To be clear, Cotto vs. Canelo is not for our middleweight championship. The fight is being fought at a catchweight, enforced beneath the division’s limit. That’s why we stripped Cotto, and named the winner of the Golovkin vs. Lemieux fight our middleweight kingpin. Either way, hopefully we see the winner of this fight take on Golovkin in the near future, although Floyd Mayweather’s name will be in the mix for a rematch against both.
This fight is the classic match between aged, wise veteran, utilizing his wits and skills, against young, hungry lion, looking to power his way through and take over in full. It’s also a classic match in another way – as it’s the latest high profile Mexico vs. Puerto Rico boxing match, which always manages to add extra fuel to the fire.
Will Cotto be able to survive Canelo’s power, and his work rate? What does Freddie Roach have in store for the game plan? Will Canelo step up to the plate in his biggest moment since the one-sided defeat to Mayweather? Just a few of the questions to consider here on fight night.
As for the undercard, Guillermo Rigondeaux has just been added. He’s taking on Filipino Drian Francisco. There’s also a super featherweight fight between Takashi Miura, and unbeaten Francisco Vargas, as well as a bantamweight fight between unbeaten Randy Caballero, and Lee Haskins. Also on the undercard will be Jayson Velez vs. Ronny Rios.
