7 Reasons Why Pacquiao Wins the Cotto Fight

[PACBOY]

it is different Chil...

no doubt shane and zab are fast but one glaring difference is they're more economical wit their punches


its easier to time those fighters when they're throwin 1,2, maybe 3 punches at a time but when the volume increases (as with the case in fightin manny), it makes it a taaaad bit more difficult

very true.....MAk !! You cant hit what you cant see. And you cant see when a barrage of punches to face and body

I remember posting up something similar to this post on houseofboxing .com awhile back before Tito fought hopkins; point is that I couldn't see how Bernard was going to be able to handle Tito at all. Come fight night Bernard showed me what a world class fighter he was and all my posts didn't matter cause at the end of the fight Tito couldn't compete. You can have a post on how great Manny is and all his weapons in his repertoire but come fight night its a whole different story.

A good post. However all those things dont always come into account. If Cotto can boss the fight with his strength and get him where he wants he could hurt Manny. Not all attributes always come into play, the power Cotto generates would have Manny in big trouble if he was to be cornerd in the ring by Cotto which is what he would do!

both guys have respect for ea other but i believe pac will be more aware fighting on the inside. he knows cotto can ko with the 1-2

one thing ppl forget is that the way you KILL speed is with great timing & thats what Cotto has.

People need to dead this "timing kills speed" bull****. You guys only picked up on it since Mayweather Sr. said it on 24-7. I never saw this being said on here before Floyd Sr. said it.

Come on guys, don't be acting like a bunch of parrots who can't think for themselves.

You cannot time what you can't see coming. Especially when the fighter you are trying to time has such a syncopated rhythm. Pacquiao does not have a normal, predictable rhythm. Being a drummer, I can see this very clearly. It's the same with Joe Calzaghe. His unpredictability and offbeat rhythm (this is why some compare his style to freeform jazz) were some of the reasons why he kept on winning. Pacquiao is similar in several ways to Calzaghe. Both southpaw, and both syncopated as ****. It's hard to beat such a style.

The opposite of these guys is someone like Hatton who has a regular rhythm and fights at one consistent pace. It's the boxing equivalent of a boring 4/4 timing -- you know exactly when and where the beats will fall, every time.

i can sorta understand his point but i dont necessarily agree D....although you can make the comparisons between tito and manny, im not so sure that you can compare miguel's skillset, or anyone for that matter, to that of hopkins


Nard had an old school, ring savvy that miguel doesnt have....he pulled every trick in the book in workin tito over....im not sure if miguel has those tricks

samu... also you need to stop that "you cant hit what you cant see" bull**** cuz manny aint no ****ing ghost. he will be there and will be hit. morales hit him, jmm hit him even old dehydrated dela hoya hit him so what makes you think cotto cant hit him ????? did he develop some supernatural power???? this is boxing bro they both have 2 hands. no hard feelings bro

Cotto's the better fighter, Manny's close, but let's not forget the fact that Manny barely got there. Cotto since his 140lbs fights had it all and still does. Manny is going in for a rude awakening. Bring it on!
