[Mighty_Windir]

Don't let your hates scot free!!! If Cotto lose, yuou'll be insane!

Na, he has what it takes to beat Pac.

how do i found out when and where in san diego this press tour will be? I WANT TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It will be at Petco Park on Sept, 15th at 10:00PM eastern time and after that Pacman will probably be throwing the 1st pitch for the game that night.
That actually will be the last stop of the tour.

Manny Begins his hectic tour?! How about Manny and Miguel begin THIER hectic tours!!! I guess for alot of people Manny is fighting Manny come November and Cotto is left behind, clearly thier is favortism in this article and some folks are not taking into consideration Cotto!!

You only have to look at the writer of this article.

Yea I did ? Maybe its less hectic for Miguel considering he's coming from Florida and Manny has to make that grueling trip from the Phillipines !

Yeah, but remember that Cotto has to go to the west coast after NY and then travel back. I still agree with you that it's more hectic for Manny, but Ronnie is a Phillippine writer therefore he will be inclined to talk more about Pacman that Cotto.

Cant wait for this fight hope no-one gets injured training for this fight though..

I really expect a good sportsmanship tour with 2 gentlemen treating each other with respect during the tour, similar to "Fast and Furiois" for Mosley-Cotto but a total war in the ring, hopefully even better than Mosley-Cotto.

Im expecting a big upset on this one. Everybody is writing Cotto off, but the surprise will come on Nov 14

Deja Vu

The more I read about Pacquiao and his movie deals, political aspirations, blood sucking entourage, and other such things, I begin to get a feeling of extreme deja vu, as if I have seen this before. Remember the movie, Rocky 3? Remember how Rocky was training for his first fight with Clubber Lang? Mickey couldn't get control of the gym, media was everywhere, Rocky was training in a lackluster fashion, he was shooting commercials and posing for magazines. Remember how Clubber Lang was training? Hardcore, old school, dedicated? Remember how the first fight played out? Rocky started off fast and furious, only to get beaten down viciously.

Now, I know that is just a movie, but I see similarities between that segment of the movie and what I am seeing between Pacquiao and Cotto. Cotto has already said he has begun training. He seems very focused and very determined. Pacquiao has not even begun training. He is out making a movie in the Phillipines, plans to train in the Phillipines, where distractions will be at their highest, and is looking ahead to retirement and political aspirations.

Based on what I have seen, all this gives me the indication that Pacquiao is not very serious and if my hunch is correct, that does not bode well for Pacman. Even Freddie Roach is concerned. This is Miguel Cotto, not Ricky Hatton. The man outboxed Sugar Shane Mosley. He fought a grueling battle with Joshua Clottey with one eye basically, and it took Margarito 11 rounds, with loaded gloves possibly, to stop him. This is by no means an easy fight for Pacquiao, and the people who think it is are delusional. This is Pacquiao's toughest fight by far. Pacquiao may prove me wrong. He may beat Cotto, hell, he may even blow past him. Pacquiao may be that good, but based on the evidence I am seeing, I just don't see it that way. I see Cotto winning by the 8th round via KO or referee stoppage.
