why is cotto being overlooked and downplayed so much in this fight??

[dondi330]

Larry, I think Cotto is being disrespected cause he's washed up, he's damaged goods, he's underdog against a former Featherweight, and he just doesn't have the 'firepower' to beat a fighter like Manny Pacquiao anymore.

Arum is setting Cotto up, he knows he will lose badly. Why you think you never read articles about Arum talking about Cotto vs Mayweather?

All you read is Arum talking about Pacquiao getting the bigger share against Mayweather.

Arum knows what's up. He's doing this cause of Cotto threatening to leave Top Rank in the beggining of the year after Cotto was disgusted of Arum defending Margarito and Cotto let the news know that he didn't like what Arum was doing and that he might be leaving Top Rank when his contract expires.

Enter Pacquiao. Arum says "okay you wanna leave? i want you to meet my Filipino friend, Manny Pacquiao on November 14th". Now Cotto signed another contract with Arum cause Arum set him for a big money fight, but also a loss that will end Cotto's relevancy.


^Jk I just made all that up

But i really think Pacquiao will KHTFO.

Doesn't make sense Considering Miguel signed a two year deal.
Sounds too conspiring and out there.

To naswer TS uestion.

Its simlle Larryx, people go with hype, and dont analyze ****!

[Aracibo04]

You are one dumb mother****er.

PACQUIAO fought better competition.

END OF STORY.

PACQUIAO s KO over HOYA is better then everything COTTA has done as welterweights.

horrible post maybe worst of the year you cant be serious when did you start watching boxing do you really believe that version of oscar could handle mosley margs clottey or cotto for that matter

bro guys like him need to be left to themselves because guys like him do not contribute anything to a conversation. Why? because he keeps saying the same thing in every post in every thread. I agree he should be in the running for worst poster of the year. And do we have some bad ones here LOL

Cotto is being overlooked because simple boxing minds saw his last few performances and weigh them against Pacquaio's last few performances and come to the conclusion that Pac should win, neglecting that styles make fights.

Coz people are ****** and don't know **** about boxing. TS you're damn right.

[Junito-Rulez]

i mean since when did cotto become some punk *****????this is disturbing....no 1 walks thru miguel cotto.

I might sig that tomorrow.

[zalez787]

this is pacmans first fight with anyone resembling a boxer since jmm..and cotto fights almost just like him..except he's bigger and stronger..what has pacman done in his last few fights the suggest he will run thru cotto??

pacmans last 3 fights
david diaz at 135
oscar at 147
hatton at 140......

ok not bad


cottos last 3 fights
margo-147
jennings-147
clottey-147

solid fighters at 147..2 of which were title holders..


so why is cotto so overlooked???dont get me wrong pacman is one hell of a fighter but cotto aint no pushover not at all.......

Its completely true. I mean it is not that big of a deal that he beat De la hoya. Or hatton. Any top ww would have done the same thing even at 140.

Paquiao is buying his own media hype and its gonna cost him.

Mosley beat de la hoya in his prime twice. And he prob would have been bigger if he went up in weight and beat an old legend and a one-dimensional fighter with no defense. Thats what Paquiao has done up to now in the ww division. Nothing else. Miguel has. Its his division , he is going to be ready very motivated he is going to study manny , he is going to do a smart fight , he is taking manny into deep waters and going to expose him , a loss for cotto will put him in a spot where people would say he was all hype and ppl will forget about his heart and courage , he fought everybody they put in front of him and he didnt have an easy ladder to climb either. And a loss for Paquiao will be looked at like , well it had to stop at some point , and his 2 wins over de la hoya and fatton , will not be ****. THIS IS HIS FIRST TEST. Some say his speed , will be too much , but cotto is no push over and is not ****** , he is going to put smart pressure on pac.
