Cotto-Alvarez weight set at 155; likely date Nov. 7 or Nov. 21

Ive made Canelo a decent fav. I think hell be too big and too strong for Cotto. Cotto has looked good against pretty shot fighters recently but Canelo will be a completely different animal. I see a wide UD or a late stoppage.

Canelo's a natural middleweight or above.
Cotto's a natural welterweight or superwelter.

On paper, Canelo IS too big and strong for Cotto. He's also a hell of a lot younger.
However... fights aren't fought on paper, and I expect Cotto to surprise a lot of people by upsetting the young'un.
