If that was at the end of the round hat fight would have kept going.

Man, it took 6 flush shots to take miura down

The Boxnation guys are spot on saying that both of those guys are tough as nails. gently caress.

It's almost midnight here and I'm starting to think that I'm getting too old to stay up for PPV boxing. I need to move to the best coast.

It should be more acceptable to have even rounds because a lot of first rounds aren't really one way or the other

So far this is a very even fight.

Canelo is defending against the left hook pretty well but left his guard down after he tagged Cotto and ate a pretty good left from Cotto. Even fight.

I have it even so far but I think Canelo fades down the stretch and Cotto's movement gives him a slight edge. Unless Canelo can land something to slow Cotto down.

The Canelo bias is real from the HBO crew tonight. Tells you where the money is.

Canelo now being compared to Roberto Duran for beating on older, smaller guys (?) by Roy Jones.

Cotto's punches don't seem as powerful as canelo's but I like the angles

cotto's wife's tits are probably winning him a lot of these rounds imo

Cotto needs to do that for the rest of the match. That was a good round.

I thought he was going to get decapitated when he was standing in there exchanging, Canelo was throwing some bombs.

I think like 6 is canelo's and 7/8 are Cotto's

It's all really close and inconclusive though

Cotto's family look like caricatures, those tits and that guy's haircut are ridiculous.
