    Some posters who consider themselves experts on boxing don't even know this happened, for some reason. Either that or...they're stark raving hypocrites? But surely, they just didn't know, some how, against all odds.

    Canelo made his pro debut at age 15 as is usual in Mexico!

    I still remember this fight like it was yesterday. And the crazy thing about it is that Jose Cotto was not a real big puncher at all.

    24 KO wins out of 37 pro fights. Would hardly says he's Malinaggi.

    He was hurt here:

    That said his drilling is top notch. The moment he was rocked he started slipping like a maniac and within a few seconds he'd recovered.

    Don't see where he's hurt. At best momentarily stunned.

    You think Canelo was cutting to much weight at that time?

    He was buzzed for sure, but GGG couldn't close the show. Canelo's waist movement is on point though.

    I would never say he was, he wasn't a hitter like Miguel though. Saw enough of his fights to know that..........and his opponents weren't the sturdiest

    Honestly I don't know. I've never seen that duplicated again. Even against decent hitters his chin has been as solid as can be. I think it was just an anomaly

    He was still a kid. He took four flush shots from Jose Cotto, who could punch as a lightweight, and was obviously a very good finisher.

    In boxing, sometimes you get punched in the head.
