Pacquiao May Stop Cotto in One Round, Says Roach

[joelab75]

pac is having his worst camp in quite a while. i don't think roach isn't aware of that

maybe he thinks that cotto is damaged goods and can get KO'd in less than 3 minutes. we'll see

Manny's worst camp still good enough to beat Cotto. i wouldnt bet my money against the pound 4 pound king.

If Roach comes up wit another prediction saying "Manny is gonna stop Cotto in 2 minutes of the first round" then I will definately laugh my ass out.

Common lets be real, the reason that Pac has made it look fluid and crisp is cause his intense training. Even with all the natural gifts he may be blessed with being prepared at this level is essential.

The plan is simple for pac rounds 1-5 swim in and out use speed,rounds 6-? get aggresive and try the KO like the hatton fight.



HOWEVER........



The plan is yet simpler for Cotto.Cut the ring,rapid jab when coming in and use strength.


I dont want to get all technical cuz it doesnt matter.But Cotto is training on a 24x24 ring ring as of today to maximize trap against pac.Way bigger then the one on fight night.Cotto is no where known as a guy who throws an uppercut,however i have a feeling this is going to play a big key.

so how would pacquiao KO a guy in one round by NOT going toe to toe against him?

thought you know how pac fights a bigger guy?? (ODLH) going in and out..in one or two of those going in, pac will go for a big big hit and go out quickly..foot work does it.

yea. i gave cotto major props for continuing, but he still lost that fight to me....

Every commentator agreed that it was very close, and no very close fight can ever be called a robbery.

To beat a top fighter on the cards, in a fight that isn't a robbery, when you're blind in one eye for most of the fight, is a major achievement, because without the use of both eyes, it's impossible to judge distance properly.

When Khan "beat" Barrera, everyone said it was meaningless because Barrera was blind in one eye for most of the fight. The same standards should be applied to this fight. If Cotto had been able to see through both eyes, he would almost certainly have won easily.

I really dont get it. Looks like everyone in the media (including this site) wants Pac to win and are promoting him even more. You NEVER read anything about Cotto's camp. It's all about what Roach said, or his trainers or his advisers. Saying every damn day how great he looks, or how dominating he looks. Everyone is underestimating Cotto! Cotto will be more than ready come fight night and will silence all of his critics. Everyone who is counting on a dominating Pac fight, you got another thing coming. I Know everyone wants Pacquiao vs Mayweather, and are looking pass Cotto, and that's something you JUST DONT DO!!

[Dave Rado]

You NEVER read anything about Cotto's camp. It's all about what Roach said,

You missing the point. Cotto's camp like to keep away from the media. Pac's camp, especially Roach, like to talk to the media. The media simply reflect that fact. There's no conspiracy, it's simply that Roach likes publicity and Cotto doesn't, at least not during training camp.

lol real smart training on 24x24, not on the actual size (and don't actually get used to the actual distance)...that's what you do when you can't get a sparring partner to emulate the speed of the actual opponent..lol
