Bigger Advantage Pacquiao's Speed or Cotto's Power/Weight

[Da Hammer]

Okay so everyone has said their piece about "Oh Cotto is too big for Pac" or "Pac is too fast he can make it interesting against any WW". So lets poll this what's the bigger advantage? Maybe its just because he was fighting Clottey who tends to stand still at times but Cotto looked like he has slowed down a little bit. The fact that Cotto has been in a war 2 out of his last 3 fights could be a key reason for this. And those wars also makes this an even more difficult fight for him against Manny if they fight in October because his body will be weakened fighting so soon and it could become target practice for Manny if Cotto doesnt score a KO in the first 6 rounds. Manny's speed would become too much late in the fight for a weakened Cotto. I would even pick Pac by late TKO contrary to what i believed before the Clottey fight that Cotto would win by late KO or decision. Pac will tag him constantly with in/out combos.

So lets have it bigger advantage is??? Do you agree with me that Pac's speed would be a bigger advantage or is it still Cotto's weight advantage??This is assuming they fight at a 145 catchweight which is the lowest Cotto has said he would drop in weight.

Early on it will be Pacs speed. If the fight goes into the late rnds Cottos size/power will play a big role.

Funny i think the opposite because of the wars that Cotto has been in the last year. I think Cotto's body would wear down the longer this fight goes while i dont see Pac slowing down. I thought the same as you though before the Clottey fight!

Yea the Clottey fight didn't change my mind because I think Clottey is a tough pressure type of fighter that all the welters would have issues with. No shame in struggling against a guy like that. I'm just interested to see what happens as the fight goes on when Pac gets hit hard and consistently. I think the shots from a bigger guy can be the difference in this fight,

Like my boy Mak said...Speed kills and Thats gonna be the difference in this fight..

Without a doubt the speed. Manny's gonna hit from all kinds of angles before Cotto has any idea where to defend from. I think the biggest issue are the way Cotto leaves himself open for counters where Pacquiao will fully take advantage of. He saw that on the night and it's the reason he's taking it. Possibly another easy paycheck? All depends how Cotto comes in on the night of the fight but I really doubt the size will help Cotto. Pacquiao sure as hell don't give a ***.
