Pacquiao Will Knock Cotto Out in Six, Says Beristain

[UnifiedD]

1st of all R.I.P to the smooth criminal MJ......

Miguel used to have this ora of non-destructable force about his technique, i remember days when he fought likes of Carlos Quintana, he was getting tagged at times...but it felt/looked as though it had no affect on MC's offence.....cotto is not the same any more, who ever thinks cotto is the same old fighter is in denial......i used to watch every single fight of him, have him posterd on my wall, got t-shirts of him.....sometimes watch his fights five times over in the same day.......but i'm not in denial, it's time to face the facts and acknowledge the we see cotto fans, i don't think cotto's decline began after the margerito fight although this did contribute to his issues......when cotto fought shane mosley he changed his style...maybe somthing happend...i don't know...but he is not the same fighter.

I agree with you 100% on Cotto. Anyway I hope the fight lasts longer than 6 rounds. If Cotto is not cut early then the fight may go up to 8 or 10 and then a KO for either fighter.

This fight is going to destroy one of these fighters. Look at it this way: Cotto wins and everyone will say Pac's win over Oscar was due to Oscar being old and drained. If Pac wins then Cotto has been overrated all along. I think Cotto should do everything to make sure he wins this fight cause if he don't he'll be making peanuts in his next 2 fights. If Pac loses then it'll be like he's a superlight weight so he was supposed to lose

i agree with what he said about cotto not bein the same. i dont know if its the trainer switch or he has just lost some of his confidence. the ora is gone off him now. people used to think he was this "destroyer" but not anymore.

Bull****! cotto is one tough mothafcka! if this fight goes 6 pac has a chance! no way lil pac stops cotto in 6! pacs too small to have that kind of power!

[WESS]

haha that was funny. Dudes just looking for a job. Cotto was punch for punch against Mosley (who IMO is faster and more powerful than Pac). Cotto will be fine its Pac that I would be worried about.

Like I have said many times over before. Mayweather, COTTO and Mosley will all beat Pac. People are disillusioned on how Pac beat one WAY overly hyped guy and a zombiefied half dead other guy.

Credit to Pac but if These top WW's come out to play at 100% he wont win. All the names above HAVE and CAN handle speed. Cotto might have problems but STOPPED before 6? haha OK.

One of the best trainers in the sport, Ignacio "Nacho" Beristain, said Manny Pacquiao will stop Miguel Cotto within six rounds. The Cotto-Pacquiao bout is being lined up for November 14 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, with the catch-weight of 145-pounds being likely. Beristain trained Juan Manuel Marquez for both bouts with Pacquiao, and trained Oscar De La Hoya for last year's career-ending loss to Pacquiao. [details]

Of course, If Nacho is not training Cotto and Oscar wasn't competitive one second of the fight, yeah, Cotto gets KOd in less than 6.

You know i remember watching the clotty fight, with my cotto T-shirt on...and the whole cotto-fan gear on, only thing missing was a PR flag..lol......as a devoted fan i relised, i slowly put my hand on my chin and switched away from the fight mentaly around midway...asking my self...is this the same guy, that i dreamed would give PBF hell or even KO him?, was this the same fighter I watched breezing past the 140lb division? getting knocked down by Torres, and getting up shaking his head, and coming forward with that "bring it/pitball" attitude after being knocked down?.....then i would stop day dreaming and come back to the clotty fight and watch one of my idols, being backed up to the ropes..and instead of the old cotto "fighting his way out", he runs out using his new found "slick footwork"....clearly not his trademark way of fighting, clearly not the same cotto that got hurt by zab and still systematiclly broke him down pittball-style with his mouth bleeding non-stop. People say he was cut against clotty? i say cut? Migual that i remember didn't know what that meant. remember the way you felt sorry for the fighters...laying there Victoriano Sosa, Carlos Quintana etc trieng to breath though there gumshields after devestating body blows......but against clotty what saddend me was that commentators now felt sorry for him emmanual steward for example..... and i always used to fell sorry for his opponents....after they get KO'ed....here is a fact if the clotty fight was 15 rounds..cotto would have gave up and took a knee, it's always easier doing somthing 2nd time

[PACsiwon]

huh

beristain knows what happen if pacquiao-cotto comes in fight night because he really admit that manny is the best boxer among the rest....

[csko-2k1]

Remember that Cotto suffered a cut in the third round,,,and thats when Cotto starts to fight,but how much can you do with a gash that big.Of course you will be fighting at a distance...it's like when he fought margo,he was bust up in seventh and so he was here in rd.3..He fought in pain yet still won...Cotto will beat Pacquiao.BY K.O.in 9th round....
