Will Manny vs Cotto spark the P.R. vs P.I. Rivalry???

[El Chicano]

I hope this doesnt spark any Rivarly..




Me being half Pinoy... I'm a cotto and juanma fan... I got much respect for the PR..

I'd like to say that the atmosphere at the fight will be crazy, but if the fight is in Vegas, the arena will be filled with Manny fans. He seems to be the new Oscar when he comes to Vegas.

How can there be a rivalry when a Pinoy has never won against a Puerto Rican in a title bout.

Seems silly.


More like Ownage then Rivalry.

It should be P.R. vs. R.P. (Republic of the Philippines).

It's in every boxing fan's interest to create rivalries between countries. Philippines vs. Puerto Rico vs. Mexico should be the next great rivalry.

In terms of producing top fighters it's still Mexico > P.R. > R.P.

Wrong.

It's more like Puerto Rico>Mexico>Pino.

The word "rival" can't be thrown around loosely.

To have a "Rivalry" you have to have fought many times and the last time I checked Puerto Rico already has beaten every Pilipino fighter they have fought. So check back after a couple wins and then we can talk!

Excuse me, but PAC p4p is better than Trinidad, this is coming from a long-time Felix fan.

In a head-to-head matchup, Tito wins, simply due to the size advantage.

If both fighters were the same size, I'd pick PAC. Felix's biggest weakness was dealing with speed and PAC has plenty of it. Tito also had problems with fighters that can punch on the move, again, PAC is a nightmare for the slow-footed Trinidad.

We all know Felix has hit the canvas numerous times(but have gotten up only to take the opponent out) throughout his career. I wonder how many times he'll hit the deck against PAC, it's not a question of will he, but how many.

Felix's upside is that he's every bit the ko puncher that PAC is. Tito is also one of the most accurate puncher I've seen, and PAC tends to get sloppy. Tito has every combo in the book, name any situation, Felix would've had an answer for it. Tito was smooth, smooth, smooth.

As far as the history between RP vs PR matchups in the past. No doubt, PR takes it. But, it's usually the Pinoy fighters having moved up so many weights already that their past their best weight division.
