* He predicted a round 9 KO of Oscar. I firmly believe that this would have been the exact outcome if Oscar's corner hadn't rescued him from further embarrassment. Oscar quit between rounds 8 and 9.
* He predicted Manny knocking Hatton out in 3 rounds. Manny did it in 2.
If he says they're gonna shut Cotto out, I have no good reason not to believe he means what he says.

Cotto will be the biggest, strongest, and most physical fighter Pacman has ever faced. He is no Hatton, who only comes forward (with his hands down). Cotto boxes, counters, and cuts off the ring effectively. I say that the chances that Pacman will win every round are 1:1,000,000,000.

hey to the **PHOETOE** dude that made pacquiao's head huge lol....
this message goes to that dude, **PHOETOE**, who made pacquiao's head way too big lol......
aight, i see what u did but check out their hands in that pic (or any other pic for their press conferences)....thats their true sized hands also...i checked out pics in all their press conferences and cotto has these "really tiny hands" lmao....like in the burger king commercials hahah....he should be used in their next commercial cuz he might be too scared to hold such a big burger at burger king and rather go to mcdonalds lol....
but on a serious note, pacquiao has always had bigger hands than many of his opponents from ppl that like to go further into the "tale of the tape" stats...in the de la hoya fight he also had bigger hands and that amazed boxing writers and commentators, since oscar is like 4-5 inches taller than manny....
so all these ppl saying that cotto is the better puncher is definitely crazy bc pacquiao has always been regarded as a big puncher through out his entire career (and thats how he got his original top rankings on the pound for pound list...oh and there is a tape out there when pac was ranked 2nd after floyd, with mayweather saying that he also believes pac is ranked 2nd after him..and that was just after the 2nd morales fight)
every boxer knows that when size doesnt make a difference, the stronger legs, the size of the hands, and strength play a huge role in who is the better puncher...so cotto will be the "heavier handed" guy in this fight but all the attributes of a big puncher could very well be going to the filipino slugger...
i personally love this fight and to me its definitely a toss up as to who will win but from being a long time boxing fan, u have to admire pacquiao for always fighting the toughests opponents and bringing up the competition is his next fights...
that being said, mayweather is definitely a great fighter but he needs to take bigger risks (especially if he wants that pound for pound ranking)...to prove my point when he fought carlos baldomir (i saw the fight, but who the **** is that really lol) the title of the fight was called "pretty risky" lol..then he fought oscar...floyd has said though that he signed a contract with golden boy saying that he will fight at least 5 fights in his comeback so hopefully he picks better opposition!!!...to me, its just nothing but great news for boxing and i cant wait for all these bigger fights in the future!!!
