Against Hopkins in 2001.
Is it me or this 2 fights have way to many things in common going in to it? It seems Pacquiao like Trinidad is the hottest thing right now in boxing and Cotto like Hopkins get's no respect even when he is the bigger man.
hopkins was THE reigning MW champ that hadn't lost in years...cotto just barely squeeked by clottey and lost to margarito
cotto possesses neither bag of tricks nor ring savvy as hopkins
We will find out November 14th :boxing:
Cotto by KO within 6 rounds. To big to strong.
you're right...my badd for dissing Nard by comparing him to a PAC tuneup
You Pactards are so pathetic:peeright: I never seen a lower boxing IQ fan base than you guy EVER!

Who the **** is comparing the fighters you fruit cake?
Comparing similar situation! Get it in your head little fellow.
Roach isn't predicting a first round KO.
You are wrong Roach is still predicting a first round KO

it don't mean that cotto will win. the fate of the fight is not sealed. anyone can still win.
Difference is Hopkins wasnt ruined by plaster
Who is ruine by plaster? Ruined boxers don't beat elite fighters like Joshua Clottey with a huge cut.
I think you have no idea what a ruined boxer looks like.
He said it as a joke in the first place, which he has admitted. He's fooling around, trying to get into Cotto's head and he's being very open about it. He said he wants Cotto to hate his guts and to fight angry, that's why he said round 1.
So he is taking everything he said? You can't take away everything you say he still made the prediction just like Trinidad Sr did.
The sad ass media is messing up Freddy's quotes to confuse casual fans and people who dont take the time to ready enogh about boxing facts.
As for now Freddy prediction is round 9 KO. About the first round KO he actually said that he was playing around. However he said afterwards that they will bring the heat to Cotto early and that if Manny hurt him like other did early it would be over but by anymeaning is a prediction.
Im hating the media covering boxing this days for not being competent.
He changed it again?

I'm sure Manny himself doesn't buy into the rubbish being spouted by his trainer. He's the one who must do the fighting, and it's foolish for him to believe Cotto is easy pickings. I don't think Pac will dare to rush his attack expecting an instant KO. That said, the situation is similar to Trinidad-Hopkins, but the fights themselves are very different.
BTW just like Pacquiao and Roach are the fighter of the year and trainer of the year going in to their fight with Cotto, Trinidad and Trinidad Sr were the fighter of the year and trainer of the year going in to their fight with Hopkins.
