STYLE

Kupikwa:

Stalker kimwili ambao masanduku kutoka msimamo halisi, Cotto ina maendeleo bora ndondi ujuzi lakini bado vyema kuja mbele moja kwa moja, na kuvaa wapinzani chini na matata mwili mashambulizi. 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, baada ya mpinzani wake imekuwa alisikitishwa. Will often leave himself open to counters when trying to unleash his offense.

Alvarez:

Fujo, mpiganaji kimwili na ujuzi underrated ndondi na wepesi, Alvarez mara nyingi wears wapinzani chini na shinikizo thabiti na kukwepa makonde nzito mitupu. 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 na heshima, lakini si kubwa, ujuzi kujihami kuteleza na kuzuia kukwepa makonde.

NZURI

Kupikwa:

* Mwili mashambulizi - Cotto ni kabisa uwezekano bora mwili puncher katika mchezo wa leo. He wings thunderous hooks on the inside that make contact with whatever is available: mbavu, mabega, kiwiliwili, kifua, na silaha, na matokeo kuwaadhibu.

* Nguvu - Cotto ni imara na kimwili mpiganaji. Even as he has grown from junior welterweight up to middleweight, yeye bado nguvu za kimwili, uwezo wa amevaa chini wapinzani kubwa.

* Moyo - Cotto hubeba mengi ya kiburi wakati yeye hatua katika pete. He has been in a number of wars where he’s been cut, knocked chini, au katika hali nyingine mbaya, na Cotto umeonyesha moyo bingwa wa.

Alvarez:

* Kuchomwa Power - Alvarez hubeba radi katika ngumi wote. He is knockout power in either hand, lakini silaha yake makubwa zaidi anakaa katika ndoano wake wa kushoto. 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.

* Nguvu - Alvarez ni kimwili-madeni na thickly-kujengwa mpiganaji na nguvu za uchawi. He is effective in backing fighters up, hata wakati si kutua kukwepa makonde kuvuta. Against the smaller Josesito Lopez, yeye akamwinua mbali ya miguu yake na kumpeleka kwa turubai na kukwepa makonde ambayo ilitua juu ya kifua mpinzani wake.

* Kuwaadhibu Mwili mashambulizi - Alvarez anapendelea kuvaa wapinzani wake chini katika jadi Mexico mtindo wa kuwaadhibu mwili. While he is economical with his punches, yeye alitangaza upeo kujiinua juu ya kila ngumi, hasa kusagwa kushoto ndoano kwa ini.

UDHAIFU

Kupikwa:

* Madhara ya vita - Cotto imekuwa mashindano dhidi ya dunia daraja la upinzani kwa zaidi ya muongo. He suffered two brutal losses to Antonio Margarito and Manny Pacquiao and suffered punishment in his wins over Ricardo Torres, Zab Yuda, na Shane Mosley. While he has had a resurgence working with Freddie Roach, madhara ya nyongeza ya vita vyake kabla inaweza kuwa hasara.

* Rahisi Hit - Cotto imefanya maboresho na utetezi wake lakini bado ana mawazo kwamba utetezi wake bora ni kosa la mema. His wide open offense and relentless body attack often leaves him open to be hit with counterpunches, kimsingi kulabu na uppercuts.

* Chin - Pamoja na kosa kwamba majani yake kukabiliwa na kukabiliana na kukwepa makonde, Cotto ya shaky kidevu inaweza kuwa kichocheo kwa ajili ya maafa. Cotto was wobbled or dropped in several of his earlier fights and then battered, yaliyoijaza damu na TKO'd katika mapambano yake dhidi ya Margarito (1st mapambano) na Pacquiao. Even the light-punching Floyd Mayweather staggered him late in their fight.

Alvarez:

* Moja Dimensional - Alvarez haina kukabiliana vizuri katika katikati ya mapambano. 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.

* Uchovu - Alvarez kazi kwa bidii katika mazoezi na ni daima katika sura kubwa lakini mara nyingi anaona ni vigumu kwenda Tilt kamili kwa pande zote nzima, hasa kama mapambano yake kwenda katika raundi katikati au baadaye. In his match with Austin Trout, Alvarez ilionyesha uchovu mbaya kwa nyakati na hata alijikuta inaunga mkono juu.

* Rahisi Hit -Alvarez bado ni aina ya kosa moja wa mpiganaji ambaye anapenda kuomba shinikizo kwa wapinzani wake. He will leave himself open to counter punches, mkono hasa haki na kukabiliana kushoto kulabu.

PENECALE utabiri

Cotto itafungua kutumia yake underrated ujuzi wa ndondi na wepesi, kusonga laterally, na jabbing katika jitihada kuweka Alvarez kutoka kuweka miguu yake. Alvarez will advance trying to establish his own jab and work the body. Whenever Alvarez gets too close, Cotto itakuwa pivot mbali na hatua juu pembe na wachache jabs ngumu. The first two rounds will be strategical but tense. The eruption can happen at any time.

Hatua itaanza kuimarisha katika 3rd pande zote kama Alvarez daima anapata karibu na vikosi Cotto kuanza kusimamia msimamo wake. Like a couple of mountain rams butting heads and locking horns, kukwepa makonde nguvu itaanza kuruka. Cotto will throw flashier combinations, akishirikiana haki overhand kwa kichwa, kulabu kushoto ya mwili, na jabs vigumu uso na kiwiliwili. Alvarez will dig his toes in and throw thumping single shots, uppercuts na kulabu, wote kwa kichwa na mwili, ambayo kusababisha abrasion chini ya Cotto ya kushoto jicho na damu mtiririko kutoka katika kinywa chake.

Katika raundi katikati, Cotto ya kushinda ndondi na skillset itakuwa na yeye kidogo mbele kwenye scorecards lakini ukubwa na nguvu faida Alvarez itakuwa, polepole na hakika, amevaa Cotto chini. 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.

Kwenda katika 7th pande zote, na bout karibu hata na kuhisi hawezi kuumiza kubwa Alvarez, Cotto itarejea mtazamo wake nyuma ndondi nje. The change in tactic will momentarily bewilder Alvarez, ambaye alikuwa kuwa biashara vizuri katika mitaro. The brief momentum shift will allow Cotto to regain a slight lead on the scorecards.

Baada ya kutambua kuwa yeye ni nyuma na yanayowakabili mpinzani ambaye ni polepole fading, Alvarez itatumika mashambulizi shinikizo katika 9th pande zote, kunyemelea Cotto, kulazimisha yake hoja au ngumi na kuishi, na kusababisha yeye kutanua nishati ya thamani kwa kufanya hivyo. Whenever they get close, Alvarez itatumia mabega yake kwa misuli Cotto na kipande cha picha yake kwa kulabu mfupi na uppercuts, Idadi kubwa ya muda mfupi tu naye katika 10th pande zote.

Na uso wake morphing katika kinyago za ajabu ya damu na uvimbe, Cotto inaonekana alitumia itakuwa kwenda kwa kuvunja katika 11th, kushambulia mno na winging baadhi ya kulabu zake bora kwa mwili na kichwa. Alvarez will be happy to trade hooks with him and the action will be intense. Late in the round, Alvarez itatua uppercut kuvuta kama Cotto ni wazi na Puerto Rican mpiganaji zitashuka kwa magoti yake, jicho lake la kushoto karibu kufunga na kuvuja damu mdomoni mwake. His heart will pull him to his feet and Alvarez will come in for the kill, inaunga mkono Cotto kwa kamba ambapo kubadilishana ya kukwepa makonde ni ilisitisha tu kwa kengele.

Baada ya kugusa kinga kuanza raundi ya mwisho, Alvarez mashambulizi Cotto kutoka mwanzo. A pair of right hands to the side of the head will wobble Cotto, kulazimisha yake yumba kwa kamba na kuanguka kwa magoti yake. Referee Robert Byrd will administer the count with Cotto rising at the count of 8, kwa nguvu ubishi kwamba yeye ni Sawa ili kuendelea. As soon as Byrd waves the fighters back together, Alvarez spring hela pete, kutua mkono wa kulia na upande wa kushoto uppercut. As Cotto falls back against the neutral corner, Byrd zitaongeza katika baina yao na kuacha kupambana, dalili Alvarez kama mshindi.

Mshindi na TKO katika 59 sekunde ya 12h pande zote itakuwa Sauli "Canelo" Alvarez!!!!
