    IMO this is a pick-em fight but I do give Cotto a slight edge cause of his size and power. Cotto training so early to lose weight might not let him hydrate as much as you think on fight night. We have all seen how vulnerable Cotto was at 140lb. Manny is being rated more on his last 2 performances than the people he fought. By no means Cotto is no Hatton or a Delahoya(an Oscar at that point of his career)

      Pac will eat his fair share of leather in this fight and you have to ask yourself as a Pacquiao fan, can he hang with the power of a legit welterweight who appears to be in his prime? Cotto has fought and eaten shots from massive welterweights (Clottey, Margarito) and dangerous punchers (Judah, Mosley). Who has Pacquiao ever fought that could bring the pain like the above mentioned fighters?
      thats my point i cant wait for november i never though i would praying for winter in the middle of summer lol

        Cotto vs Pacquiao

        Cotto has fought the BEST out there, struggling against a huge welter like Margo or Josh Clottey is the price when you are not fighting pushovers. Speed aside Manny has not fought anyone like Cotto... This fight may be a romp for Cotto... Manny is not going to KO him, he will have to avoid being hit for 12 rounds... 36 year old Oscar and limited Hatton do not gauge what Cotto can do....

          toby if you look at my thread and post i been sayin this is a pick'em fight but some people on here have gone as far to say that this a tune up fight for pac and really think on november 14 alot of pac's fans are going to get a rude awakening

              i got cotto winning this fight because pac just can't hurt him. pac may be faster but he will not be able to hurt cotto. the one thing that i disagree with cotto is about this being a war. pac is not that ****** and he will be moving all overthe place. this won't be a war

                    I love both guys , but i have been watching a lot of there older fights , and if pac can take cotto's punch , which i think he will be able to, cotto will be screwed. Pac can fight 12 rounds , still moving his head and bouncing around, and thats in a war. Cotto cant do that. Its a tough one to call though cause you have no idea how effective the size difference will be for cotto.

                      Pac has been easy in his last few fights and he's probably thinking this will be easy too. Pac is going to be in for the shock of his life, Cotto is ready for war.
