Does the Cotto who fought Zab and Mosley beat Today's Pacquiao?

i think cotto is the same cotto..he is just missing the swag he once had..i think if any thing margo took some of his confidence away

I sorta feel the same way, but I think Pacquiao can bring that type of fight out of Cotto being Pac doesn't posses the type of size to push Cotto for 12 rounds making Cotto rely on countering all night, but it still makes for a test of who picks his shots better.

hey larry but couldnt you say its also hard too look good with the level of fighters he has been fighting outside of jennings

cotto hits pac with some of the stuff he caught clottry with its gonna be the end of the fight
pac does not have a better chin than clottey or mosley

I think thats one of the biggest tests in the fight, whether Pac can take Cotto's punches. Cotto's been in with heavier punches by far so I think his chin will hold up, but Pac's speed also coincides with his power. One solid shot from Pac can def get Cotto on wobbly legs if he isn't careful.

thats true..but cotto just doesnt have that swage had at first..i liked it...cotto is better than he showed in the clottey fight..i know ive seen how good cotto can be..remember him slipping 5 punches in a row against margo???where was that in the clottey fight??its the small things he's stopped doing thats allowing him to get hit more...

[LA BAD BOY]

PACMAN will destroy COTTO.

Well keep in mind too that he was fighting with one eye for a good majority of the fight. Prior to that he was getting hit with little jabs from Clottey, but nothing serious.

If he fights the same against Pacquiao without any cuts or anything that'll be somewhat of a handicap, then I think it'll be easier for me to say that he's lost a step or 2.

Yep. Cotto is too ****in big for lil Pac. Pac ain't no WW.

you are right larry but i think the cut had something to do with that but in margo fight the 1st half atleast margo couldnt touch cotto he was dippin and makin margo look slower than he is.....i think he is being overlook this time by people and this is a fight he could win and help find the swag
