What if Canelo loose? This it could be very interesting because anyone that know about Boxing really knows that it could happen. I really know that Canelo got he's skills but lack in somethings that could give him problems fighting with someone like Cotto. Canelo got problems defending the jab. And Cotto got one off the best jabs in boxing. Canelo usually use 1,2 combinations all the time. And Cotto can saw that from distance. Canelo usually leave his opponent put he's tempo on the fight, that could put in trouble. Honestly I put my money on Cotto, Canelo never have an opponent like him, because Cotto hit very hard and love to put pressure all the time. Then :bbb what if Cotto KO Canelo by the 8 or 9 round that is my prediction:hat.
Wow. What a question. Everybody always speculates and worries about fighters entering the ring too tight. But, Jesus, what a revolutionary thought. What if a fighter entered the ring too loose?
I've always fancied Canelo in this match up for the couple years that it has been discussed. My opinions have only been furthered in their fights since it was first brought up.
Off course this fight got meaning for the Boxing world is obvious that because off that everyone put GGG in every Cotto vs Canelo post but lets stay in the post and wait when Cotto show to all the unbelievers.
GG wishes he were part of this "meaningless" fight. Oh well, like you say, he's only about those petty handouts anyway. He would never take the chances Cotto took to be in his shoes, he'd rather have his fans do his talking for him I guess.
I think it would be bad for boxing, since Myweather retired and pac is "injured" Boxing doesnt seem to be talked about as much and ppvs have dropped just look at GGG vs Lemiux. The stars other than those two are Cotto and Canelo. If Canelo loses he will lose fans and Cotto will probably fight no more than 2 fighrs with Wlad being the only superstar left but in Europe and close to retirement
You do realize that GGG took his chances by simply beginning his pro career at his actual fighting wieght right? He could have done like Canelo and Cotto and JCC Jr and began his career 2,3 even 5 divisions S of his actual division but instead he showed HUEVOS that Americans don't HAVE typically. The only Americans who fight in their natural wieght division are HWs and guess what......... They typically SUCK HUEVOS.
Are you sure it wasn't a strategy move right from the get knowing that there was no one there of note or would be no one once he got going? You know all these things could be and are planned don't you? Just the same as weight cutters looking to get an advantage over guys, divisions themselves can also be scouted now and in the potential future.
I highly doubt his early career managers were looking out for his best interests. They hid him on undercards and away from viewers and paid off the WBA to keep their titlist, Sturm, from being starched by a 15 fight novice. :-(
Whatever you chose to believe is up to you. I just think it's naïve to think these guys are not well aware of what the risk/reward factors are, where the best ones are at, and how best to navigate and use them for their own benefit.
To answer your question, no I don't think Canelo is promiscuous. And no it isn't gonna happen for you.
