[Luis12]

It will be an interesting fight as long as it happens at Miguels natural weight. Pack has shown he can fight at 147 as well.

Cotto's speed was not the case, his timing is what allowed him to outbox Mosley.

I do think people underestimate Cottos handspeed because his offense is so measured, but when he lets his hands go he's pretty damn fast.
I think people get distracted by the deliberate pace he fights in, but the guy is amazingly fast when he throws his combo's.

yeah make someone #1 p4p a year after he got KTFO.

smart.

Cuz loaded gloves count as getting ktfo, right? Oooh, oh, but it hasn't been proven. That's right, because every cheater gets caught the FIRST TIME HE CHEATS. I forgot about THAT unwritten rule.

His hand speed is good, he always had fairly fast hands though. As a prospect, he was able to display his speed easily.

Get off my nuts.

Like your Avatar, I doubt either of you have any NUTS!

harsh bro... KTFO by a potential cheater... Cotto Has been in the ring with some of the best and no one has ever told him he was ducking anyone... I think P4P should be graded as such tougher competion makes more sense then record... Klitch would be p4P... and his division is flooded with a bunch of bums and green up and commers!

How the *** can u be considered p4p #1 when you cant avoid the uppercut and cant fight a full 12rds without gassing! The guy has scaled two weight classes and barely wins when facing elite opposition. He is a good fighter but p4p #1? GTFOH! So you are saying he is p4p better than Chad, PW, JMM, or old man hop?

Case dismissed!

not really, pac officially weighed 142 lbs against dlh.

cotto has good handspeed, but it's not great.

its possible that margo has cheated before the mosley fight, but without evidence or a confession, there is no prove... its just speculation.

yep... cotto's case for #1 would be stronger if he didn't quit, gas, and could avoid the uppercut.
