World renowned boxing trainer Ronnie Shields has quite an impressive list of fighters that he's worked with over the years. His resume has impressive names such as Evander Holyfield, Juan "Baby Bull" Diaz, Kermit Cintron, Rocky Juarez, just to name a few. Shields is another name that you can add to a growing list of people in the boxing world that are leaning toward a Miguel Cotto victory over Pacquiao.
Many people agree, (this writer being one of them), that the only way someone can beat Pacquiao is if they can hit hard enough to gain Manny's respect. They have to be able to hit him hard enough as to where Manny thinks twice about jumping inside and unleashing his speedy attack. If someone can make Manny pay for stealing that real estate, they might be able to get him out of his groove. There is a problem with that theory though. You would have to be able to land your leather, you can't hit what you can't catch.
With that said, Pacquiao fans should keep humble and not for one second underestimate the very dangerous Miguel Cotto. If guys like Ronnie Shields are leaning toward Cotto, it's certainly worth taking a look at.
