A thupi stalker amene mabokosi ku orthodox mochititsa, Cotto zachitika bwino nkhonya luso koma wakonda kubwera molunjika patsogolo, ndi kuvala adani pansi ndi wankhanza thupi kuukira. Cotto favors hooks and uppercuts to straight punches and turns every bout into a war of attrition. Doesn’t have lights-out punching power but is very punishing. Most of his stoppage victories have come late, pambuyo Goliyati wakhala opsinjika. Will often leave himself open to counters when trying to unleash his offense.
Alvarez:
An aukali, thupi womenya ndi underrated nkhonya luso quickness, ALVAREZ zambiri amavala adani pamodzi mogwirizana kuthamanga ndi heavy-anapereka nkhonya. Will use feints and counters to throw is opponents timing off and create openings for a strength-sapping body attack. Carries fight-changing power in both hands but sometimes doesn’t throw enough punches. While he is most known for his offensive skills, ALVAREZ ndi wamakhalidwe, koma chachikulu, kumbuyo luso amalowetsa ndi kutsekereza nkhonya.
BWINO
Yophika:
* Thupi Kuukira - Cotto si mwina yabwino thupi puncher mu masewera lero. He wings thunderous hooks on the inside that make contact with whatever is available: nthiti, mapewa, torso, chifuwa, ndi mikono, ndi chilango zotsatira.

Alvarez:
* Atangomva Mphamvu - ALVAREZ amanyamula bingu mu zonse nkhonya. He is knockout power in either hand, koma zopweteka kwambiri chida amakhala lake lamanzere mbedza. A single left hook rendered the iron-jawed Carlos Baldomir unconscious and his knockout of James Kirkland was a potential knockout of the year candidate.
* Mphamvu - ALVAREZ ndi thupi-kukhwima ndi thickly yomangidwa womenya ndi zamatsenga mphamvu. He is effective in backing fighters up, ngakhale pamene ankafika kugwejemula nkhonya. Against the smaller Josesito Lopez, anatukula iye pa mapazi ake ndipo anamutumiza chinsalu ndi nkhonya kuti anafika motsutsana Goliyati a chifuwa.
* Kulanga Lolamulira Kuukira - ALVAREZ wakonda kuti azivala adani pansi mu chikhalidwe Mexican mafashoni kulanga thupi. While he is economical with his punches, apulumutsa pazipita popezera mpata uliwonse nkhonya, makamaka kuphwanya anasiya mbedza kwa chiwindi.
SINDICHITA
Yophika:
* Zotsatira za Nkhondo - Cotto wakhala kupikisana motsutsa dziko kalasi chitsutso kwa zaka zoposa khumi.

* Chin - Pamodzi ndi chokhumudwitsa chimene chimachoka iye amakonda kutsutsa nkhonya, Cotto a Kusakhazikika chibwano kungakhale Chinsinsi tsoka. Cotto was wobbled or dropped in several of his earlier fights and then battered, linakhala magazi okhaokha ndipo TKO'd ake akumenyana Margarito (1St nkhondo) ndipo Pacquiao. Even the light-punching Floyd Mayweather staggered him late in their fight.
Alvarez:
* Mmodzi azithunzi omwe tikunena - ALVAREZ sikuti amakhala bwinobwino m'katikati mwa nkhondo. He comes in with a single game-plan and has not shown the ability to adjust even when his tactics are not working. He struggled in his wins over Austin Trout and Erislandy Lara and was easily out-boxed against Mayweather.
* Kutopa - ALVAREZ ntchito mwakhama mu masewero olimbitsa thupi nthawi zonse lalikulu mawonekedwe koma kaŵirikaŵiri amapeza zikumandivuta zonse kuweramira wonse kuzungulira, makamaka ngati ndewu kupita pakati ina zipolopolo.

PENECALE kuneneratu
Cotto adzatsegula kugwiritsa ntchito yake underrated nkhonya luso quickness, kusunthira laterally, ndipo jabbing pofuna kusunga ALVAREZ kuchokera atakhala mapazi ake. Alvarez will advance trying to establish his own jab and work the body. Whenever Alvarez gets too close, Cotto adzakhala pivot kutali ndi Akhazikitse ngodya ndi ochepa mwakhama jabs. The first two rounds will be strategical but tense. The eruption can happen at any time.
The kanthu amayamba kwambiri mu 3Rd yozungulira monga ALVAREZ kosalekeza akuyandikira ndi mphamvu Cotto kuyamba kuima nthaka yake. Like a couple of mountain rams butting heads and locking horns, mphamvu nkhonya amayamba kuuluka. Cotto will throw flashier combinations, zinapanga overhand ufulu mutu, kumanzere ngowe kwa thupi, ndi zovuta jabs kwa nkhope ndi torso. Alvarez will dig his toes in and throw thumping single shots, uppercuts ndi ngowe, kwa mutu ndi thupi, zimene zimabweretsa ndi kumva kuwawa pansi Cotto ndatsala diso ndi magazi akulowa m'kamwa mwake.
Kwa pakati zipolopolo, Cotto zakuya za nkhonya ndi skillset adzakhala ndi iye pang'ono patsogolo pa scorecards koma ALVAREZ kukula ndi mphamvu mwayi udzakhala, pang'onopang'ono ndipo ndithu, atavala Cotto pansi. Cotto’s three-and-four-punch combinations will gradually reduce to two-punch combinations and single hooks to the body. The slower pace will favor Alvarez and he will be able to control the tempo and dig in with hard punches to the body and right hands to the face.
Kupita 7TH wozungulira, ndi podwala pafupifupi ngakhale ndipo poona sakhoza kupweteka kwakukulu ALVAREZ, Cotto lidzasandukanso yake yofunika kwambiri ku nkhonya kunja. The change in tactic will momentarily bewilder Alvarez, amene anali kukhala omasuka malonda mu ngalande. The brief momentum shift will allow Cotto to regain a slight lead on the scorecards.
Pozindikira kuti ali kumbuyo ndi akukumana mdani amene anayamba kuchepa pang'onopang'ono, ALVAREZ ntchito matuza anzawo mu 9TH wozungulira, Kulondalonda Cotto, kum'kakamiza kusamuka kapena nkhonya kupulumuka, ndi kuchititsa iye amaika wapatali mphamvu pakutero. Whenever they get close, ALVAREZ ntchito mapewa ake kuti minofu Cotto ndi dulani mbali yofunikayo iye ndi waufupi ngowe ndi uppercuts, pakali pano akuzandima iye mu 10TH wozungulira.
Ndi nkhope yake morphing mu grotesque chigoba cha mwazi ndi kutupa, yooneka anakhala Cotto ati atipitire kusweka mu 11TH, pomenyana amasowa ndi winging ake ena bwino ngowe kuti thupi ndi mutu. Alvarez will be happy to trade hooks with him and the action will be intense. Late in the round, ALVAREZ adzakhala Dzikolo kugwejemula uppercut monga Cotto ukadalipo ndi Puerto Rican womenya adzaleka maondo ake, lake lamanzere diso pafupifupi anatseka ndi pakamwa pake ikudontha magazi. His heart will pull him to his feet and Alvarez will come in for the kill, thandizo Cotto kuti zingwe kumene nzeru nkhonya kokha unatha ndi belu.
Pambuyo wokhudza Magolovesi kuyamba chomaliza kuzungulira, ALVAREZ adzaukira Cotto kuyambira kumayambiliro. A pair of right hands to the side of the head will wobble Cotto, kum'kakamiza kuti popita ku zingwe ndi kugwa maondo ake. Referee Robert Byrd will administer the count with Cotto rising at the count of 8, potsutsana kutsutsa kuti ndi bwino kupitiriza. As soon as Byrd waves the fighters back together, ALVAREZ adzakhala amachichita kudutsa mphete, ankafika ndi dzanja lamanja ndi lamanzere uppercut. As Cotto falls back against the neutral corner, Byrd adzabwera pakati pawo kuletsa nkhondoyi, posonyeza ALVAREZ monga wopambana.
Wopambana ndi TKO pa 59 masekondi a 12H kuzungulira adzakhala Saul "Canelo" ALVAREZ!!!!
