Miguel Cotto-Manny Pacquiao: 24/7 Pt. 1 Reviewed

[George W Bush]

[SIZE="4"]I did notice that Hatton fought Pacquiao soooooo wrong. I could not believe how open he left himself. Even I would've put him down

Shut the **** up.

imo, it's partly because of lack of good sound tracks.

are you reading this 24/7 people?

and next time don't put 24/7 before the fighters names, it's always about the fighers.

This is a cultural appreciation. I, for one, found the soundtrack to be quite good. These fighters shouldn't have American music in their backgrounds... and Cotto, for example, listens to a lot of "salsa gorda" (old school salsa) and this was perfect... the Aguanile of Hector Lavoe while they presented him was a nice touch.

I liked the episode. I know it's not flashy like those of Mayweather, but it seems to me more culturally aware and revealing.

So Floyd is somewhat more likely a Celebrity than a Boxer?

no man....mayweather is a joke...thats why the people find him entertaining outside of the ring....

[bluetuazon]

Yeah is pretty bad when floyd's 24/7 episodes are more entretaining that his fights! I'll watch a Pacquiao or Cotto fight any day over Mayweathers!!!

amen brother!!!

[crold1]

He's more important than Cotto, that's what HBO thinks .

Perhaps, But it was notable that "P4P" discussion was highly curbed back with Mayweather now active again. HBO likes to tell the audience who has that spot and might be trying again.

[Boss Don]

LOL. "Pacquiao acts like a geek."

And yes, Mayweather's 24/7s might be exciting, but his fights usually aren't. And that's because he doesn't like to take too many chances inside the ring and he doesn't care about entertaining you, which is respectable because he does what he needs to do to win. You'll never see him pulling an Erik Morales, switching southpaw in the last round just to entertain the fans. But yeah, Pac-Cotto 24/7 might not have been filled with flash and excitement, but their fight will.

i agree with you Pac-Cotto will be a entertaining fight but when your a Mayweather fan you start to like how Floyd fights because he is so skilled vs guys just fighting all wild but your right wth everything you said

[PRacrePerAcre1]

Don't let Cotto's limited English knowledge confuse you. He has said over and over again everywhere that he will win on Nov. 14th. What you might have seen is a person gathering his thoughts while he speaks and looking for the proper way to say, because he does not dominate nor speaks the English language fluently.

Excellent post and I agree with you fully. Great way of wording it btw.

[Puya]

Is it just me, or is Cotto extremely boring in this thing? Seriously. Just having dinner with your family and getting tats on your arm? All those distractions in Pac's camp like the typhoon and that altercation between Gacal and Kontz is what made the show interesting.

The same way I find it veeeery boring when Floyd is talking smack and showing of his money mansion and what the **** ever. Untill they show him training.

so it goes both ways. ****** hater

nice to know you heard some nice cultural Puerto Rican(?) music on 24/7. what about other viewers who cannot relate to that kind of music? i believe large percentage of viewers are americans or U.S based.

[prsi]

this just means that cotto is underestimating pac.......tsk tsk...

Just because a fighter says that he will end up with a W on fight night doesn't mean that he is underestimating his opponent.

On the contrary, Cotto and his trainer has said that Cotto is in his best shape ever because of the hard and planification they have put for thus fight.
They are well aware of the tough warrior they have in front of them and Cotto needs to bring his A game along with his best condition in order to defeat Pacquiao.

If Cotto stays quiet and just says it will be a great fight, Cotto has no confidence.

If Cotto says he at his best and will win on Nov. 14, Cotto is underestimating Pacman.
