Pacquiao May Stop Cotto in One Round, Says Roach

[MOTHER DUCKER]

Come on Roach you know this **** aint true, Cotto has been taking lessons from Dirrel on improving his running technique should at least keep him from getting KTFO before the 3rd

[KingTito]

Oh my................ I just shook my head.

[Gabilan]

I do think its bull but dont forget.....every laughed when he said hatton in 3.... (obv he aint knocking cotto out in 1...) but he could knock him out the way he sounds in training...

Still, we shall see what goes down on fight night!

I didn't laugh. I told all my boys my prediction was Hatton in 4. I'm not trying to prop myself up I'm just saying that let's not get revisionist here and say that everybody thought Manny was going to lose; it was just the the most "prominent" and so-called experts. Kind of like all the prominent economists that said that the U.S. was not going to go into recession: Its a herd mentality and its now working inversely in that very few are giving Cotto a chance.

PD: In the house were I saw the fight everybody in the room called it beforehand for Manny same as when he fought DLH (although I think there was one dissenter)

There I sigged it cuz I don't bull****.

If by some strange twist of faith Cotto got KOed in the 1st round, are you willing to post it on youtube for hard evidence since you don't bull****?

LMAO!!!

[gopi11]

I guess you didn't see the post earlier on where someone said Fred was smiling as he said it? It was tongue in cheek. Unfortunately the mother****ers on here fall for it very time.

Roach is doing exactly what he intended to do -- get people talking about the fight. Freddie Roach is brilliant and anyone who disses him is a ****wit. End of ****ing story.

Finally! Someone who's gotten Freddie's drift! Good catch Sam!

When will ppl stop bringing up the Hatton/Pac fight when referrin to the Cotto/Pac fight... I dont understand how you can even put Cotto and Hatton in the same sentence. Im not ignorant, there is a super high risk of Cotto losing, but Cotto would have killed Hatton just like Pac did.

[lcheezy]

basically roach is saying that pac hits harder than clottey and margacheato with or without the plaster. cotto took their punches well and he's going to knock pacs ass out. i just don't think manny can hurt cotto. miguel wins in 7

[pugay_kamay]

IMO, this is a 50/50 fight. Either fighter can pull off the win. Though FOR ME, Cotto has the advantage in size & strength coz he is the naturally bigger & stronger guy.
