Pacquiao and Cotto To Wear Puncher's Gloves on 11/14

[MaD RoBoT]

Cotto at 16 was fighting Ivan Calderon at 100 pounds...

I guess Manny is picking on a former 100 pounder.


Jeez Manny...what a bully.

but Calderon wasn't the lineal flyweight champion at that time , right?

I'm 100% sure Calderon would box circles around all those guys Manny got Ko'ed by early in his career.

Hahaha, these guys are warriors! and Manny got ***in balls! He's like, ok I'm facing a bigger guy, I'm gonna need abit more fire power, letme get 8oz. He's gonna wear them too? Whocares, I'll land first. LoL!

Why not SSM and PBF fight williams? Manny has all the right to choose his opponents at 147 b.c he is barely JW. What is the reason why PBF chose to fight a smaller 135 champ JMM at 147? They should have announced SSM vs PBF before the Pac Hatton fight coz they are both Golden Boys. Now you whine b.c Pac chose Cotto.

Moronic post...

Floyd started as a featherweight... all of a sudden you un-educated boxing "experts" make him out to be some sort of a giant. Floyd Mayweather is not a big boxer by any means.. all this talk about small Welters and blown up lightweights is nonsense. THE WEIGHT IS THE WEIGHT!! Both men sign and agree.. they know what is at stake. They all range from 5'6 to 5'9 and all have advantages and disadvantages that make these fights interesting.

Did Manny hand picked to fight Barrera, Morales and JMM?

dont be ****** and yes morales 2 and 3 were oportunistic as morales was beaten badly before by a 2nd rate guy prince raheem, everyone is referring to pacs last 3, and choosing not to face jmm a 3rd time definatley is cowardly seeing as so far jmm is the only guy left standing and in the eyes of many victorious twice over pac.no excuse for not facing jmm 3 totally unfinished buisness there.and no buisness with mosley for that matter.

You must be crazy to think he cant. I mean Cotto has been rocked by Corley,Torres and even Judah. are you really gonna say any of those guys got more power then Pacquiao?? and lets not forget that the slowest WW in the last 20 years was landing 5 piece combos on Cotto, what the hell do you think Pac is gonna do?? yeah, yeah ,yeah, Pac hasnt felt power like Cottos is gonna give him and thats right. but he will get out landed 3-1 and wont be able to take all that punishment. will be fun while it lasted but my fellow Boricua will get KO by 5.

torres yes has more power than Pac but no where near the speed..judah is questionable since he is a welter and it depends on how Pac brings his power up which i think he will so he has the edge there...Corley is interesting becasue he wasnt a big puncher but he was a southpaw like Pac so that could be a huge factor in the fight becasue Cotto is inexperienced agaisnt them and hasnt looked amazing agaisnt the few he fought

youre forgetting quintana wasnt he a lefty whom cotto destroyed? and then quintana beat thencrap out of williams for 12 rnds, is pac as good as quintana, as a fighter?all the hype surrounding pac aside?

[boxingfan76]

i would say the resume definitley favors cotto, pac has faced and beaten many surefire hof'ers but cotto has beaten naturally bigger and more dangerous dudes by and far.

Cotto is getting KTFO now. Pacquiao is gonna be accused of doping and loaded gloves after this one.
