    We will find out a lot about Canelo in the next 5 years.

    He was green for the Mayweather fight. Now he's 25 and ready to roll.

    If he's anywhere as good as he's hyped he should obliterate a past prime Welterweight tomorrow. He should KO Quillen, Lemieux and Lee. And he should give GGG a competitive fight.

    We will see if he can do it. Looking forward to it.

    Or 7 hours until we see Canelo come in overweight and that he really is a middleweight and has no excuses not to fight Golovkin should he win.

    What if Cotto decides that he will not fight unless it's at 155lbs?:rofl
    That would be a complete sh*t show

    This was a very hard fight for me to pick. Now with all of this WBC and step aside money with GGG stuff it has made it much easier for me. There is no way in hell Cotto can win a decision so I'm putting my money on Canelo.

    Green in 2013, seasoned in 2015. He fought Lara, Angulo, and Kirkland. He's legit now, folks.

    Initially, I thought he was too green, but seeing him now, I think he's just limited. Granted he has grown a bit since, it's nothing drastic. He was what, 42 fights in? Going from 42 fights to 45 isn't going to make you ungreen lol

    I don't think he's the next Mexican great either. Cotto will take him to school, again.

    So Canelo sits on his ass at all times unless he fights?

    The time is now and he can truly have boxinf fans and casuals look foward to boxing for years to come! but....After he loses to Cotto tommorw he'll have to take a step back and possibly get a new trainer to get to the next level
