Alvarez ($5100) is a slight favorite over Cotto ($4600), largely because of Alvarez’ physical advantages over Cotto in terms of height, reach and, of course, age. It breaks down as a case of youth (Alvarez) vs. experience (Cotto). Who do you like? Below find the CompuBox statistics for these two gifted warriors:
The #CottoCanelo game is loaded from top to bottom with an array of future Hall of Famers, past and present world champions, Olympians, and stars from virtually all around the world. Below find the complete line-up with corresponding fighter salaries:
Erroll Spence ($5900), Erislandy Lara ($5700) and Jermall Charlo ($5600) are prohibited favorites. Spence averages 108.5 fantasy points, highest among all fighters in this game, but his high salary against Alejandro Barrera will cost a lot in terms of this game’s salary cap of $25,000.
Lara may be overpriced, based on his 59.7 average fantasy points, but his expected offensive output practically guarantees a win versus Jan Zaveck. IBF super middleweight champion James DeGale ($4700) and former world titlist Lucian Bute ($4500) battle in a highly competitive game, on paper, in this game.
Yudel Jhonson and Daquan Arnett are in a pick ’em fight with both fighters listed at $4600. Tyson Fury ($4600) is a live ‘dog in his world heavyweight fight against defending champion Wladimir Klitschko ($5400).
Other fights to choose from include Randy Caballero ($5100) vs. Lee Haskins ($4500) and Tahaski Miura ($4700) vs. Francisco Vargas ($5200).
