Why is he a 2-1 dog then? Cotto is a pretty heavy underdog amidst boxing experts too.

That's because Pacquiao is the P4P #1. That gives him the automatic swing where the betting line is concerned. If Cotto can't beat him given the circumstances, then he's not that good. End of story. And that's no slight to Pacquiao. I just don't know if his punches are going to deter Cotto at this higher weight. I'm sure he's capable of cutting him inside of his mouth and etc.

I can understand it. I think Pac's going to win too. I admit I thought Winky would outwork Hop.

I agree with the Pacquiao part. I don't see what Cotto has that will beat Pacquiao other than being bigger.

Lol, he dedicate his next fight for the typhoon victims and you guys are saying hes not going to try hard for this fight. Yall kidding yourselves

Pac strives on chaos and Cotto thrives on quiet.

and thus, one trains in heart of a typhoon while the other stays in a florida mansion

There are no circumstances. It's all HBO hype to get you thinking. All reports lead to Pac approaching this camp just like he does any other.

If Cotto can't beat a guy with a size disadvantage like this with this many distractions, then I don't know what to say.

I know what to say: cotto should quit if he can't beat a former 106 lber with this many distractions.

i know fighters rarely go full speed in training but cotto already looked slow as ****

I honestly see Cotto as a crappier version of Barerra, with less stamina and skills. Just stronger and bigger.

the term 'outclassed' flashes thru my mind when i think of how the fight plays out now

As much as I dislike Freddie Roach, it seems like if it wasn't for him Manny wouldn't be anywhere near the fighter he is. Manny would be in trouble if Roach wasn't there to keep him in line.

As for Cotto, I think he's going to be ready. His camp seems very calm and there isn't tension that I can see.

Whether this will mean anything or not come fight time, I think it's apparent that Manny Pacquiao's is distracted by his outside the ring status. Some guys are good enough to be able to get away with it, and maybe Pacquiao is one of them. We'll see.
