    Judah and Mosley are both fast of hand. It's not like Cotto has been fighting guys with average speed his entire career. Even Paul Malignaggi and Ricardo Torres had quick hands.

    The foot speed will be a problem. Manny has gotten better and better at moving in and out of range with multiple punches. If that discourages Cotto from throwing he will have a ton of problems.

I couldnt beleive how slow he looked. His body work was subpar. I think he needs to hook up with his uncle or get a top notch trainer. That and a new cut man.

      I hope he gets it together and fights Pac this fall.
      The cut affected him greatly in my opinion. Clottey is an underrated fast puncher and that's why Cotto looked slower compared to him. He did superb in the first round, could that cut not have happened, Cotto may have looked tons better in the whole fight.

      Pac is a beast at the lower weight classes, but I think he's a carried a bit too much in the WW division..

        Pacquiao has backed it up. I fail to see the overrating?

                Pacman has trouble with counter punchers, cotto's a great counter puncher himself and has alot of power. If Pacman can't handle Cotto's power then it will be a short night.

                  The arm lenght of cotto will be factor in this fight, if he wants he can jab all night long little many, and win a boring fight Winki Wright style. If he maintain many away mani cant do **** with those little arms. So if i be Cotto i will be putting that stiff jab all night long in manny face and win the fight in a boring fashion with one hand

                    I love how everybody thinks Cotto is easy to hit. Clottey wasnt landing ****, tull he headbutted Cotto. Without one eye ofcourse you are going to get hi. I mean you dont see from that side.


                    Cotto will KTFO Manny , this **** wont go even 8 rounds and I willing to bet on it!!!!!!!

                      Same here, they say his defense is poor, but in my opinion his offense is his defense. He has great movement that gets him out of punches thrown towards him and comes pack with some great counters.
