      If anything, it raises his esteem, because he showed that he can give guys new looks.

        You know, Cotto and Pacquiao being 2 of my favorite fighters, it was tough watching both of their performances. Manny acting more of a boxer/counter puncher in his Barrera bout, and Cotto more boxing intentive. While both won although Manny more convincingly, it was hard to swallow at times. Both guys are known for in your face brawling but I guess it's good to switch it up from time to time. It's always good to add new dimensions to your game and not have your future opponent knowing exactly how your going to come at him. I'm sure we'll get to see both of them return to their original styles in the future depending on their opponent. I just hope they do because that's what made them both exciting.

          That was an especially excititing fight so my answer is hell no. He beat the great shane mosley and took all of mosleys hard shots. How many can say they didnt get knocked out when they traded with mosley, let alone win. IF it was shane mosley, cotto would of got another KO win. The guy is amazing. 8 rounds to 4 for Cotto. 7 rounds to 4 with 1 even the first time I watched it for cotto as well.

            people seem to think that most "brawlers" (pacquiao cotto margarito) are one dimensional and only go forward because they cant box but thats not the case never count out a fighter just cause u think he doesnt have boxing skills
