Pacquiao Orders Arum To Make Cotto Bout, Nov. 14

[shadeyfizzle]

cotto is not the same cotto period,he isnt fighting the same i know cotto very well been watching cotto a long long time ,williams is the best welter then mosley then clottey then cotto but for technical and emotional reasons he was given the dec sat, i would give pac zero chance against cotto pre -marg now its the opposite cotto will lose to pac, most likley by ko.not a step up not a challenge not anymore.

If you feel that way fine. But Cotto was lookin like the Cotto of old up until the 3rd round when that butt occured. How you can feel Clottey is better than Cotto when you agree with the decision victory is odd. It was a close fight but other than the shenanigans with the headbutts and bodyslams i wouldnt have had any complaints if the decision had gone either way.

I would've agreed that Williams is the best welterweight but he just fought his last fight 2 divisions higher. And like I keep saying. Mosley has 1 awesome victory over Margarito but got stretched by and was losing on the cards until the very last second of the fight by Mayorga who wasnt even a top 10 welter.

about the only legit win would be mab i will concede that. he beat those guys fair and square but to say they were at their prime when he did is just bull.

i would say prime barrera at 126, drew and won against prime JMM at 126 and 130, and little past prime morales... not bad if you come to think of it...

the weight is actually is not an excuse, its a fact...you guys disagree on mosley going south of 147 but want pac to blow up to 147 in a flick of a finger to fight the best WW outthere? cotto is a very live opponent still and if mosley and pac fight after that, it will be bigger than ever... cotto-pac posts a challenge because of weight... this is boxing, its a fact...

Well, these Pac haters thinks that Manny is Superman himself! LMAO

Arum knows neither of these guys have the capability of beating Shane Mosley so he's going to milk this fight for what it's worth for Cotto's WBOgus strap, but I aint buying it.

Before the Clottey fight i had this fight as a tossup but now i think Pac takes this. My reason is that i think the fact that Cotto has been in 2 wars in his last 3 fights and taking this fight so soon without having a lot of time to heal up will hurt him and i think Pac could even batter him. I want to see this fight because it will be exciting and great for the sport but i would not be mad at Cotto if he waited till next year to fight Pac and maybe fight some other WW like Berto or Cintron

What are you talking about, one of these guys already beat him (Cotto).

Guys. Don't be fooled by Arum's comments. The reason Pacquaio wants the Cotto fight is he saw the same thing I saw in the Clottey fight. Cotto is not that strong and doesn't pack as big of a punch as advertised. Plus, he can be hit very easily. Pacquaio knows he can win that fight easily, especially if it is fought at a catchweight.

Pacquiao made a big mistake if this is true. Hes gonna get laid out, and i will see this live.

I don't care to be honest. That **** don't matter to me because the victory was some weak sauce. Does anyone think Cotto is going down in the history books as a greater fighter than Shane Mosley. I sure don't. And Cotto didn't even beat the past prime version as convincingly as Vernon Forrest did. Mosley holds the crushing victory over Margarito as well as Cotto's old WBA strap. And Cotto holds Paul Williams' WBO strap by default.
