Mayweather Sr: “Cotto Can Take Pacquiao’s Head Off”

[boxingfan76]

Marg doesn't have a huge punch, he gets his KOs by volume of punches, he's never been a one-punch knock-out artist. Pac does have a big punch when he sets himself (as against JMM and Hatton).



You must be mixing Cotto up with someone else! He's 5′ 7″ with a 67″ reach. Pac is 5′ 6½″ with a 67″ reach. They are almost identical in that respect!



If Pac's a midget then Cotto's a midget. Cotto may be naturally heavier but they are virtually the same height and have identical reach. And Pac weighs 147 on fight night, the same as Floyd does - do you think Floyd is a midget as well?



He is a natural 140 pounder now. The fact that he weighed less in the past is irrelevant.



No smaller in size than Cotto, no smaller in fight night weight than Floyd.



He didn't set himself for those punches, he was on the move the whole time. When he sets himself he does have one-punch power.



In the Mayweather fight he didn't show a glass chin at all, he took a lot of punches right on the button before he went down, and even then he got up despite hitting a corner post very hard with the back of his head on the way down.

Against Collazo and Lazcano he left his chin hanging out and anyone can get starched when they do that (see Nate Campbell vs. Robbie Peden). Despite that he managed to win both fights.

Against Tszyu, the biggest punching Jnr Welterweight of his generation, he took many of Tszyu's best punches and still won.

He was lineal Jnr Welterweight champion for nearly four years. Although most people expected Pac to beat him, there was not one respected boxing analyst who expected it to be as one-sided as it was. Almost all of them predicted a very competitive war, and a late round KO.


You're just blinded by your hate.

the knockdown jmm caught him cold that doesnt mean he has 1 punch ko power, pac hits very hard but so far the only guy hes kod with 1 shot is hatton and , you cant say hatton wasnt shopworn,the longer a fighter goes the more easily they can get ko'd floyd isnt a ko puncher and he kod hatton and hatton hadnt been ko'd before thenmaking it a much bigger and legit ko victory depite it being late rnds, that was a whole 2 years before..you cannot deny hatton has a weak chin especially at this stage after being badly hurt and even ko'd once before, so that win alone doth not make pac a 1 punch power guy at all just based on that.as far as the 5-11 i was referring to margarito if a guy that big couldnt ko cotto with that many shots ,its unlikely pac will did you see margarito ko cintron like in the 3rd??? cintrons huge!!!.floyd is 5-9 even though its only 2 inches apart 5-6 looks midgetish im sorry even compared to 5-7.hatton when he beat tzyou was a much better hatton than now , brawlers dont last too long on top like hatton so its like a battery that loses its charge just like tyson, and so many other that fight like that.so to say pac accomplished something incredible with that wijn is rubbish devastating yes something new no.it was a matter of time i dont even see why it shocks people.

He didnt say Pac has a lot of balls , he said Roach made a big mistake accepting this fight . Mark his words ! LOL

[boxingfan76]

people knock floyd sr ,and i think hes often full of ****, but sometimes a blind hog will find an acorn every so often.pac has really never taken the shot of a 140lber let alone a 147lber. and cotto hits very very hard against legit huge welters, if cotto lands flush which is a great possibility , seeing as how cotto has some of the highest accuracy rates in the sport pac would be out of there.not saying thats going to happen but theres a good chance roach and pac severley underestimated cotto.

Floyd Sr. also said Hatton would destroy Pac and we saw what happened there

[boxingfan76]

Your argument doesn't make sense at all is people like you that don't want to admit reality, yes pac is a great fighter in my opinion not one of the best. He is riding on the wins vs old dlh remember first dlh was old and second he was dehydrated and weak if you don't realize that and accept it then you must be on crack. Now onto hatton tell me if hatton was really good before facing pbf??? he was never good and pbf knocked him out and he was done after that do you remember the hatton vs lazcano fight??

In reality pac has only beaten a really good old fighter notice old there which is JMM and also notice when i say beaten I mean a gift by judges. The morales and barrera version he beat werent the prime versions the prime morales and prime barrera would of destroyed him specially a prime morales who also beat him the first time of the 3 fights.

Conclusion is pac is good no doubt about it but the media and people like you make him seem like he is the best one in the sport. which in my opinion is marquez and PBF even though i don't like pbf he is good. I just can't believe people are picking pac to beat cotto and specially by ko specially boxingscene **** it makes me question their boxing knowledge. The way cotto had troubles with clottey which in my opinion he lost is not gonna happen with pac because pac is not a tough, tall welterweight. Cotto should win the fight by ko but it might be hard due to the weight and how he got battered by clottey, if the cotto that fought margarito and mosley show up the night of the fight he should ko pac in about 3-5 rounds.

they dont understand that, your a hater if you say that but its only true. i guess were just supposed to swallow the pill and play along. even gaylahoya had legit wins against straight up killers!!!!in their prime,even undefeateds. pac really doesnt.im sorry he just doesnt.pac is very one dimensional as great as he is 1-2 1-2 those arent even combinations really he just throws a buch of 1-2 over and over thats not a combination , a combination is an array of DIFFERENT punches thrown in succsession and pac doesnt do that,not only that he just doesnt fight people of his own caliber hasnt since jmm.

if pac faces mosley or floyd will you be so confident or even jmm???

but theres a good chance roach and pac severley underestimated cotto.

Roach is far too astute to do that.

Just curious, who could Pac have fought in his last two fights that has the same or greater global exposure and economic benefits? Enlighten us.

[boxingfan76]

Roach is far too astute to do that.

roach is a great trainer but when its been easy wins 3 in a row,the confidence goes way up and mistakes can be made.its easy to overestimate and i think roach has overestimated pac.he relying on cotto beng shot hes even said this :"is a little shot already after the marg loss, he doesnt look good" i feel that cotto is on the decline but does have enough left to do very well against pac.pac does have the advantage and momentum, but 1 punch can change it all.
