    I agree. PBF-Berto should be on free TV or Showtime with that said the undercard is great. But yeah Cotto-Canelo is a mega fight and I hope the fight does well which will be great for the sport.

    If cotto can control the pace of the fight and pivot the way he has been in his last 3 fights he will outbox canelo with canelo basically trying to come forward and head hunt out of frustration

    Cottos jab will be key in this fight as well

    Im going with experience and superior fighter over youth and power

    Word is the purse split was something close to 70/30 in Cotto's favor, if that ain't
    motivation enough for Canelo to tap that ass than :conf

    I can't pick a winner just yet bro
    Cotto did evolve into a big head diva but he is a warrior.

    Canelo always takes the hard fights IMO:deal

    I just worry that in the past Canelo would blow up overnight and force his size and power on to guys, except Floyd, and that creates a stamina issue as well. Kirkland landed some shots on Canelo that were so widely telegraphed it was funny....and sad that they landed :!:

    Cotto has this self righteousness and strong belief that he is a NEW IMPROVED Cotto but all is doing differently with Freddy is going back to boxing and using that body punch.

    If Cotto boxes and moves we might see Canelo looking confused and having a Floyd flashback:lol:

    Canelo can KO Cotto no doubt
    Cotto can NOT KO Canelo

    50/50 fight

    This is going to be GREAT:happy

    Good fight.

    A Cotto win won't "shock" me but I am fully expecting and predicting Alvarez to get the big W here.

    I'd favor Canelo but this fool gases so hard mid fight that it makes me hesitant about him.

    Will be a sad day for mexicans here. Better start getting behing santa cruz from now on.

    Cotto will prove tito wrong, avenge his brother and send canelo to the hypejob club with chavez jr
