    Aren't you the guy who taught hopkins was going to school and knock out Kovalev?

    Respect your opinion but I think Cotto's wins. I believe he lands so shots so clean and hard while greatly limiting what is landed on him, leaving robbery out of the question for the majority of rounds. Cotto can even score a late TKO here imo.

    It was to me a 50/50 match up when the fight was first signed. But now there are other factors and Canelo should win. This is a prediction thread and not a real break down ****ysis thread.

    I agree. It will be interesting to see how Alvarez deals with Cotto's left hook to the ribs. I think body work will win this fight for Cotto.

    I picked Hopkins to win but I never picked Hopkins to KO Kovalev so I don't know where you're going there? I also picked Froch to beat Bute and Ward to beat Kessler to. You can't get them all right.

    :good
    That's a bold prediction and one that I don't see happening. Canelo is very durable and I would be shocked if Cotto stopped him. It would be probably the biggest shock of the year if that happened.

    Oh I'm sure you picked clearly and decisively
    Without even a hint of ambiguity

    The thing that I see is, all the guys who were good enough to land clean punches on Canelo, were not big punchers. And all the guys that were big punchers that landed on Canelo, were not good enough to land many clean punches. Cotto is a guy that I think can consistently do both.

    Canelo is one of the protected and a future cash cow they want to create
    I hope Cotto wins but there's a good chance he will get robbed if he doesn't make it an obvious win

    Cotto by shocking KO mid 11th round
    With the belt issue he can't allow this to go into the hands of the judges 😁

    Man i feel you!! I hope this doesnt happen. Please just no robbery, that could hurt so bad.

    PPL will just say "Well hes on his way out anyways so who cares" THAT JUST DAMN WRONG!!!

    Only thing i disagree with you on is a stoppage. that Chin is unporven from Canelo, we shall see

    Cotto is gonna mentally quit as soon as he gets ripped with hard/fast combos. This will not be a back and forth war. The only way it goes the distance is if Cotto goes into survival mode.
