Historians Pac Vs Cotto Predictions

This is a pick em fight and I wouldn't be surprised either way. They say in boxing you're only as good as your last fight so I think you'd have to favor Pacquiao by stoppage at some point in the fight, but I'm not sure how he'll handle Cotto's strength and punching power. I could definitely see Cotto winning this fight and I've been flip flopping on who I think will win but for now:

Pacquiao by TKO.

I'm gonna have to go with Pacquiao as well. I don't think Cotto will be able to deal with that kind of pressure and I can see him going down a few times as well. Pac by UD.

Cotto has the size, strength and timing to beat Pacquiao. Pacquiao's main advantage is speed. That speed can be broken by timing. Cotto did it in the Mosley fight and Mosley is a much tougher opponent than Pacquiao.

Pacquiao came off a great performance over Hatton and he looks unstoppable. But that was Hatton. He didn't knock out or even knock down DLH. I doubt he's gonna do that to Cotto.

Also, Pacquiao seems to be vulnerable for left hooks. Marquez wobbled Pacquiao in their second fight and I remember him landing some more good left hooks throughout the fight. Cotto's main punch is his left hook and I'm sure it's a lot more damaging than Marquez'.

Pacquiao has a good chin, though, so I don't think he's gonna get knocked out.

I'm picking Cotto by decision.

Pacquiao is an extremely fast southpaw, which spells trouble for any fighter.. I see him winning by TKO 10..

I dont see Pac being able to stop Cotto. (hope im wrong).

Cotto didnt get seriously hurt by SSM, and Margrito is a giant WW with plaster.
Pac may bust up Cotto, but not hurt him.

I cant see Pac going 12 rounds and not getting caught with big body shots on the ropes at some point.
Im not sure he can survive those kinds of shots. Cotto will go for the kill when the oppertunity arises.

I see Pac winning rounds but getting stopped. But i want Pac to win.

Blinding performance by the Pacman, all the signs were there from the Malignaggi fight..
