Pacquiao's Fast Pace Will Wear Cotto Down, Says Roach

[don miguel]

Manny is not invincible, he was KO'd before. I know for a fact he can't take bodyshots. You are right Morales tore up his face. Have you noticed they haven't fought anyone that has very fast hands. Cotto can bust him up and hits much harder then him. They are only banking on the fact that Cotto might get weak from trying to make the 145.

Manny is not invincible. So is Cotto.
Manny was KO'd 10 years ago when he was a flyweight
How did you know that he can't take bodyshots?
Manny KO'd Morales in their 2nd and 3rd fight.
So JMM and Morales dont have fast hands?
They are banking on speed. Read again what roach said.

If Cotto comes out and starts to the body, it will be a short night for Pac, I don't think Pac's team are taking this into account. I could see Pac's pace being rather slow by the sixth if Cotto follows the game plan he should.

That is if Cotto could hit Pac's body.

Will the people that did NOT see cotto vs clottey/cotto vs mosley or seen my avatar from pacman vs morales 1.....please NOT post any more "pacman destroying cotto" comments. Thank you !

please be informed that, it happened years ago..
alot of changes since pacman lost to morales..
see him fight now,although he cant afford to recieve
those kind of hits anymore in this higher weight class..
thats why he has to change..

but i dont think that pacquiao would definitely
destroy cotto, its gonna be a tough fight..
but a win for pacquiao has the greater chance..

Freddie Roach and Manny is so full of ****! That is so simple, Roach is saying that they want to start the fight at a fast pace. That's the quickest way to make a fighter use his energy early especially if he had problems making the weight. So all Freddie is hoping is that Cotto gets weak. Manny is a weak ass fighter and he doesn't have no boxing skills. Why wouldn't Manny fight Mosley when Mosley offered to come down and fight at 140. He didn't accept that because he's afraid that Mosley can make the weight without being weak. He's afraid that's his ass. Like Nate Campbell said. Manny is nothing special.

Is Nate Campbell something special?

Are you saying that Cotto will have problem making weight?

Manny didn't accept to fight Mosley because of people like you. He knows even if he wins over SSM at 140, people like you will continue to throw **** at him.

Youre just jealous that Manny chose Cotto.

Manny is nothing special to you. But for millions, he is very special

cottos timing boxing skill and power are being severely underated cotto has fought fast guys before like judah and mosley and his timing was the difference. pac is the one who will be facing something that he never has before so i think pac has the bigger adjustment than cotto and is in for a surprise when he starts to take shots. remember hatton and hoya barely landed against pac so we dont know how he handles a truly bigger mans punch

[don miguel]

easier said than done freddie the problem with fighting this fast paced fight is it will leave pac to get hit a lot and he never been hit by someone who can punch like miguel if jmm can put manny on ***** street and bust his **** open imagine what happens when that left hook lands or even the jab. manny gets tkod within 10. hopefully manny doesnt get beaten to bad so that he can go back down to 135-140 weight class and fight where he belongs

manny was never been in trouble against jmm. if that left hook could land. thats a big if

[ny123]

manny was never been in trouble against jmm. if that left hook could land. thats a big if

manny was never really in trouble but he was rocked and his eye was busted open with a punch from marquez so imagine what happends when cottos punch lands. to think that cotto will not even touch pac like pac is some master boxer is ridiculous

Trainer Freddie Roach is already creating the blueprint for Manny Pacquiao's strategy to beat WBO welterweight champion Miguel Cotto on November 14 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Roach doesn't think Cotto has the stamina to fight a fast paced for twelve rounds. He plans to make Pacquiao come out fast and hard to start the fight with a ****. Roach sees Cotto getting tired in the late rounds and then Pacquiao will take him out. [details]

This strategy would work if Cotto was weight drained like DeLaHoya.Unfortunately Cotto knows how to slow down people and he will just slow Manny down.Manny might find himself being battered like Judah.I got my money on Cotto to win by brutal knockout now

Cottos timing boxing skill and power are not being underrated. thats why roach says cotto is the toughest fight for pac. judah and ssm is nowhere near the speed of pac. pac spars with middleweights. did you know what happened to some of them? dont under estimate pacs chin and his ability to take body shots either.
