What is Cotto's main advantage over Pacquiao?

[JACK D. RIPPER]

Skills, size, experience against tougher bigger competition, chin, heart.

[VERDUGO]

I think Pacquiao has the advantage.................speed.

I think you'll be shocked at how many straight left hands Cotto eats.

I won't be shocked.
Cotto was wide open for any left hands,wether it's the uppercut or a straight left, on the Judah fight.
Judah just didn't throw enough.

Cotto's boxing skill. Skills meaning the non-physical talent aspects. While Pac is wins by being more physically talented than his opponents Cotto can win by being more skilled.

Cotto is good at adapting during a fight and is a smart versatile fighter. He can be the aggressor and engage. He can counter, he can shoe shine and move, he can sit on his punches and he can fight off the front and back foot.

Cotto is not as physically talented as Mosley or Judah.

What is Cotto's main advantage over Pacquiao?
Cotto's early training,Manny's distractions, Having faced bigger fighters, Cotto's size, Boxing skills and ability to pressure and trap or Strong chin?

Others, power and accuracy combined.

Cotto's.....

Cotto isn't much bigger than Paquiao plus cooto has heart fighting alot of rounds with a broken nose leaking large amounts of blood.He didn't quit he had an cut in his eye from the clottey fight he didn't quit.Plus Cotto is a strong puncher paquiao bounces abck when hes under attack he bounces back from marquez punches marquez wasn't much of a puncher at 130.Pacquiao likes to jump back and loosen his arms and cotto is goona rush in and knock him out.

WASN'T MUCH OF A PUNCHER?! He stopped Diaz and Casamayor. In the rematch Pac had improved technically and JMM wasn't able to catch him as easily as before. Cotto has a definite size and physicality advantage. Pac will have to use his speed to damage and escape before Cotto can get to his ribcage. I'm taking Pac in the fight tho...
