Cotto's strength and boxing skills will win this fight for him. He's stronger than Pacquiao, and it's not like he can't box or anything.
one major flaw that will hurt pacman with cotto

The problem I have is everyone is hyping up manny because he beat hatton (never really top notch but some cred given)
Oscar(no credit) everyone knows that was not the oscar we are use to seeing
lets be real
and
Diaz who hasnt done anything since
this is going to be a real test for Pac cause Cotto is more prime. I would figure Cotto would be the favorite in this fight.
Cotto has fought a younger SSM, margs, and clottey
I know styles make fights but it really bothers me how most people are really looking past Cotto and setting up a pac and Floyd fight.Comment

cosignI wouldn't say Manny doesn't know how to fight on the inside. A fighter of his level and experience can do it, I just think it suits him better to fight from the outside.
He won't attempt to fight Cotto on the inside, **** he didn't even do that with Marquez but don't think he can't stay on the outside on Cotto. Pac has the stamina to stay outside all night if need be and the speed to keep Cotto there.

I can't think of any WW wouldn't have killed Ricky the way he was falling-in with his hands down like a ruined bum.Power is about timing and accuracy though. I seriously doubt too many, if any, welterweights would have been able to KO hatton like Pacquiao did, that was a brutal shot. Why? Because of Manny's speed & accuracy.
Further, about cotto's chin, would cotto survive the KO shot that finished hatton? I don't know, it's hard to say if he'd ever be in the same position in the first place, but cotto does eat leather so it's not impossible he would get caught with the same type of shot and best believe if he does, it at the very least will hurt cotto and if pacquiao can hurt him, he'll get his respect.
Hatton was there to be had by damn near any half-decent puncher from 135 up.Comment

Manny does not have much ring intelligence...he's still TRYING to learn.
As for his stanima..well..that was against old ass fighters.
Fanny Pac won't be able to close his eyes and fire over the top against Cotto...that **** don't work against somebody that stays low like Cotto.Comment
