    but than I think..What if Pac puts Cotto to sleep 'ala Hatton!..I'd faint!..haha!..I thought hattons bullying would disrupts Pacquiao's momentum and make it interesting...but Pac said Fuck that...TAKE THIS!..and lights out!..

    but you're right..if Pac's plan doesn't work..he'll more than likely resort to brawling..and that I KNOW is a No No for Pac..cuz Cotto is too accurate..and Pac's defense is no Clottey's!..he'll tag his **** clean!..

    I'm just sittin 50/50 right now...it's weird tho..cuz like I said..I've never felt this way..the closest was in the Clottey fight..but I think it's cuz I was gonna be there live and I was preparing to be upset..and I was tellin everyone this will be Cotto's closest fight to date..cuz I know Clottey's capabilities..and indeed it was CLOSE!..

    I want a Cotto victory solely because I wanna see if Mayweather will fight him..other than that I wanna win my money and see a GREAT fight..who ever wins!.
    I hear you man, I'm obviously worried. But I'll be honest, I was more worried for the Clottey fight.

    Cotto aint gettin Hatton'd....bet the house on that.

    Cotto will demand far more respect, and he's not comin' in like Hatton. Cotto's a much more careful fighter and he's become more and more aware as he's been presented with guys that he can't physically dominate, that his jab is the key to victory.

      I keep sayin that Cotto could hurt Pacquiao to the body..but let's be honest..Cotto hasn't thrown his body punches since Zab Judah..besides Gomez and Jennings..and let's face it..they were BUMS!..

      As the date gets closer I keep thinking about all the bets I've made offline and I'm thinkin..damn..I'm gonna lose $200 and a Fifth of Patron!..lol..

      Cotto seems very dedicated..but Pacquiao has just been looking beastly lately..even if it was Hatton and DLH..which could very well be the reason I'm feeling this way..he WRECKED them like nobody ever has!..

      I don't know guys...I'm goin for Cotto 100%..but I'm not 100% on a victory...especially when I see **** like Arum planning to have Mayweather-Pacquiao in March 2010...like even he knows Cotto won't be able to hang..I've never felt this way when it comes to Cotto..not even with Mosley or Margarito!..
      Hey, Keep your faith in Cotto my friend. Yea, Manny is definatily a force to be reckoned with, but Cotto, is a natural WW, and a dam good boxer. I still got it 55/45 Cotto imo, but hey, who knows ...anything can happen...cotto could ko many in the 1-2 or 3rd round, or vice-versa....that's what makes this fight so dam compelling.

      2 Very controversial fighters with very compelling backrounds, each has his own contrasting story. Gonna be awesome! don't let the daily roach interviews get to ya. Cotto just prefers a lower profile. He don't like all that attention and glitter that Manny does. Not that that's a bad thing, he deserves it. Why not gloat on it?

        What small guy is Cotto going to fight after this? Kendall Holt? Easy fight to make since Holt is promoted by Top Rank

          Oh, c'mon..Cotto's taken on almost every tough WW in the division, and you still won't give him credit. Cotto hater...lol. I still respect your opinion, bud!

            You know man to be honest, I just got that exact same feeling afew minutes ago after rewatching Hatton-Pac KO part. If you notice, Hatton actually got in too close to throw a jab and Pac countered right over it with that massive left. It's like at any moment if you **** up, Pac can take your head off. I feel like, with Pac's accuracy, he can paint Cotto's face because let's face it, it isn't hard to hit Cotto either. Pac has been harder to hit as of late, but he still is taggable with straight right hands. Even Hatton landed one on Pac(maybe the only punch he landed). I think if Cotto doesn't come in 160lbs, he's as good as Hatton was.

              Cotto is no Hatton. Big mistake to think that. Think Ricky could beat Clottey with one eye if the wieght was close??

                  I said that to break some balls. I know, Cotto has fought the who's who of 147. I'm just saying that I want him to keep it up. If he beats Pac and Arum won't throw him in with Floyd, then he has no choice but to either rematch Mosley or Margarito somewhere down the line.

                    I want Mayweather!!!!!!..

                    I'm almost positive Mayweather wins but I still wanna see what kind of strategy Cotto puts on him..and how effective he can be..

                    I still say Pac gets KO'd pretty easily by Money May..but Cotto can definitely make it interesting..even if he loses...

                      And Cotto has never taken consecutive tough fights until now with Clottey and Pacquiao. That is why I made the post I did, even though I give Cotto props for the good opponents he's fought.
