    But you said all he fights are injured has been bums. Besides, just because you beat him in that video game it doesn't mean you can do it for real. Put the 360 controller down, sip some haterade, and come back to earth.
    Look ginger!

    He has more power and better stamina. Cotto could minimize those with a good body attack, but he's cut back on going downstairs lately. It's sad because his body attack was one of the things that made me a fan of his.

    Well, he's more robotic than Cotto.

    Canelo need to fight some tough B level guys for another couple eyars, forget about some super fight for now. Some top centenders in his own division before looking at big fights w/ Cotto or Mayweather. He doesn't need to try and unify belts, but fight some tough no nonsense fighters that will make him work 12 rounds for a win, even if it's ugly. And I don't mean vs. the likes of M. Hatton.

    Match him up with maybe Sewchell Powell. I'd say Molina if he wasn't fighting Kirkland next. Or even Grady Brewer, Daniel Santos or Yuri Foreman. Not sure how much Corey Spinks has left. But might be good. And if he can't beat Spinks, he has no place in the ring for either Cotto or Mayweather.

    Cotto would school Canelo. The same way he did to Alfonso Gomez.

    I think Cotto's brother did a better job at taking Canelo's pressure without folding down than Cotto himself would have done if he was the one fighting there. It took a good amount of punishment from Canelo to stop him.

    I they ever fight, Cotto will start to run as soon as he gets hit a few times like he tends to do, Canelo will put the pressure on him and it'll be harder for Cotto to run, because Canelo is faster than one legged Foreman, old Mayorga, or slow as syrup Margarito. Imo he'll run out of gas in the later rounds giving Canelo a chance to pummel him into submission.

    All the Blacks, Mexicans, Europeans, and rest of the gangs that bash Cotto to death at *********** have flocked over here all of a sudden.

    cotto of today is still a lot better and stronger than his own brother that fought canelo out of his weight class and hurt him to go along with it just imagine what younger cotto would do

    Canelo has **** stamina and roughly as bad as Cotto's stamina. They both has shakey chins. Canelo wins in the power department, but he's nowhere near faster than Foreman. I'd say he matches up with Mayorga's speed. Cotto wins the speed and skill department and as far as experience goes we know where Cotto stands here.

    If he fights the same he's been fighting the rest of em...he gets laid out. The man was hurt by a timid ass Kermit Cintron. He also lacks an inside game and an outside game. Canelo is a pure mid-range fighter and this will be his undoing. He's also there to be hit. If you're there to get hit, Cotto rearranges your face. Can canelo handle being swollen or cut? Who knows...I'm not saying the kid can't do it. To think he wipes the floor and makes it look like a tune-up...:lol::rofl:lol:...No. :bart

    If the fight ever gets made and I'm expecting it to...I'd put money on Cotto.
