    Nobody wants to see Manny/Cotto. Maybe if it was pre-Amigorito, then yeah. But nobody wants to see Manny fight Cotto after Amigorito beat his ass to a pulp.
    One thing's for sure the plaster in Margs gloves did more damage to Cotto than any of Mannys punches will ever do. But don't forget that it wasn't that long ago when the light punching Corley had Cotto out on his feet from a right hook and Pac might have the best right hook in the game right now.

            BTW Cotto vs Pac will be a big fight.. A lot of people will be talking about it, and people will pay for that as well.. manny may get KTFO but if he falls he will fall in flames..

            Damn no matter what this fall is shaping up to be great!
            the problem is that if manny loses it takes EVERYTHING off of the idea of two number 1 p4p fighters fighting each other. cotto beating pacman means very little, mostly because pac is on a different level than cotto, if pacman gets KTFO it takes the luster completely off of a fight EVERYONE wants to see, nobody wants to see this **** between cotto and pac.

                Well in fairness to Cotto there's a good chance that Margs cheated to beat him (remember the whole illegal wraps thing) and because Cotto like it or not beat Mosley it's very probable that if Margs was DQ'ed after the Cotto "win" that Miguel would be seen as the best ww and everyone would be saying Manny-Cotto is a fight that should be made. It's funny how a little plaster changes people's perspective.

                  It's a dumb move, but if you think takin Cotto over Mr boat buyer is a duck, you're kiddin yourself homey.

                    Dodging Mayweather... ... ...

                    I could sit here and stare at that phrase all day and still not believe it.

                    I mean, I guess I am seeing where people are coming from what with Paquiao having signed the contract to fight Cotto instead of Maywea...wait...that didnt happen. But then again Paquiao has dodged a bunch of really great fighters such as...um...uh...gimmie a sec...there was that one time...no that was Mayweather...and then that time with...no that was Mayweather too....

                    Are you guys ****ing serious?! You are going to bust PAQUIAOU'S chops because his camp is suggesting not fighting mayweather immediatly?! Mayweather came out of retirement and is fighting a natural 130lb fighter at the end of his career! Mayweather is a natural welterweight..the deepest weight division in boxing and he is fighting a LIGHTWEIGHT.

                    I am gonna stop here though as I don't want to get beat up, and judging by the punch drunk logic in this thread, theres a lot of retired boxers in here.

                      Can't find the clip, but if Corley was a better finisher, Pretty Girl would've been outta there. As for Jermain, he got Judah'd again. Lol at Cotto over Mayweather being a duck, and as far as I know, Floyd's set to fight some 36 yo lightweight next and Pac just got done kicking a$$.
