Pacquiao vs Cotto: What Outcome Would Be Most Beneficial To Boxing?

[El Chicano]

Simple question....

[Weebler I]

My thoughts:

* Either would be good as they're willing to take on the best

* A Mayweather/Pac showdown would be huge for boxing whereas Mayweather/Cotto would merely be big

* White America more readily identifies with Cotto and they are the biggest market

* Cotto isn't about to retire unlike Manny Pacquiao

* Pac is the more exciting fighter


ultimately though, I don't think it really matters.

I hope the Cotto dudes dont take this wrong......but a Pac win is the best thing for boxing right now......it sets up the fight with Floyd which is the BIGGEST fight in the world of boxing right now!!!......I like JMM and Cotto but they're standing in the way of THE FIGHT that has EVERYBODY talking and debating!!......with that said I got Cotto by KO but I wouldnt mind gettin' this one wrong tho'

[Airforce1234]

whoever wins would would be the same against floyd, cotto will be a bigger star if he fights pacquiao, if he beats pacquiao hes an even bigger star

- best thing to happen in this fight is to see a great fight, an action packed war like margarito-cotto, a 1 punch knockout would be bad,
-a judah--cotto type fight in pacquiao vs cotto would be the best for boxing.

Pac is the face of boxing.

He needs to be tested and challenge.

So he takes Cotto.

Soon maybe PBF and Mosley.

A draw...............

[JOM'S]

biggest fight out there the king kong & godzilla of fights is PAC vs PBF!!!

Manny needs to get pass Miguel for that Fight to happen...

[Mr. Philadel]

AGAIN.....Pac has to win to make the fight with Floyd!!......Pac is a hero to his countrymen and to many others all over the world.......when you get a 1 hour feature on CNN.....not ESPN......but CNN INTERNATIONAL......then you're SOMEBODY good aka a hero!!......Floyd on the other hand is the complete opposite of Pac......Floyd is loud and vulgar.......money flashing, money talking, braggin' machine!!......Pac knocks dudes out and tries to help them up (Diaz).......Floyd beats them then call them ******* afterwards......good guy vs bad guy or hero vs villian is all in this one!!......it makes for a GREAT 24/7 and a even GREATER fight with the stakes being higher than just a strap.....this is some real legacy **** here!!!.....Pac vs Floyd cant be topped......no matter which boxer you support......you have to admit that there's no bigger fight out there!!

Simple question....

pac winning against cotto is definitely good for boxing. not only that he will be the first to get 8 titles in 7 weight divisions, it may also setup a possible fight againt floyd
