Pacquiao May Stop Cotto in One Round, Says Roach

[GRUSTLER]

Manny is going to put up a good fight but Cotto is going to pressure
and walk him down. Once Manny realizes that he can't really hurt
Cotto and totally out speed him then it's going to be lights up for
Manny. At least, that's how I see the fight happening.

i think Freddie Roach needs to shut up and focus on training instead of making all kinds of prediction and changing his mind all over the place

oh God.....Roach needs to hold on to his horses regarding KOing out Cotto..

[Picozo]

Manny is in trouble if he believes one word Roach says. He better not let it get to his head too much. It could make Manny overconfident. I just know it will be a good fight and let the best man win.

Pacquiao has got way better stamina than Cotto does. That's for sure. I think Pacquiao has got the ability to do damage to Cotto's face just like Judah did. He is prone to getting cut inside his mouth, and I think Manny has got the ability to make Cotto pay for any aggressiveness he tries to use. I'm not going to totally sell Pacquiao short in this fight just because he is the naturally smaller guy. But I am picking Cotto to win the fight. I'm just not all that confident with my pick. Both guys have the ability to hurt each other. That's what's good about this fight. It just needs a better undercard and I would consider ordering it like I did with Floyd-May. The undercard of that fight wasn't spectacular. But it was better than the garbage we are going to get on this one.

Co-Sign!!!

i think ur right cotto is gonna have the size advantage. if he uses it to his benefit he will win. i don't agree that he's better fighter or boxer than manny. skills wize manny has cotto beat. the question for manny is, can he take one or more of cottos power punches. if he can this is going to be one hell of a fight.

Roach talking so much crap its going to give Manny a false sense of confidence. I agree that Manny is a smart fighter but man! Roach needs to shut up. I bet this is going to give Cotto more of an urge to train harder just to prove him wrong and not only that but to definitely come out on top that night. Just my thoughts.

We know Cotto can be hit, hurt and cut BUT he has shown he can come
back and win! Cotto showed that he can take a big punch and give one
back. Manny hasn't truly been hit by anyone in the upper classes as of
yet because of his speed but Cotto is a different fighter than Pacquiao's
last 3 opponents. Cotto has taking some punishment so we know he is
resilient but Pac? On top of that, it takes Manny lots of punches to drop
a fighter with exception of Ricky Hatton BUT Cotto is far better technically
than Hatton. The only thing with Cotto is that he is always open for
the big punch and leaving himself defenseless against Pac could be a
mistake. Al in all, I say Cotto got this.
