I've been reading about how some people think that. Get real now. Pacquiao won't stop him that early. Cotto TKO 9.
My prediction is that Cotto will stop Pac in round 6 or 7.
pac is too small. cotto struggles against bigger guys... not midgets.
Is he a midget because he weighs 147 on fight night, the same as Floyd weighs? And if so, do you think Floyd is also too small to have a chance against Cotto?
Or is he a midget because he's half an inch shorter than Cotto?

I have a strange feeling it will end in the third round either way. When two proud sluggers meet they have a tendency of being kill-joys, of ending it early.
he seems to kick it up a notch when he sees his own blood...the morales fight, the solis fight, the marquez rematch...he sees blood, he becomes the opposite of juan diaz...the ferocity level goes up....as for the low blows, that could be a factor...good call
the ferocity goes up but his composure & poise to stick to mr. roach's gameplan becomes a little compromised...
i hope he improved in that regard as well...
if cotto is to win this fight, he needs to end the fight early....
im sorry but going into deep waters with PAC is not going to be favorable for cotto...PAC has an extra gear in the championship rounds whereas miguel seems to wind it down
yeah, taking pac to deep waters is a bad idea, especially for a gasser like cotto... that said, pac's never got hit to the body as hard as cotto can hit. it should atleast wear pac down a some.

barring any cuts or low blows on MP's part mi amigo...
this is only thought of as an even fight due to cotto's lack of performance last fight (as if there wasn't reasons for it though) and pac's superperformances against guys either 1. weightdrained or 2. defenseless that were in pac's favor.
if cotto gets his shit together and be the old cotto like we all know, lights out for pac. the only thing i see ****in cotto up is pacman's speed. his power can be handled by cotto fairly well. but a combo of it, or a shot he doesn't see? i read an interviewer ask mayorga, "how do you take the shots when you leave you chin out like that?" and he replied, "most of the time it isn't the shots you see but the shots you do not see."
man is that true. speed vs timing. we'll see.
yup...as with my PAC-DLH prediction; if PAC is not dented and still standing after 8 rounds, it means that miguel is in deep shit
you never know... cotto's body punching might have slowed pac down by then.
I think Pacquiao will stop him late, in 9 or 10.
Pacquiao is virtually Cotto's worst nightmare. Speed, power, footwork, work rate. Cotto goes down late.
We all know Cotto becomes a shell of himself after 6-7.
