    And HBO pointed pointed out that when Ryan Rhodes would switch to southpaw he was getting man handled in there and Canelo did better against southpaws because it was easier to land his bazooka, and he has stated this before that he thinks its more simple to fight a south paw, he was battering rhodes with Straight Right hands to the body and head....It's a very good fight you should watch it if you can, Canelo was being a Agressive and a counter puncher as well. In a very dominant performance to me that was his breakout performance as Rhodes was supposed to really test him..

    One thing Trout didn't have to worry about was a killer right hand as cotto is a left handed fighter and that is his main weapon.. but Canelo has a killer left hook and a straight right hand that is a Bazooka... and the only people who haven't been affected where Mosely. Everyone one whoever got connected with that right would get Shook, like Gomez, Hatton, cintron, rhodes, J Cotto, and that left hook is sick as well.
