    Try fighting 12 hard rounds against the elite fighters of the world. If you can do so than you can call it ****ty stamina.

    Cotto gets tired when his opponents put nonstop pressure on him and don't yield. Cotto didn't tire against guys like Judah, Malignaggi, Urkal, Bazan, who all took him to the late rounds. But larger fighters who keep pressuring him like Mosley, Margarito, and Clottey cause him to tire. Pacquiao doesn't fit into that group of people in my opinion. Cotto won't tire against Pacquiao.

    Not saying he beats Pacquiao, it will be a great fight I'm still not too sure who will win. But I don't believe stamina will be an issue for Cotto.

        Both guys should just handle business in their own divisions.

          At least you got almost 2 mill E-points, I lost everything in the Clottey fight. What i have now is courtesy of Larry and Makavelli. Man i can't ever complain about Makavelli, this is the sec time he helps me up off my ass on e-points. Larry too. And Samurai....

          I've only lost 2 bets...I won the Cintron over Angulo bet

          1-2-0

            Don't think so, not with everyone demanding Mayweather vs Pacquiao.

              Gato, I have Cotto winning in this fight. I believe his ring generalship will be the key. Cotto will or can cut off Pacquiao and pin him against the ropes where Pac has never been good at. I see a late TKO by Cotto or SD. I have many other factors that slide Cotto winning, but I'm going to keep it at that right now.

              It's going to be a very offensive fight though.

                Hatton > Pac
                Tarver Over Dawson (2nd fight)
                Clottey > Cotto (Not bad either, I had Clottey winning)
                Taylor > Froch (This wasn't so bad because Taylor was dominating before he got stopped)
                Juan Diaz > JMM
                Casamayor > JMM

                Not so good man, not so good.

                  that's the news in the philippines. kadyo told me.

                  that's why remember the article that kept saying pacquiao wants mayweather?

                  he really is running for office. hopefully he loses so he keeps on fighting. lol

                  remember money is nothing to manny.

                  $1 million here is P50 million there.

                  he's already a billionaire in philippines and money will never be a problem because he's like jordan over there. no matter he's retired the endorsements keep coming.

                    ah tu sabe mi apodo lol.

                    Yea I don't see Pacquiao being able to apply pressure like Margarito/Clottey and tiring Cotto out. Cotto deffinately is capable of winning this fight.

                      It doesn;t matter how many elite fighters you fight. When you have ****ty stamina, you have ****ty stamina. Margarito is not all that elite and his stamina is pretty good.

                      Mosley can be my grandfather but his stamina is like a 25 year old, look who was chasing who in the Cotto-Mosley fight. They were 10 years apart, but it looked like Cotto had 10 years on Mosley in the latter rounds.

                      Taylor is my current fave fighter, but i admit he has ****ty stamina and he can't do anything about it.

                      Cotto is only 28 and has been gassing out since his 140 days, the excuse was that he was weight drained..but what is the excuse on WW?

                      It's natural, fighters have it and others don't. No matter the age or the wars you have been in.

                      Last example, Winky is old as hell and he looked like he was just overwhelmed by Williams but the stamina was there to go 15 rounds. How many elites has Winky fought? Prime Vargas was a war, Mosley twice, the second one was a war. Quartey, Taylor, Hopkins, Williams. But has more stamina than 28 year old Cotto.
