If Manny caught Cotto with a clean shot at 144...

[savorduhflavor]

I don't think you can beat Pacquiao without a good right hand and as another thread starter brought up, these converted orthodox fighters haven't had much success of recently against Pacquiao.

Cotto's left jab would be the most important punch for him but even still, he's going to be susceptible to the right hook and ultimately, the left. I think he's a much more intelligent fighter than Hatton but he's going to have a hard time landing the left hook without a solid right cross to dissuade Pacquiao from moving laterally.

You are seriously underrating Cotto's right cross.

Cotto's right hand is much better than Manny's.

Good night Cotto at 144..

Another punch like the one that he gave Hatton means game over for not only Cotto, but mostly anyone.

If Pac hits Cotto flush, I think Cotto wobbles and legs give out instantly, I dont think Cotto drops as quick as Hatton did though. You guys got to remember Hattons lifestyle outside of the ring wasnt a healthy one. Ballooning up in between fights then coming down, that aint healthy which made Hatton even more vulnerable to getting hurt with solid shots. Pac can rock Cotto but I dont think a one punch would drop Cotto, accumulation yes.

I agree with your point. Cotto is not Hatton by any means. Those that think Cotto will be flattened by one punch are ridiculous. Because Cotto has been in so many wars it will help him in this fight. He knows how to recover from getting rocked, the only time this didn't happen was when he was brick fisted and even then he took it like a man for 11 rounds.

Weight aint a ****in issue. Manny makes Quitto tap regardless of weight. Quitto quits again....

[Piggu]

haha Yeah, no ****.

Much better than Manny's what? Right hook..... Manny throws a left cross since he fights from a southpaw position.

[sweetpea87]

He took alot of punishment from the plastered Margarito before he fell, so he could take them for a while but if hit with enough they would catch up

[BOOMbip]

Well I think thats the wrong decision for him to make...

I understand it from a financial point of view.

I don't have to agree with everything Miguel Cotto says or does just cause he's my favorite boxer...That kind of blind admiration kind be found in many places but never with me.

Anyway like I said ... Manny Pacquaio wants to fight WW cool the division has a weight...it's 147.

If your to small to **** with the big boys at 147 thats cool.

like my man Champ says..... there is a whole division full of small WW its called the Jr WW division.

This guy is good.
