How the hell did pac walked thru this punch??

Pac was able to see nearly all of Cotto's shots coming which is a big factor.

that was a flush shot taken by Pacman.....He was definetly staggered by that shot and stopped his momentum

Good eye. Every time I've rewatched the fight, I always wonder why the announcers say "good left hook by Cotto!" at that moment, because I never saw it. But you can see it if you play it in slow motion. I guess it was such a quick, short hook by Cotto that it was hard to see. http://i45.tinypic.com/kbow95.gif Some good whiskers there on Pac. thats why its kinda hard to score a fight by watching it on video

3:09 phil ivey in the house wassuppp

Manny took some hard shots to the beard at different times of the vid. Cotto had lots of opportunities to let his hands go when he had Manny on the ropes a few times, but chose to hesitate and paid the price often.

ever seen pacquiao's stick training during training camp? that and having big sparring partners can condition your body to the extreme Good point. So the answer to the TS' original question is: Showtime Shawn! :boxing: :boxing:

watch the video again then get back to me pay close attention when cotto lands those left hooks on pac Oh now I see it in slow motion. Was a good left hook by Cotto, landed flush on Pacquiao's chin. I take back what I said. Pacquiao has quite the beard.

ive seen ricardo myorga walk through much more, from harder punchers. at the time Pacquao was knocking out Ledwabba at 122. Mayorga was knocking out Forrest at 147. Just saying.

ive seen ricardo myorga walk through much more, from harder punchers. Yeah, but Mayorga didn't start his career as a FLYWEIGHT.

You're right! hmm the HBO footage showed that much better. Well I take back what I said earlier then.. It was a decent clip on the chin Actually even on the HBO HD version it's hard to see at normal speed, it happens so fast. I've watched the fight like five times, and this is the first time I've seen that particular punch land. Slow motion FTW!

1:30 of the vid... My jaw dropped after manny didn't even flinch after that shot.. Good eye.

The left hook? Cotto threw it with his arm, didn't put his body into it. He's backing up too. You could pick a better one Pac walked through.

its crazy how this fight was no where near to being close.....

it was a fast , strong jab though. he probably just got hit on the sweet spot. It certainly was but could you imagine the Pacquiao of now being floored by a jab from a super bantamweight? I honestly don't think Cotto is that hard of a puncher. Look at what he did against Margarito (Cotto landed a LOT of punches) compared to how Mosley KO'd Margarito. Shane is a hard puncher, but he's no George Foreman, and he obviously did a lot more damage to Margs than Cotto. He can punch but I don't think he has ever been one to get a fighter out of there with one punch. If he is able to impose his will on the opponent and pile up body punishment then he can score a stoppage but not otherwise. He also doesn't always set his feet to punch when he is being backed up as pointed out by Left Hook Tua.

Don't you mean 2:40 or 6:20? He evidently possesses a very strong chin. Gone are the days when he was nearly KO'd by a jab from Hussein. it was a fast , strong jab though. he probably just got hit on the sweet spot.
