Pacquiao vs. Cotto in 09: Arum Would Attempt To Do It
Collapse
-
To the betting public, pac was favored, but to the hardcore fans or experts, he was the underdog leading up to the fight. I myself didn't think pac was gonna last against cotto like the rest of the so called experts saying he beat a weak champ in d.diaz, weight drain oscar, or a one dimensional hatton, but like many, i was proven wrong. It's funny how so many times in his career he has been the the huge underdog in big fights by these hardcore experts and when he shocks them and proves them wrong, they make up excuses.
I don't wanna shout out to the world that pac's a g.o.a.t for achieving the unthinkable just yet, because there are still a lot of critics out there who doubt that and aren't convinced he is that person. But like every great and successful person whose doing his thing, there will always be haters. I'm just glad is still active and is'nt retiring just yet. After mosley (i expect him to win), i don't see anyone out there for him to fight except mayweather, jmm, bradley (if he beats khan), ortiz, or martinez. And siComment

What they will say is....
Floyd Fan: Naw, Cotto lost because Pac weightdrained him. He put Cotto at a disadvantage because he didn't fight him at Cotto's weight.
Boxing Fan: Wait, you give Floyd credit for beating Marquez and Hatton, yet he made Marquez come up 2 divisions and Hatton one division, don't you?
Floyd Fan: Floyd called the shots, they signed the contract, they didn't have to sign the contract.
Boxing Fan: But Cotto signed the contract to and the agreed weight was 145, only 2 pounds below 147 where as Marquez had to go up 9 pounds to 144 (which Mayweather didn't even bother meeting) and Hatton came up 7 pounds from 140. Shouldnt what applies for Floyd also apply for Pacquiao?
Floyd Fan: Typical ******* always trying to change and cheat history. You guys are so racist against black fighters, you can't see the truth.

Wow...great thread bump. I remember losing most of my points on this fight...lol. I thought Cotto would win, but not by much, sd, or maybe even a lucky left hook would bring Pac down.
Pac being my 2nd favorite fighter, it was anguishing to watch my 2 fav fighters going at it, watching Pac incredibly humiliating Cotto, and i was soo butthurt by how Cotto responded to Pac's domination.
I posted my respects to Pac in the Pinoy lounge in a novel...lol.Comment
