有竞争是整个历史传奇. The Hatfields and The McCoys, 在凯普莱特和蒙太古和纽约洋基和波士顿红袜队都是苦的争斗. It can be argued that the most brutal is the long-standing boxing rivalry between Puerto Rican fighters against their Mexican counterparts. The next chapter matches the experience and heavy hands of Puerto Rican icon Miguel Cotto against the youth and power of Mexican dynamo Saul “Canelo” Alvarez. When they meet on Saturday night, 两个战士将携带自己国家的骄傲成环和斯巴达勇士的口头禅, 他们从战场上出现了屏蔽或在其上. Who will be carrying his shield at the end of their encounter and who will be carried out on his?

风格

熟:

从正统的立场物理死缠烂打谁盒, 库托已经开发出更好的拳技，但还是更喜欢直视前方来, 穿对手打倒一个恶性身体攻击. 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, 之后，他的对手已经被拖垮. Will often leave himself open to counters when trying to unleash his offense.

阿尔瓦雷斯:

一个积极的, 有被低估的拳技和速度的物理战斗机, 阿尔瓦雷斯常穿对手打倒稳定的压力和重手拳. Will use feints and counters to throw is opponents timing off and create openings for a strength-sapping body attack. 双手拥有改变战斗的力量，但有时出拳不够. 虽然他最出名的是他的进攻技巧, 阿尔瓦雷斯有象样, 但不是很大, 防御技能打滑和阻塞拳.

优势

熟:

* 身体攻击 - 库托很可能是最好的身体穿孔在当今体育. He wings thunderous hooks on the inside that make contact with whatever is available: 肋骨, 肩膀, 躯干, 胸部, 武器, 与惩罚结果.

* 力量 - 库托是一个强大的和物理的战斗机. Even as he has grown from junior welterweight up to middleweight, 他仍然是一个体力, 能穿下更大的对手.

* 心脏 - 库托承载了太多的骄傲，当他进入环步骤. He has been in a number of wars where he’s been cut, 撞倒, 或其他不良情况, 和库托已经显示出一颗冠军的心脏.

阿尔瓦雷斯:

* 冲切力 - 阿尔瓦雷斯携带雷鸣双拳. He is knockout power in either hand, 但他最致命的武器驻留在他的左钩拳. 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.

* 力量 - 阿尔瓦雷斯是一个物理成熟和厚厚的建造战斗机不可思议的力量. 他在支持战士方面很有效, 即使不登陆刷新拳. Against the smaller Josesito Lopez, 他把他吹脚和送他到画布上用拳，落在对他的对手的胸部.

* 惩治身体攻击 - 阿尔瓦雷斯更愿意在惩罚身体的墨西哥传统服装穿他的对手下来. While he is economical with his punches, 他提供了最大的杠杆上每一拳, 尤其是破碎的左钩拳到肝脏.

弱点

熟:

* 战争的影响 - 库托已经同台竞技世界级的反对了十多年. He suffered two brutal losses to Antonio Margarito and Manny Pacquiao and suffered punishment in his wins over Ricardo Torres, 朱达, 和莫斯利. While he has had a resurgence working with Freddie Roach, 他先前战争的累积效应可能是一个不利.

* 容易打 - 库托已经做了改进，他的防守，但还是有他的最好的防守就是进攻的心态. His wide open offense and relentless body attack often leaves him open to be hit with counterpunches, 主要挂钩和勾拳.

* 金 - 结合的罪行，让他容易对付拳, 库托的摇摇欲坠的下巴可以是灾难. Cotto was wobbled or dropped in several of his earlier fights and then battered, 流血和TKO'd在他的战斗打击马加里托 (1ST战斗) 和帕奎奥. Even the light-punching Floyd Mayweather staggered him late in their fight.

阿尔瓦雷斯:

* 一维 - 阿尔瓦雷斯不中旬拼很好地适应. 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.

* 疲劳 - 阿尔瓦雷斯努力工作在健身房和始终处于最佳状态，但往往发现很难去全速对整个圆, 尤其是他的战斗进入中部或淘汰赛后. In his match with Austin Trout, 阿尔瓦雷斯存在严重的疲劳，有时甚至发现自己备份.

* 还是容易打-Alvarez是一种犯罪行为，第一种类型的战斗机谁喜欢施加压力，他的对手. He will leave himself open to counter punches, 尤其是右手和反左钩.

* 阿方索·戈麦斯 (4/12/08) - 库托放一个惊人的显示器上, 混合拳技与一个恶性的身体攻击，完全抹杀流行的“竞争者”明矾戈麦斯由第5轮将军澳. Cotto dominated the action and scored knockdowns in the 2nd, 3RD, 和第5轮, 击败戈麦斯就范.

阿尔瓦雷斯:

* 詹姆斯·柯克兰 (5/9/15) - 这是 2015 版本哈格勒，赫恩斯的. Kirkland attacked relentlessly at the bell and Alvarez responded in kind. Alvarez scored a knockdown in the 1ST 圆形和挫败柯克兰的短暂成功的时刻, 地板他的勾拳 3RD 圆, 只片刻后结束了他一个风景如画的右手前.

* 克米特辛特龙 (11/26/11) - 让他 3RD 卫冕, 阿尔瓦雷斯使它看起来容易对褪了色的前中量级冠军. Alvarez made Cintron appear older than his true age of 32, 而惩罚他轻松. Alvarez scored a knockdown in the 4日 轮殴打他无情，迫使停工的前 5日.

* 卡洛斯Baldomir (9/18/10) - 阿尔瓦雷斯是 20 岁神童面临持久的前世界冠军巴尔多米尔. 阿尔瓦雷斯早早就成功拳击，利用速度和技巧的优势横扫前五轮. 但令人难忘的是他在第 6 场的表现. 阿尔瓦雷斯震撼了巴尔多米尔，最后一记左勾拳落下, 使他昏迷之前，他打的垫子和处理了他唯一的停工损失在16年的职业生涯.

PENECALE预测

库托将打开利用他的被低估的拳技和速度, 横向移动, 和猛刺在努力让阿尔瓦雷斯从设定自己的脚. Alvarez will advance trying to establish his own jab and work the body. Whenever Alvarez gets too close, 库托将转动的路程，踩角度有几个硬刺戳. The first two rounds will be strategical but tense. The eruption can happen at any time.

该行动将开始在加紧 3RD 圆如阿尔瓦雷斯不断地越来越近，迫使库托，开始站在自己的立场. Like a couple of mountain rams butting heads and locking horns, 电源拳开始飞翔. Cotto will throw flashier combinations, 特色上手权利的头部, 左钩身体, 和硬刺戳面部和躯干. Alvarez will dig his toes in and throw thumping single shots, 勾拳和挂钩, 既头部和身体, 这导致在库托的左眼和血液擦伤从他的嘴里渗出.

在整个中间轮, 库托的优越的拳击和技能将让他稍稍领先的记分卡上，但阿尔瓦雷斯的规模和实力优势将, 稳扎稳打, 穿着库托下来. 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.

在进入 7日 圆, 与回合几乎连和传感他不能伤害更大阿尔瓦雷斯, 库托将恢复他的焦点回到拳击在外面. The change in tactic will momentarily bewilder Alvarez, 谁正在成为舒适买卖的战壕. The brief momentum shift will allow Cotto to regain a slight lead on the scorecards.

意识到他的背后，面对对手谁是逐渐淡化, 阿尔瓦雷斯将适用于在起泡压力 9日 圆, 缠扰库托, 迫使他移动或冲生存, 并导致他花费宝贵的能量这样做. Whenever they get close, 阿尔瓦雷斯将用自己的肩膀肌肉库托和剪辑他的短钩和勾拳, 暂时错开了他的 10日 圆.

随着他的脸变形了血怪诞面具和肿胀, 一个看似花了库托会去打破了 11日, 拼命攻击翼状及他的一些最好的钩的身体和头部. Alvarez will be happy to trade hooks with him and the action will be intense. 后期全面, 阿尔瓦雷斯将土地冲洗勾拳作为库托是敞开的，并波多黎各战斗机将下降到膝盖, 他的左眼几乎关闭，他的嘴里渗出血. His heart will pull him to his feet and Alvarez will come in for the kill, 后备库托到拳的交换仅由钟停止绳索.

触摸手套后，开始最后一轮, 阿尔瓦雷斯将攻击库托从发病. A pair of right hands to the side of the head will wobble Cotto, 迫使他错开的绳索和下降到膝盖. Referee Robert Byrd will administer the count with Cotto rising at the count of 8, 激烈竞争，他是确定继续. As soon as Byrd waves the fighters back together, 阿尔瓦雷斯将整个环春天, 登陆右手和左勾拳. As Cotto falls back against the neutral corner, 伯德将加强它们之间并停止战斗, 信号阿尔瓦雷斯成为赢家.
