      All i read everyday is people trying to find something that means Cotto is in trouble. I think the fight itself its enough trouble for both figthers.

      Its ridiculous the way they are trying to motivate Pacman, it hurts his image big time.
      Cuz next thing u read its " Cotto was eating hot dogs wich means less power in his punches, Pac is eating lion meat so Pac is gonna kill him"

      Dont Underastimate Cotto people, he fougth judah,mosley,margo,clottey
      u wont see that kind of figthers with power,size,speed,experience in Pacmans record. can u imagine Pacman beating clottey,margarito or mosley?

      All the world is saying Pac kills Cotto...Im not saying Cotto will kill Pac but something tells me he can


      WOW! You're good!

      This article is about Cotto and you managed to twist it into a Pacquiao praise release! Pacman doesn't need any uplifting news to get himself motivated, you should know that by now...

        so Nestor Rocha
        David Rodela

        are world beaters eh?

          "its a shame you give great work and they send you home. Check me on youtube on my sparring & you can see I don't play"

          Maybe he was "playing" to much?

            I think its more of a case in which the sparring partner did enough for that week, or just wasnt the right sparring to prepare for Pacquiao.

              Whoooo thank god.

              Basically confirmation, that he wasn't beating Cotto around the ring. If he did, he would have said so.

                he ll get fined a ridiulous amount of money though!!!!
                Wouldn't it be bull**** if Pacquiao and Roach called the fight off just for Cotto coming in at 146? I don't think they'd do that though. I'm still rooting for Pac to beat Cotto even though Manny has done some things to get on my nerves where acting like a primaddona is concerned. The weigh-in will be a mirror image of Floyd and JMM except for height. What I mean is it's impossible for me to root for a guy who is going to blow up to Middleweight outweighing another fighter by 10 pounds. Cotto is going to be Goliath and Pacquiao is going to be David.

                  Thanks guys for your responses. That's exactly what I thought but being that these organizations change their rules just when it's convenient to them, I did had my doubts.

                  I mean, it would be ridiculous to lose the title because of weight when you are actually within the weight limit of the title.

                    I understand that Cotto will be heavier and will probably have more power but I don't see this as David and Goliath. Pacman has lots of advantages that practically compensate and level the playing field for this fight, David had only one one lucky shot to KO Goliath, Pacman will have speed, stamina, movements, a better corner as advantages for his fight against Cotto. Pacman will have more than one lucky punch to defeat Cotto and his possibilities are very good, even though I'm rooting for Cotto to beat Pacman
