Cotto's Physical Trainer Arrives, The Hard Road Begins

[swizz]

Train all you want, My Question is not about training but how bout that heart????

Not that physical pump but the deep recesses of solid forititude that is unbreakable, deep gameness when in the trenches , there is no QUIT !!!!

Will you take that KNEE for another DAY ???

you know this is gotta be the dumbest comment you are questioning cotto's heart....what the **** do you call fighting everyone that no one would fight or fighting 9 rounds with one eye you could say i hope his stamina doesnt let him down but his heart you my friend are an idiot

[swizz]

i guess team cotto doesn't need any strategy against the pacman. cotto's physical trainer already arrived early in PR which means they are more concerned about the physical nature of his training. meanwhile, pac's coach freddie roach is busy watching all the cotto fights looking for a flaw in cotto's arsenal that he and pacquiao might exploit during the fight.

im sure someone from his camp and even miguel are lookin at films but isnt pac filming a movie

I think what they are trying to do is just right.

They are focusing in Cotto's conditioning and speed without affecting his power during this 1st period of training and then drag that conditioning (obvoulsy with out overtraining) to the strategy portion of the training when they move the camp to Florida. I'm sure they will have plenty of videos and sparring partners to "simulate" (impossible task) Pacquiao. We must remember that Cotto can't start his hard part of physicall contact to soon due to his cut against Clottey, so there's no harm to start to work on his conditioning in the meantime.

if their strategy is to spar with pacquiao-alike style sparmates in the not so later part of training, then i think that's not a good strategy at all. imo, they should study first what pac does and doesn't do inside the ring that made him successful. that way, they can come up with a strategy to counter pac's advantages which in my opinion is alot.aside from pac's speed and also power, he also has good lateral movement (he's mobile), likes to throw alot of punches, and also has a good stamina.

correct me if im wrong but isn't it the conditioning part of a training is done during later part when the fight is near?

Wtf does cotto need strategy for? He's 10+ lbs heavier than pac on fight night. Cotto will walk thru pac's best shots and hurt pac eventually KOing pac. If cotto can't do this to a little dude like pac who used to fight at 106 lbs, he needs to retire because there are real WWs waiting for him.

How can this happen? 145 lbs is just 1 lbs from 146 lbs. Cotto aint gonna be weight drained.
