Pacquiao will beat Cotto

I think Pacquiao's going to do to Cotto what he did to De La Hoya in the seventh + eighth round.
Cotto has problems with pressure fighters who throw high volumes of punches. Margarito KOd him that way and Clottey was pressuring but not throwing enough punches. Pacquiao in the De La Hoya fight towards the end chased after him and exploded with a barrage of bunches which he had no answer for. I doubt Cotto will have an answer.

What can i say, Yeah there's a big chance Manny will beat Cotto. What i like in this fight is the courage of this two fighter inside the ring. No bull****, a fight of the year ever in the making

Its funny how everyone is talking about what Pac, is going to do to Cotto, offensively, but what about what Cotto can do to Pac?..Granted Pac is going to hit Cotto, but Cotto is a pretty good counter puncher and he has shown that he can deal with speed or at least neutralize speed, like he did with Shane and Judah. This is going to be a war..

cotto will be a dangerous live opponent, with that said, I see pac going 12 rounds and out box cotto.

Cotto will have to take a knee again too bad for him.

Cotto got too much size n strength for lil Pac.

This fight is starting to remind me of the Tito-Hopkins fight..everyone thought that Tito was going to destroy B-hop..well not everybody but almost everyone..then look what happened Tito got owned.., Tito destroyed Joppy which was suppose to be the tougher guy in the middleweight tounament and B-Hop didnt look all that good againts Keith Holmes, kinda like this fight Pac obliterates Hatton and beats a shadow of DLH, and Cotto doesnt look to impressive againts Clottey..so now Cotto gets written off like he is done..

Cotto has trouble dealing with speed which will be the key factor in this fight. You already know what the game plan will be. Stick, stick, stick and move aside.

Roach is too smart not to know what Cotto's weaknesses and vulnerabilities are. Cotto has no defense for punches coming straight into the middle and up in between the gloves. Cotto does NOT have the stamina needed to keep up with a darting high energy Manny Pacquiao.

I honesly wouldnt be surprised if Pacquiao TKO's Cotto. Styles make fights and Pac's style is all wrong for Cotto.

2501?? is that you? Cotto having problems with speed??? hes dealt with the most speedy elements at his weight!!!!

No defense for straight shots?? What did mosley do to him throughout the entire fight??

Did Horus hack into your username??

Cmon lets be a lil more logical here. Cottos strength and jab alone will keep pacquiao at a long distance away from Cotto allowing Cotto to come forward. Pacquiao will be on the backfoot plenty throughout the fight. Cottos best performances were against boxer punchers. its just what he does best. You honestly pacquiao has the power to KO Cotto but Shane Clottey and marg dont??

Cmon 2501 lets be more realistic here Pac will take some MAJOR damage in this fight. He will find pacquiao and he WILL hirt him.

Pacquiao will beat Cotto
