I can't see Miguel Cotto winning by decision in any way. Manny Pacquiao will most likely score more with his speed and quickness. While Cotto must try to catch up to Pacquiao in order to score, but if the fight last 12 rounds Pacquiao the faster of the two and the better condition fighter will win.
Remember Pacquiao will be more active for 12 rounds than Clottey or Mosley.
Cotto might slow him down if he can manage to hit him, but if he doesn't knock him out Manny will still be in the fight and will win by decision. Sure knock downs count for more points , but Cotto knocking Pacquiao once won't be enough and if he does it twice, well I cant see Manny going twice to the canvass without being knocked out.
So I really believe Cotto must win by K.O in order to win and you all know if the fight is close enough Cotto will lose the decision just so we can see Mayweather vs Paquiao.
Although if the fight some way does go by decision I believe Manny will win cleanly by at least two points. Manny Pacquiao can win by K. O or Decision, but for Cotto knocking out Pacquiao is his only hope. Just MO
No he doesnt. he is the better boxer, with better skills, much more power and strength!!!!!
Cotto will be fine!!!!!
cotto needs to end it before the 7th or else cotto will gas and then run... backing up againt pac is a bad idea
Cotto is a much better boxer than Pacman,plus he is bigger!!Pacman is not outboxing Cotto for the best of 12 rounds!!Cotto-good jab,Pacman-no jab!!
pac is a greater athlete and fighter than cotto. his resume speeks for itself. cotto is not a better boxer than pac. what cotto has in this fight is size. if they were of equal size pac wipes the floor with him.
If anybody gets a gift decision I think it will be Cotto because of the fact that he signed an extension with Top Rank. Pacquiao only has one or two fights left. Cotto stans are such hypocrites. The Clottey and Mosley fights? That's what I thought.
LOL, I try to forget what a hater you are, but everytime you get on the keyboard you make it so damned obvious it's pathetic. Yeah, I'm convinced, a Puerto Rican definitely made off with your girl. Lol
WTF is cotto doing trying to win by decision??? cotto has a huge size advantage... anything less than a KO is a disappointment and shameful.
Huge advantage?? wtf are you smoking? pac aint little.
Cotto comin' to break something......a rib a nose or something!!....Cotto BETTER stop this lil dude.......I got REAL money on him!!:boxing:
Cotto must not rush things too quickly or he might risk losing steam early in the fight. He can't try to go for the knock out unless he gets Manny hurt. but at the same time if he doesn't K.O Pacquiao he loses. He must not underestimate Power or he'll end up being the one knocked out.
Been bigger will not win this fight for Cotto, Pac himself is big and isnt the small guy everyone is trying to pass him off has, He has the speed that imo would bother Cotto and he also has this fight at 145 just for good measure.
shiit dawg...ive heard this 3 times in a row now from nobody Diaz, to drained grannyweight Hoya, to mentally retarded just coz of 1 fight Hatton.
bigger, stronger, fatter, balder,
old, excuses, damn motherfcker.
i hope cotto does though...i hope he really does use the "bigger, stronger" thing you guys are talkin about.
Well that's the problem Cotto is not a Mentally retarted Drained grannyweight nobody, but he is Bigger, stronger, and balder oh yea forgot to mention his superior timing.
there is shame and disgrace if you don't KO pac if you're bigger than pac by 10+ lbs.
agree, cotto is bigger, and stronger. he should use it early on the fight to pressure pac. if it goes the distance, pac will win
interesting comment. why? is it because Manny showed up to c Cotto's fight at MSG and picked a fight. did he win the anti cotto fans in new york?
just curious.
There is too much for Top rank to lose if Pacquiao loses this fight, I could see Cotto getting robbed in MSG if Arum/Top rank would have there way.
fighters dont choose to win by decision. it just happens. there is no disappointment in beating pacman

Am not a cotto stan but if this fight goes the ful 12-rounds in MSG on Puerto rican day Pacquiao is getting the decision whether he deserves it or not.
