      Before it was annoced i thought Cotto would demolish him, then i switched to a Pac KO win but after watching Pac vs JMM 2 again last night i thin k im switching back to Miguel, **** i dunno! Nobody knows for sure and if afterwards people say "oh it was obvious Cotto would win he is so much bigger" or Cotto was made for Manny, easy pick, he's too slow and chinny" then disregaurd it, THIS IS A LEGIT PICK EM FIGHT!

        It's easy to point out Pacquiao's flaws and type about how easy it will be for a fighter to exploit those flaws. ****, look at ricky hatton "same move every time" it's another thing to actually exploit them in the ring.

        The only person who's been successful at exploiting pacquiao's flaws has been Marquez, and he still got dropped four times in the process. The thing is, you have to be a Marquez, a master counter puncher and a master at timing shots. Cotto isn't that guy. Sure he has a good jab, well so does Oscar and like Oscar, I think cotto will abandon his jab completely after the first couple rounds because it will not be effective. What does that leave for cotto? Aggression. Aggression alone doesn't beat Pac, never has, you need to bring a lot more than that because for every shot cotto lands he's going to get hit with 3 or 4 shots from Pac. You need to be able to neutralize Pac with superb counter punching and unfortunately for cotto that just isn't his forte.

        This is why Cotto will fall short. He'll put up a good fight, but he wont win.

            In baseball, pitchers brush back batters or hit batters that are too close to the plate. I have no problem with Cotto throwing 1 low blow at Pacquiao if he finds Pacquiao running, same with no problem if pacquiao throws a low blow at cotto. Ref warns them and you move on.

              What made Morales so successful in 1st fight? All we know is EVEN if cotto does win i see more excuses on pacquiao losing than cotto losing, especially from Roach.

                he backed pac up. he jabbed. he never backed up himself.

                c'mon! pac is not a real WW. that is fact. cotto will win because he is a very good WW and has only lost or struggled against huge WWs. its not rocket science.

                  Cotto will only win if he gets a TKO or KO. Cotto will NOT, repeat....NOT win a decision, even if it's a UD. WBO, ARUM, Las Vegas WON'T allow it.
