      pac will need that kind of sparring because is quick punches are going to bounce right off cotto.pac can't hit harder than clottey nor margacheato. cotto will jab forward right through pac guard and beat that body something terrible. pac has been stopped before on body shots.

            Pacquiao can do sparring with everybody in the world, the only different here is when he goes on November 14 will be against Cotto. You will see the difference from sparing against Escobar and Castillo and a real fight with the best welter weight in the world miguel angel Cotto.

                  Pac can fight with all of these rookie professional boxers all he wants but once he feels the punch and power of a true welter weight, it's a wrap. I was watching yesterday the Pacquiao's greatest hits and Cotto's greatest hits on HBO On Demand. I must say that Pacquiao is one little fire cracker. Manny showed to be very fast, doesn't let up and no doubt a warrior but when I saw Cotto's fights, it was a whole different level of fighting.

                  Cotto has been in wars with true hard hitting tough welter weight champions. The degree of power shown in those exchanges in Cotto's fights is bar none nothing Pacquiao has even experienced. Cotto will get tagged by Manny, there's no question about that but Cotto is a fighter that is willing to take to or three shots in order for him to land one of his power flush punch. If Quintana, Judah, Corley, Alfonso Gomez among others fighters weren't able to take Cotto's body punches; what makes us think that Manny will be able to take them.

                  Let's be honest here. Manny has manny physical gifts but he is still human. Even Paulie Malignaggi said that Cotto hits very hard and it will be extremely difficult for Manny to be able to withstand the punishment. All I know is that people are way too blinded by Pacquiao's last three fights and they are seriously underestimating Cotto.

                  It's going to be a rude wakening for all of you Pacquiao fans. I know you love the guy and all but this little dude is getting Knocked out. Am sorry. I know your hating me right now and think that I am a Cotto nuthugger or something but this is the truth. Keep it real...
