Can Cotto handle Pacquiao's Power + Work rate?

[DonTaseMeBrah]

Did anybody notice cotto lunging with jabs, straights, & hooks vs clottey a fighter that isnt a mover. Whats gonna happen when he faces Pacquiao who is fleet of foot?

I voted 'Yes' but I think the outcome of this fight is weight dependent.

people are so ****** on this forum i will say it again clottey has very good defense. very few fighters can break through clotteys defense.cotto did a decent job on getting through clottey defense through out the fight. again for the million time pac is very hittable. i think this fight gave pac a false security that he will be able to run through cotto. weight will be a huge factor in this match up thats for sure.

Cotto = Hittable also.

Speed = Pacman
Power = Cotto (not by much)
Stamina = Pacman
Chin = Pacman

Pac will not just Cut and bruise cotto but he will Tear cotto into pieces...

Wouldn't doubt it but you can never count Cotto out... depends which Cotto shows up.

At first I was feeling that Cotto could hurt pac and take him out late, but now I'm starting to think that pac's footwork and speed will be able to hurt Cotto. Hmm, if Cotto doesn't get to Pac early, I think he gets taken out late.

i wonder why people already forget what happened against judah and mosley. it was a bad fight against clottey but it was more due to the cut. he didn't quit and kept fighting. the man showed heart and tried to give a good show.

now at 140 pac would eat cotto alive...at 147 it's another story. or people forget that pac hit DLH with everything and didn't hurt him. not even once.

^^odlh went to the hospital. did you see his face? didn't hurt him? he MADE HIM STOP at his stool. if he went into round 9. he would have been KTFO.
