Pacquiao May Stop Cotto in One Round, Says Roach

[Access_Denied]

No matter how much power Pac has it still will not compare to the power punches Cotto has taken from real WW's. I can not see Pac winning by KO, as much as I hope this fight lives up to the hype Pac knows Cotto is a risk and he will not fight like he normally does and trade bombs. Pac may be pressed to use his footwork alot more than normal trying to avoid Cotto, **** he may even pull a floyd performance. This fight will change Pac's fighting style and he may be going backword more than usual. Pac fans sorry but Pac will not be Pac that night just wait...

It just needs a better undercard and I would consider ordering it like I did with Floyd-May.

Was he fighting himself then? I guess that's what they mean by shadow boxing!

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.

Roach talked just as much crap before the Hatton and De La Hoya fights, but it didn't do Manny any harm. Pacquiao never suffers from over-confidence. He just trains his hardest, follows the game plan, and leaves the rest to God or fate or whatever you want to call it. When asked who would win the Hatton fight, he replied "God knows." Some people mistook that for lack of confidence at the time, but that's always been his attitude, in every fight.

1st round KO?! WTF..No way! Cotto is too smart...

With all of his wins and his toughness not to mention his support from us..hell no! Cotto will definetely hang around all the way to the 8th! My boy will no way get KO'd inside 2 rounds.

Its so annoyin to read how people honestly believe pacman has more power .. More boxing skills than cotto.. Cotto is a good fighter he more accurate than pac and he has more discipline than pac as a fighter in the ring .. When i say discpline I mean cotto doesnt get as much reckless with his punches as pac does and cotto is gonna punish him when pac gets throwin some shots u guys should kno pac gives up some openings when he throws too many .. And why is it when people say pac is a better boxer than cotto they make it sound is if pac is gonna box like sugar ray leonard oh something.. Listen dumbass do ya really think cotto gonna give pac an opening that quick in the fight and get knocked out .. Come on who ya kiddin .. One thing about cotto that many people dont give him credit for is that he is very smart in the ring and kno how to switch things up also he is calm when he fights.. Pacman is a monster for real he has fought the best of best and is gonna remember as incredible warrior .. He has a shot to beat cotto cause anyone can be beat at any given day and he has the ability to pull it off .. But cotto in my book will back pac up cause of his strength .. Probably cause of body shots no one has hit pac with the kind of body shots cotto will land .. Well thats if he doesnt forget to throw them like he forgot in the margarito fight..

Freddie Roach is a comedian

I'm pretty sure Porter wasn't hurt by Pacquiao when he got KD but it was just enough power to make his game plan work.

im sure the knockdown was probably a slip getting into the ring to spar

**** YOU FREDDIE!!! I think he's starting to believe his own hype. Pac is a great fighter, but Cotto is a natural welterweight with good boxing ability, a great jab and a great left hook to the body. Pacman might make it interesting for the first couple of rounds, but cotto will eventually break him down. Cotto is not a weight drained DLH nor is he one dimensional like Ricky. It will be a great fight but i got Cotto by 9th round Tko. WAR COTTO!!!

[joelab75]

so Cotto is bigger and a real welterweight with more power than Manny. i dont want to hear anymore excuses if Manny beat Cotto. i would take a UD or even SD as long as Manny win because if Manny knock Cotto out you guys would come up for another excuse. so i wana see Manny win in 12 rounds and look like he is really a human being than knocking him out then discredit him.

[superchile]

oo please

porter has no real power his kos have come from tomato cans the more time passes by the more vocal roach gets he should concentrate on traning and have no escuses come figth night let manny be the protagonist and not him
