3 BIG REASONS WHY COTTO CAN'T BEAT PACQUIAO

The reasons why I don't think Miguel Cotto will beat Manny Pacquiao...

I'd like to start this thread by first saying that i'm the bigger fan of Miguel Cotto and he is a top world class fighter , but after watching his last fight even though he showed at lot of heart and beat a tough opponent, I really don't see how hes going to beat Manny Pacquiao, there is a number of reason for this.

1. Cotto's stamina.

This is the thing that worrys me the most and the main reason that I favour Manny, I really don't think he has the stamina to keep up with Pacquiao he really looked gased in a lot parts of the Clottey fight, luckily for him, Clottey just stalked Cotto without putting to much pressure on him, but unfortunely for Cotto, Manny will fight at a much faster pace and will not slow down or tire.

2. Mannys awkward southpaw style.

This is going to be the one of hardest things for Cotto to overcome because there's no fighter today that can uses the southpaw stance to his avantage as good as Pacquiao can, plus his punches come from multiple angles that are very difficult to see coming.

3. Mannys speed and combinations.

This is what for me what makes me favour Manny to win this fight, this is where I think Cotto cannot match or find the answer to, I believe Manny is going to be the boxers in this fight and that is why Manny will win because of his advantages in hand and foot speed and once Manny gets into his rythm and starts letting his combinations go, I don't think Cotto will be able to keep up with him.

I like to finish off by saying that even though I can not see Cotto winning this fight I do believe it will be a competive and exciting fight but that Manny will win decisively in the end, I see the referee stepping in between rounds 9 - 11 .

I would also like to say that even though I believe Manny will win I do not think that he is as instructable as some believe and that this is the fight that we will see if Manny can truly take a welterweights punch because we doe not know yet, because he has not been hit with anything damaging since he has moved up.

Also this is the fight where Miguel Cotto can prove he's a great fighter this is his chance and believe his last chance to become a major superstar and I think he knows it and for that reason I believe he will be in the best shape of his career and will give it everything he has, that will help him prove me wrong but I don't see it being enough, I hope I'm wrong.

about cotto's stamina did you forget that he has the south african guy new to his camp as his fitness trainer? im sure he will have a huge impact on this fight. i think cottos chin has improved greatly as well for him to recieve that many punches that he did from margarito and clottey who both probably hit way harder than pac i think cotto can take some of those pitty pats

I think Pacquiao is going to break Cotto down with his boxing skill. I know Cotto is big and strong but I don't think Pacquiao is going to stand and trade with Cotto. Roach is just B****ing with us. Pacquiao is just going to box Cotto ears off because he's faster and quicker. As long as Cotto can't catch Pacquiao, Pacquiao is going to get the nod.

cotto's stamina is his only liability. pac is too small to hurt cotto.
