Miguel Cotto and Canelo Alvarez lock horns in the latest chapter of the storied Puerto Rico-Mexico rivalry at a 155-pound catchweight when they contest THE RING magazine middleweight championship. The HBO Pay-Per-View broadcast begins at 9:00 ET/PT.
Cotto (40-4, 33 knockouts) had been set to also put his WBC title on the line against Canelo (45-1-1, 32 KOs) until he balked at paying a reported $1.1 million – a $800,000 step-aside fee to IBF/WBA beltholder Gennady Golovkin and $300,000 in sanctioning fees. He was then stripped and now only Canelo can win the WBC strap on Saturday at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino Event Center in Las Vegas.
The bout is widely thought of as a 50/50 fight; however, our experts firmly believe the scales will tip in one man’s favor.
