Looks like your poll is owning you, did you expect anything different. It will be a great win for Cotto and it will remove any excuses Mayweather has for not fighting him. Then we'll get to see how big of a ***** Mayweather really is.
What Does a COTTO Win over MANNY PACQUIAO Mean?

Wait, I'm shocked at the percentage here. REALLY. I do not understand for the people who support or make an argument that it would be a great win if Cotto beats Pacquiao--how so? When a large portion of these people claim Oscar was weight drained, Ricky Hatton had no skills, David Diaz was the weakest--yet, voted that this would be a great win for Cotto.
I understand Cotto's stock would rise, but having it be a great win when Cotto's is the naturally bigger, stronger guy against Pacquiao? Please don't use "everybody saying Pacquiao beats Cotto" argument. I'm talking about boxing skills here--something that everybody has been making an argument against Pacquiao to discount his achievements.
Could somebody PLEASE explain this to me.Last edited by rao007; 08-10-2009, 09:41 AM.Comment

The thing is though, isn't Cotto in a big money / big PPV event right now? At this point, what's GBP going to do for Cotto that Arum hasn't already? A fight with Floyd? ****, Oscar can't even get Shane a fight with Floyd.
People wanna talk rematches and so forth, but how many rematches are you supposed to have when there's still guys out there you haven't fought? That's what I love about Boxing, fighting different styles and seeing how a fighter can adjust.
But, it's also a business. And for someone like Cotto who's fought for less money against risky fighters, I think he's earned the right to fight for a big payday.Last edited by Ravishing; 08-10-2009, 09:19 AM.Comment

I will say 1 thing though to Floyd's defense. His wins against DLH and Hatton mean more than Pacquiao's. That's a no brainer.Comment

What Does a Cotto Win over Manny Pacquiao Mean?Does it mean:
1.That Manny Pacquiao was the world's top junior welter but we found out against COTTO that he was no better than top ten at 147?
2.That he beat a fighter that didnt belong at Welterweight?
3. That Cotto should have fought Berto, Mosley, or Williams instead of picking on Jr. WW's?
4. If Cotto wanted to fight within the Welterweight limit than he should have fought a WELTERWEIGHT! and if he wanted to fight Pacman the fight should been at 140, a weight thats his Pacquiao weightclass.
5. That it was a great win reguardlessComment

Damn misunderstood the poll (its early on a monday give me a break!)
This is a mediocre win for Cotto at best. If he doesn't KTFO the smaller man, he's a joke of a "big" WW. Hard place for Cotto to be in as its kind of a lose/lose situation...except for his wallet.Last edited by madsweeney; 08-10-2009, 09:33 AM.Comment

What does it mean For Cotto to force Pacquiao to move up to Welterweight just to fight him...?
Why didnt Cotto move down to 140 if he wanted to fight Pacquiao?
Why is he forcing Pacquiao to moved up to welterweight...when Pacquiao weightclass is 140?
What does that win mean for has legacy...
Should he just have fought berto or williams?
Delete serioulsy...stfu up already...u keep repeating urself when people have ALREADY posted BoxingScenes own article where its 110% proven that PACQUIAO ORDERED THE FIGHT SINCE HE WAS AT THE COTTO/CLOTTEY FIGHT.
PACQUIAO wants to fight for a 7th weight class belt...So he made the choice to move up to the WW limits u ******..how is fighting Cotto at 140 gonna help him do this??? it wont u ****tard.Damn im new here and i can tell ur an idiot and annoy alot of people on here. More reason this forum needs Mods...And u keep saying its not pacs class and he wont be at his best..well guess what sherlock..Cotto has to be 145 or less..which isnt his weight class either so he wont be at his best...according to u and ur dumbass logic.Comment
