Miguel Cotto vs. Canelo Alvarez staff picks and predictions

Miguel Cotto or Canelo Alvarez? See who the Bloody Elbow staff is picking to win Saturday night's mega-fight in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The good news: There's a really great boxing fight tomorrow night featuring a legend of the sport (Miguel Cotto) and the heir apparent to Mayweather and Pacquiao as the sport's biggest star (Canelo Alvarez). Bad news? That UFC card in Mexico is directly opposite said fight. In fact, it's a 3+ hour card, so you'll have some multitasking to do if you want to watch both.

Anyway, the BE staff is unanimously picking Canelo to become the WBC middleweight champion over Cotto, whose belt was vacated after he didn't fork over a preposterous amount of sanctioning fees to the "non-profit" WBC.
