      If Cotto is the underdog even at 3-1, Ill drop $100 on Cotto.

        I'm 100% certain Cotto will open as the underdog and before the fight be a big underdog. Odds are determined by the public. As seen with the ridiculous odds for the Clottey fight, where he was nearly a 3-1 dog.

          exactly....

          i just thought about it.. and i like it..... cotto has never been in this situation.....

          the last time ... i remember him.. not being favored here in PR.. was with QUINTANA... because in PR everybody felt in love with quintana..... and due to cottos character well.. they were just looking for a big hit !!

          and i remember that cotto didnt say **** about it.. but im pretty sure he was motivated by that!!

                He could use every bit of motivation he can get. I hope he changes a few things too. He's going to need to be int he best shape of his life.

                Yeah I never understood it. You figure the line would move since the odds were so good on Clottey, but no one knew who he was.

                  Yeap First time in his career!!!!!

                  I get what some people say that he shouldnt be the nderdog. thats Understable.

                  But Pacquiao is teh cosensus P4P number 1 King of many divisions including 140, and the catchweight can be add to that.

                  So techniacally Cotto is the underdog!!!!!!!!!!!

                    yeah..

                    the sad thing is that i dont expect nothing new from cotto.... and he doesnt plans to bring anyone new to the corner.. hopefully that change b4 the fight!!!

                    with that being said..

                    i think that cotto has what it takes to beat pac.....

                    he can deal with everything that pac brings...

                    everything but the stamina...


                    of course manny speed is just amazing... but good timing.. will keep cotto good on that aspect...

                    but if we talk about stamina....

                    thats the only BIG advantage that cotto wont be able to match... it doesnt matter how or with who he trains..

                    manny's stamina >>>>> cotto's by a mile.....

                    if he can make something in order to increase his.. at least a lil bit.... that will help...

                    he can deal with everything that manny brings... im confident on that....

                    the stamina is gonna be the KEY to the victory.... for both camps!

                      Cotto should be the favorite. But I guess people are getting sick of betting against pac, i dunno.
