Pacquiao Will Knock Cotto Out in Six, Says Beristain

[fcastro1]

this fight is prob 50/50 but i just dont think cotto can keep up with pac. you cant hit whats not there. cottos punches can be telegraphed. look how quick pac was slipping hattons punches followed by his own. pac has raised his game and your about to witness it again.

[buckdacious]

you must of forgot that a morales beat him and that marquez gave him hell ,a paper champion diaz that lasted 9rnds and you think cotto doest stand a chance or ko pac your on crack. pac is still the same fighter since marquez and iam not conviced he has improve not one bit. if you call learning fundementals improvement so be it but it really shows his intellegence as fighter doest it if he still doest know the fundmentals.speed and footwork is all that pac has. when that roach game plan doest work pac is gonna be lost in the sauce. at the end of the day pac is a brawler

How can you not say pacquiao hasnt got better? its clear NOW hes a 2 handed fighter. moves his head alot more, I dont get what your saying.

the problem is that you cant judge cotto just seeing him vs clottey. nobody looks good against him. pac is not as big as Margacheato, SSM or Clottey. he is fast and has a good punch but his chin is overrated and he comes at you wide open so if cotto take this fight seriosly and his corner is improved he can def win. so for nacho to say he'll be koed within 6 is just hate bro.shiet an old washed up,dehydrated de lahoya lasted 8 what makes him think that cotto wont last 6

its not just base off the Clottey fight its with the other bum that he fought to Cotto lost something he is not the same fighter he was befor .i dont agree with Beristain saying Pac will ko Cotto in 6 rounds. so now if somebody doesnt agree with you they are a hater or in this case Beristain because he is mexican means its his job to hate on PR what ever man

I'm a Cotto fan and i do not hate pacman. I think he is a very good fighter who went up the weight classes and took advantage of his skills against good/decent fighters but if i put cotto against hopkins or the heavyweight champ it's just a different fight or even putting cotto against a middleweight it's just not fair. Pacman is fighting a true welterweight, a welterweight who has fought the top welterweights in his division. A welterweight that is not the oscar/hatton that fought pacman. Is pacman fast? hell yea but there are probably featherweights who are faster that both pacman and cotto but i would not put these featherweights in with pacman or cotto. Does anyone understand what i'm trying to say? Pacman is very good against marquez, diaz, barrera, morales, hatton(lightweight) and a very slow oscar(statue).

If he beats cotto even by slight decision i would say it's one of the biggest things in boxing. I respect pacman as a very good boxer.

I agree with you to a certain extent. I think that this fight will definetly be the hardest fight for PACQUIAO. At the same time, his speed and southpaw style and in and out movement is plenty enough to frustrate Cotto. Now me being a filipino is gonna say biased statement, but I just feel that PACQUIAO is on top of his game right now until proven otherwise. I respect Cotto as a fighter and all his accomplishments, but I just have the gut feeling that PACQUIAO will prevail. Cotto better be in the greatest shape of his life, cause when it goes in deep waters, we all know that PACQUIAO is going to keep throwing at the same volume, at the same speed, at the same velocity, and at the same POWER. Like Emmanuel Stewart said, PACQUIAO is going to keep coming at you all 12 rds unlike other fighters. Pacquiao is not gonna take breaks like Clottey did. The only way i see PACQUIAO losing, is if Cotto get in the greatest shape in his life to go all 12 rds.

i'm not saying he's not going to get knocked down. but you were talking all the **** in the world. cotto is a beast and that's recognized but when fans like yourself hate on another great fighter. your making yourself look like an *******. his abilities have shown for themselves.

as far as roach's game plans, well when that happens then he'll have to think on his feet. and then you can make your assumption mean anything other than an assumption. until then stfu

dude iam not a cotto fan or a pac fan or a floyd fan or any other fighter fan iam just a boxing fan. iam not hating on pac iam not like you that is brain wash and refuse to see his weakness and pac has many so does cotto. so when you get the nuts out your mouth you will see clearly my friend and no dip **** iam not saying that pac cant win because it is boxing afther all anything can happen.

i disagree, pac is not a brawler. he is a boxer/puncher. you need glasses if you cant see the improvement in his game. his punch selection has improved, footwork (balance) right jab and hook, slipping puches better, he has improved. he cant just be a brawler, a former flyweighht champ beating welterweights. you need skills to achieve that.

[buckdacious]

I would say Nacho is a hater but hes very true. Cotto is defense is to leaky to even hang with Pacquiao.

[K U Y I P]

pac's never been challenged in his last 3 fights. against cotto in the opposite corner, it will be a war if pac can take cotto's punches.

[southcalihds]

Pac definately was a brawler/swarmer for years but he has proven to be much more versatile in recent years. Not sure if he can be considered a pure boxer/puncher more like a hybrid as he boxes from the outside but still brawls when he does get pulled in.
