    Can and will Pacquiao be able to withstand that type of punishment through 12 rounds?

    No he can't. But it will be a different type of fight I think.

      pac HATES the jab, and cotto has a good one in both stances. this fight will be pretty even in you ask me, which is pretty darn good. i already have hotel reservations for that weekend
      lol, I have no arguement against that. If Pacquiao takes a body shot, i'm not sure if he will stay alive. Cotto would have to get through the barrage of punches first though. Which is hard to see Cotto getting through.

      It is pretty even. I just never been a Cotto fan, so naturally I would go for Pacquiao.

          It's a figure of speech, check into it.

          Trust me, I am a huge Cotto fan, but I cannot for the life of me come up with a way he can win this. He had a TON of problems with Mosley, basically ran the whole last 4 or 5 rounds if I remember correctly.

          That just shows you, he cannot fight a fight like that for 12 rounds.

            Hell No, but Baldomir could land against Margarito. It will be almost two years since Pac had a tough fight when he steps into that ring with Cotto. I guarantee you on Nov. 14 Pac will be in the toughest fight of his life. I don't know I can say the same for Cotto.

              ALL of Cotto's fights are the toughest of his life it seems. He barely beat Mosley, lost to Margacheato, and barely beat Clottey.

                People need to stop making it seen like Pacquiao is flash gordan and noone can hit him. Morales 1 and both marquez show that pacquiao gets hit, but without POWER. Can i get a co-sign??

                  People need to realize that Mosley, clottey and margarito are WELTERWEIGHTS ! Pacquiao, marquez, barrera, morales are not !

                    A lot of the punches that Cotto landed on Margarito were when he was going backwards. I'm not saying it doesn't hurt, just saying it would hurt more if he landed punches while going forward

                      I'm not comparing Cotto to them. If I did that then I would have mentioned similarities.

                      I just said, go tell Oscar and Hatton what you said. I think they would tell you otherwise.
