    Remember when JLC outweighed Corrales in rematch?

    1 sweet left hook ended the night for Corrales because he was too brave for his own good. Do you guys think that will happen with Pac-Cotto? Regardless of how good Manny thinks he is against bigger fighters, 1 simple punch from Cotto could put him to sleep because of the weight difference? I'm not trying to make an excuse already because I love both fighters and don't really want to see either lose. I'm just asking a simple question in regards to the weight difference, a fighter being too brave for his own good, and how possible a jab will put Pacman on his ass?

    Corrales was never the same after the first fight. Neither was Castillo for that matter. No person should be expected to go through what those guys went through.

    Different circumstances. Still think Cotto will win.

      I think Pacquiao will be more careful than ever.
      It will just be combinations and move out, combinations, move out. Pacquiao will avoid getting hit with big shots.

      I know Roach has said that he's willing to trade but I think he changed his mind.

        Yeah I doubt Pac will trade with Cotto, but he's definitely gonna attempt to throw his combinations when get's a chance. But how long will Cotto allow Pac to unload on him before he delivers a big shot in return? And...can Pac take the shot? We all say, how well can Pac take a WW shot, but he's not trying to find out, and he usually spars with bigger fighters as a norm to help him feel a stronger punch. I'm not sure how well it'll help against Cotto tho.
