It seems strange for Cotto backers to draw confidence from the way Zab Judah would potentially match up with Pacquiao. Personally, I feel that Pacquiao will pose many of the same problems for Cotto that Judah did early in their fight, using speed and angles from a left handed stance.
Cotto is a badly damaged fighter at this point in his career, and while that was clearly evident to me from his performance against Joshua Clottey, too many seem willing to continute giving him the benefit of the doubt. While he may have dealt with Margarito in a plaster wraps free fight, there can be no doubt that he was punished inalterably on that night. The difference in Pacman-Cotto for me is Manny's ability to avoid punches, and Cotto's inability to do so. Pacquiao will show respect for Miguel's power, but his swift feet and hands will be too much for Cotto to handle.
