched it twice silently and have it a draw or Cotto edging it by a round....( sober I might add ).

    Are these Butt hurt sore loser's as well.....?

    TV Azteca had Cotto winning 117-111
    La Prensa called the decision a robbery.
    Juan Manuel Marquez called it a draw.
    Bad Left Hook had it a draw.
    Bleacher Report had it 115-113 for Cotto.

    Apparently it has nothing to do with sore losers....just a very close fight where you cannot get swayed by the doofus commentating parrots...!!!

    You always seemed objective....not sure how you fell off the wagon on this one...!

    LMAO TV AZTECA hates Canelo cause Canelo is from Televisa, In case you didn't know it's like HBO hating on a Showtime fighter or versa.
