Freddie Roach Hints at Strategy To Beat Miguel Cotto

[WhoreUs]

I kinda expect Pacquiao to turn orthodox sometime during the fight and try landing some straight right hands.

no need.

the left is better and easier to land.

As good as Pac is I dont think he belongs at 147lbs. 2much for him

I think welter is too much for Manny. on Nov 14th the world will see that I am correct. if I wasnt correct than Freddie Roach would have let Cotto come in at the limit of 147lbs. I wont knock Manny if he gets beat as a matter of fact I give him props for having huevos & corazon! The fight I really want Pac in is with Juan Manuel Marquez!

[Hopkiller]

The real key is if Manny is able to elude Cotto with his velocity and if Cotto is able to take mannys punches. If Manny shows he really can hurt Cotto early in the fight than Cotto will end up in the losing end. If the fight goes to distance it only favors manny just like it did against De La Hoya. Either fighter can win by K.O. but Manny wins the decision.

Here we go again.....

ROACH HONESTLY THINKS MANNY WILL DANCE AND LOOK GOOD ALL NIGHT DOESN'T HE? HE THINKS MANNY WILL BAFFLE A VETERAN WITH JUST SPEED? HIS POWER WILL MEAN NOTHING TO A TRUE WELTERWEIGHT. THAT'S WHY THERE ARE WEIGHT CLASSES. I FEEL THAT ROACH HAS SOMEWHAT DISREPECTED COTTO WITH HIS ASSURANCE OF VICTORY. I GET THE IMPRESSION HE THINKS THAT COTTO IS 1-DEMENSIONAL OR SOMETHING. ANY1 ELSE AGREE WITH ME? I'LL SAY IT AGAIN. 1 ATTRIBUTE DOESN'T BEAT A REALLY GOOD FIGHTER. MANNY IS FAST BUT Soooooooooo WHAT!! WE ALL KNOW THAT MIGUEL IS SMART AND DOESN'T HAVE A PROBLEM ADJUSTING TO ANYTHING IN THE RING. ASK JUDAH, MOSLEY, PAULIE WHO ALL HAVE FAST HANDS. HERE'S THE BOTTOM LINE.....COTTO ISN'T SLOW. HE HAS GOOD HAND-SPEED. EVERY1 UNDERESTIMATES THAT. HE IS AGILE AND CAN BOX AS WELL IF NOT BETTER THAN MANNY BECAUSE I BELIEVE HE IS SMARTER THAN MANNY. COTTO WILL WIN BY T.K.O/K.O. PERIOD!!! THERE'S NO REASON MANNY SHOULD LAST 12 FULL ROUNDS UNLESS HE REALLY IS GOD LIKE YOU BOGUS FANS MAKE HIM. AND FLOYD SHOULD HAVE STOPPED MARQUEZ AS WELL. HE DIDN'T LOOK SO IMPRESSIVE TO ME. IF THEY WERE THE SAME SIZE, 1 OF THOSE CRACKIN' RIGHTS MARQUEZ LANDED MAY HAVE KNOCKED HIM DOWN. I BELIEVE COTTO AND MANNY HAS A GOOD CHANCE AGAINST FLOYD. WHAT YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT THAT?

[Jay856]

Mosley got outboxed, 8-4 rounds only idiots or Cotto haters say the opposite!

thank you Champbox.... Pull you need to get over it!

LMAO at Cotto being a "veteran" and Manny not being one.

[machotime]

Pacquiao's biggest struggle with Cotto (besides size and power) is that Cotto is masterful at timing and placing punches and Pacman is just not accustomed to getting hit. When he feels that solid punch from a true welter, he will regret that he climbed up to WW.

[Access_Denied]

Pac's strategy will be vey interesting in this fight he might have even 3 feel out rounds. This is new territory for Pacquiao, every swing that comes his way is something he has just never felt.

Pacquiao facial expression in the Hatton fight was exteme nerves in the beginning because Hatton was expected to cause some kind of trouble ( which I thought he might not ) to Pac. Overall Pac will be very different come fight night, as for Cotto which has been in the ring with WW beasts has nothing to lose and may not even have to change from game plan A to B if he times pac's strategy correctly.

I kinda expect Pacquiao to turn orthodox sometime during the fight and try landing some straight right hands.

that is about as likely as Cotto starting out the fight moving backwards.
