    I think Garcia was a faster, more dangerous fighter at 147. At 154 he's lost his speed, but still retained his strength and some power. Eitherway, at either weight Canelo would have an advantage with speed, but as a young prospect it is essential and extremely important he learns to clinch and take a knee to clear his head when he's in trouble. He also got caught repeatedly with Cotto's right hand so he needs to move to his right to avoid it. He fights patiently so that helps out alot. I hope he'll learn when to box and when to brawl.

    who would you like to see Garcia and Alvarez fight next if they don't fight each other?
    do you think Freddy Roach can help Garcia sharpen his boxing skills? he only worked with Raoch for 3 weeks in this camp vs Margarito?

    i don't think cotto is a hard puncher at all and stunded Alvarez on several occasions
