I think they both start off cautious feel each other out both being aware of the others ko power. Pac should be able to connect with clean punches first him being the faster man and all. After a couple rounds Cotto should be able to time his speed and land with clean shots of his own after being down on the cards for 3-4 round.....after that ???? I think Cotto should be able to catch Pac with a big shot eventually or on the ropes like he is Clottey and stop him.Comment

PAC starts off very cautious, using his footwork to measure Miguel and gauge how much speed advantage he actually has
he'll work off the jab for most of the first couple of rounds, avoiding violent exchanges at first...a few straight lefts will be thrown to see how Cotto reacts
meanwhile, Cotto will be trying his best to try to cut off the ring and establish his own jab...he'll be trying to time PAC and pick up his rythym
by the 5th or 6th, the footwork and handspeed will begin to take over...little by little, more exchanges occur...both fighters will have their moments but PAC begins to pull away on the cards
by the 8th or 9th, Cotto, with a quarter of gas left in his tank, begins to press and that's when the real PAC highlights begin
by the 10th or 11th, the little guy is teeing off on Miguel and Animalistic is already making a 'Cotto Was WeightDrained' thread
Decision win or late stoppage by PAC

Pac will start out quick jumping in and out as Cotto struggles to cut the ring off and catch him with the jab.
By around the 3rd or 4th, Cotto is gonna start sticking his jab in Pac's face as Pac darts in. Pac will be slightly more reluctant to dart in and Cotto will begin to have some success cutting the ring off.
Exchanges will happen and with Pac having the superior handspeed, he will get the best of many of them, but Cotto will do enough damage to make his thudding point.
Around the 8th or 9th Cotto will hurt Pac and take him out.
If Cotto can't control Pac's in and out movement with his jab he will lose a lop sided decision or get stopped. The entire fight hinges on that. I'm betting that he uses his jab effectively, and Pac won't have a sufficient plan B.Comment

I see this being a fast paced fight for the first two round. Both fighters landing some good shots, but Pacquiaos speed doing the better work. I then see the pace slowing down and a boxing match breaking out which will last until the 7th round. Here both will have their moments, and I expect Pac to dart in and out with Cotto trying to time him, and land less, but mor meaningful shots. I then see both getting comfortable and trying to crank in up from the 7th round with Pacquiao still full of stamina getting the better of Cotto really busting him up bad. I then see a clash of heads in the 8th with Cotto getting the worse of it. Cotto begins backing up in the ninth ina fight that could still go either way with Manny in attack mode trying to hurt Cotto. I then see an overconfident Manny walking into a jab off balance and going down, a flash knock down. Manny gets up, Cotto thinks he has him and goes all out, and Manny obliges, and they trade like mother****as for 20 seconds with manny langing flush shot after flush shot, catching Cotto with a perfect right hook, similar to the right hook he put Hatton down with, and Cotto wobbles and is out on the feet, but the 9th round bell saves him.
The fight is pretty close with manny slightly ahead starting the 10th, and Manny begins to pull away. At this point Cotto is out of gas, and manny is just circling him darting in and out with punches, Cotto is bloody, swollen and looks finished, similar to Pacquiao vs Oscar round 7. Cotto is hurt multiple times in the 10th but does not go down, and Manny lands something like 40 punches in the round to Cottos 5, a clear 10-8 round. The corner contemplates stopping it, but they allow him out. By this time Cotto is done and Manny takes his time and tees off on Cotto. To the crowds delight just as the ref is about to jump in Cotto explodes with a 4 punch combo and staggers Manny. Cotto senses that it is his last chance and tries to finish Pacquiao while he has the chance. He lands a few more on Pacquiao, and Pac looks ready to go for the first time in the fight. Cotto then makes the mistake of letting his guard down, and tries to rush Pacquiao. he then walks into a overhand left from hell, and falls to the canvas in a heap. The referee sensing Cotto is ot cold doesn't bother to count in, and Pacquiao is declared the winner by kncokout. It then becomes apparent that Pacquiao does not take WW power well and goes down to 140 and defends his title against Marquez.Comment
