DId you ever think for a moment that this guy would ever become the pound for pound king? its amazing what this guy has done. But honestly i think he hasnt fought a real welterweight in his prime yet. Cotto will be his first real test.

he hasnt fought a real & prime welterweight yet bcoz he is not a friggin welterweight...

Beatin MAB put him on the p4p list. I could picture him potentially gettin higher at the time, but not necessarily reachin the level he has. If he can take Cotto's power or avoid it all nite, he got this fight. I don't think he can tho.

I totally agree. Both fighters have the tools to take out the other, this fight is going to be down to who makes the first/most mistakes.

I'm putting faith in my boy Pac as I think this will be a fight of intangibles (Heart, will, luck)

i thought he was a fluke....i thought he got lucky vs mab1...he made me a believer just after the first jmm fight......pac vs cotto is 50/50....

i thought he's gonna ko'd again because hes careless..but after first morales fight he's change..still little bit careless but with more precision..

After the barrera fight, i was like damn this kid jus laid the smack' it down on his ass, then the marquez 1 fight made me think he had the real pontential of becomin good if not great, the the 1st morales fight is when i start'd to follow him more closely cuz they guy comes to fight.
