I just saw the 24/7 episode from last night, I saw Cotto ready and prepare. No love handles, focused and dedicated. I think this is going to be an awsome fight. Pac also looks great, but the issues in the camp continue. Will that be an issue fight night? I think Pac has a challenge ahead and so many distractions can not be good. I hope both fighters come in at the best possible, so that we can see a great fight.:boxing:
Dont believe the hype... Cotto will "spank" Pacquiao. Pac may put up a fight but I cannot see Cotto NOT winning this fight. I dont have many points but im down to bet it all....
Your point is valid, but I've been checking the betting lines for the fight as soon as I could find them online which was like no more than 2 months ago. Even then Pac was coming in at -200. Whatever, he's the betting favorite rightfully so.
Oh yea, I was surprised too I live in Vegas and Paq opened a 2-1 favorite which totally threw me off guard. I figured Vegas wouldn't fall into the pac hype and that Cotto's last two fights were against the two biggest WW in the division right now.
You got it right man, people here just think about pacquiao's 2 fights as an overrated win but they don't analyze pacman's skill. I don't know if they are just playing dumb if you don't see the difference in hand and foot speed plus the skill, the only advantage cotto has is his physical strength which is not enough in this fight. That's why i stand to my prediction this will look like an easy fight for the pacman again i already bet $200 on this fight.
where does a fourteen y/o like yourself get 200$? you hustle?
Oh man... not this again. Give it a rest. Was Hatton overrated a couple of months before when he was toying with Malignaggi? NO! Everyone was saying how great he looked. Was Oscar supposed to KO Manny with ease, possibly in the very first round? YES! Now people change their ****ing tune and it pisses me off.
Fighting Oscar = HUGE MONEY.
Fighting Hatton = HUGE MONEY.
Those were perfect business moves. Without those fights, he simply wouldn't be in the position he's in right now. He wouldn't be on American TV chat shows, the cover of TIME magazine, and about to fight Miguel Cotto.
Why would ANYONE base their pick on Manny's last two fights? And why does anybody on here think everyone else is an idiot who only started watching boxing last year? Manny is a f*cking beast. He has been a beast for a long time. Recognize, people. Stop being DUMB. Back when he battered Barrera in 2003 I knew he was something else (cause I was a big Barrera fan and Manny blew me away, the little bastard). Since then, he has only gotten better, but I do NOT base my pick on his last two fights only, I base it on his entire body of work and his amazing fighting style, and anyone who knows a little bit about boxing will be doing the same.

Because there is a massive amount of people putting money on Pac because of how he looked in his last two fights, and how Cotto's looked in his last 2 major fights. Sadly, people don't take into account the opponent, at least casual fans, they just see how this guy and the other guy won. Pac is looking unstoppable, and Cotto looks like he's done as a fighter.

From reading the forum for the past few months it seems everyone is 50/50 as to who will win Nov. 14.
So how come all betting sites and Vegas too has it -260 for Pac and lol +200 for Cotto?
Do they know something we don't?

Nobody denies that Pac shouldn't have taken those fights, only a fool wouldn't. But you also can't deny that people's perception of Pacquiao completely flipped 180 with those 2 fights. If you asked people last year who'd win between Pac and Cotto I think it's safe to say the number of people who are picking Pac to win now wouldn't be so high.
Nobody is talking about the style match up more than people talking about Pac's speed and what he did to Oscar and Hatton.
DLH was done, part time fighter, and Hatton was never great more like overrated, especially after the gift he got against Collazo!

I can't pick Pac over Cotto in this fight based on Pac's last 2 fights. DLH was done, part time fighter, and Hatton was never great more like overrated, especially after the gift he got against Collazo! Cotto on the other hand, we will never know what really happened against Margacheato and if his gloves were loaded then I say, wholly shit can Cotto take a shot! He took them for 11 rounds, I doubt Pac would of took those shots for that long! Against Clottey, I was at that fight and the cut was pretty nasty, and for Cotto to last to the end and win, yes I had him by 1 point 114-113, that says a lot about Cotto. Nobody looks good against Clottey, he's a tough SOB. Without the cut I say Cotto had a good chance of being the first to stop Clottey. I got Cotto by stoppage over Pacman before 7 rounds!
