Marquez is a far superior boxer to Cotto imo and i'm a fan of both fighters.
Why do you think Cotto gets layed out if he pressures Pacquiao, Thats his best chance to win.
If he tries to box, not only does he get outboxed by the quicker slicker Pacquiao but he doesn't use his natural size and power advantage.
Cotto is a far better pressure fighter than he is a boxer.

A better pressure fighter...... yes, a better boxer........ no chance.

You can't just base Marquez style as the only way to beat Pacquiao. This is why I know for a fact a lot of you are looking at this fight all wrong.
Cotto presents a lot of problems for Pacquiao from his jab, body work, power, deceptive Boxing skills, ring generalship, patience...the list goes on.
I guarantee you ask anyone prior to Pacquiao even beating Oscar if he would beat Cotto and about 90% of you would say "Hell No!". But all of a sudden, people are supposed to forget that Cotto is still 34-1 with wins over guys like Mosley, Judah, Clottey, Quintana in the span of 2 1/2 years? Did he get there by simply being a C level fighter? SMH...
Forget about Marquez, Pacquiao's dealing with a whole other beast come Nov 14th.

If Cotto can get his jab going and is able to get to Pacquiao's body, i see it being a painful night for Pacquiao.

Cotto has better footwork is a bit more slippery than JMM you ca say he's more agile than Marquez. Less vulnerable to cuts.
JMM is very basic but extremely intelligent, perhaps the best couter puncher in his era, he adapts to whatever you bring, has power in both hands... also this guy's heart is underrated, he has wayy more heart than Cotto, just when you think he's down and out, he comes back and outboxes you round after round. Marquez's downside is that he cuts easily, and he gets hit alot nowadays
