Miguel Cotto Works Out in Las Vegas For Pacquiao

[Pullcounter]

Your signature is the dumbest I've ever seen. Cotto ended the 10th round with several statement punches, despite everything Mosley had accomplished in the 9th and 10th in his mini-comeback. Then Cotto dominated Mosley in the 11th. That round wasn't even close. Round 12 was a snoozer, as niether fighter did anything except dance around one another until the bell rang. Proof that not only did Miguel not wane down the stretch, but also that you didn't watch the fight, you just listened to what the sound-bytes told you afterwards.

He was well ahead, and only needed to do enough to make a statement in the last round well humming on cruise-control. It was a close fight, but no one with a brain denies Cotto the victory. He neutralized Mosley's speed, walked through his power, and simply out-boxed him for 8 of the 12 rounds (at least).



This post is made of win; win and candy.

this post was too long so i just skimmed it.

cotto didn't beat mosley. mosley got robbed. whatever you say, it don't change the fact that boxing is scored with emphasis on clean effective punching. the point is much more complex than this but if i had to reduce it down to a bumpersticker, I'd say: mosley's power punches > cotto's jab.

mosley got robbed in MSG.

I can copy paste too. See my post below.


You guys just make me laugh and are some times pathetic.
Base on your theory of "Shame" Marvin Hagler who was stronger and heavier and had a small reach advantage against Sugar Ray Leonard is a "Shame" for boxing not only because he couldn't ko Leonard but he lost to a man that came from a 3 year retirement where he had fought at 150 and went to 160 to fight Hagler for the 1st time.

Is Shane Mosley also a "Shame" for boxing because he couldn't ko a 2" smaller boxer while having more power and speed and a 7" reach advantage when he fought pricesly Miguel Cotto and not only that he lost to him also????

Most recently is PBF Floyd a "Shame" for boxing be cause he couldn't KO JMM who is 1" smaller has 5" reach disadvantage, weighed in 4lbs lighter than PBF (142 JMM vs 146 PBF) for the fight and was his 1st fight over 135 lbs in his career not to mention that PBF has more boxing skills, is faster, has more defense and is stonger than JMM????

Like these examples are plenty in boxing history. The fact is that Cotto will be heavier and stronger but Pacman will be faster, always has more stamina, movements and a much better corner which will give him a advantage in possible strategies, while they will be sharing the same reach and will have only a 1/2" height disadvantage. It will be up to which of these great warriors can take impose their advantages while neutralizing the advantage of their opponent. That is what boxing is all about!!!

With this said and the playing field leveled because of the advantages from both sides, why should it be a "SHAME" if Cotto loses or doesn't ko the current P4P king under these circumstances??

Like I said before you guys make this sound like this is a peice of cake fight for Cotto or it is David vs Goliath.
I'm rooting for Cotto but I give Pacman a great chance for victory bacause he does have the size, speed, stamina, movement to be in the ring with Cotto. Same chance of victory that Leonard had against Hagler and Cotto had against Mosley.

"SHAME" on you guys for not beleiving that

also way too long, I just skimmed it.

1) Leonard was too small for hagler, that's why he ran for most of the fight. if they fought toe to toe, SRL would've gotten smashed. the problem is pac ain't no SRL, so this doesn't apply to the situation.

2) Cotto is as big as Mosley... that is, they are basically the same size, ie they are full blown WWs.

in conclusion, cotto is too big for pac and if he can't KO a former 106 lber he should quit boxing. cotto embarasses the island and stains his own honor if he can't KO a smaller boxer who has no business in his division.

Why is weight such a big deal to you?

Cotto would have to be able to hit Pac and Pac is one of the fastest fighter ever. What happen to De La Hoya? He couldn't hit him, Pac was too fast for him. The guy is a former lightweight and has moved up and is stilled ripped .

Pac is very small the moment he ducks he will be hard to get. He's like a mouse and like you mention Cotto a bigger dude so it won't be easy for him to catch up to Pac. Sure Cotto can knock him out, no doubts that, but Pac will be moving and swinging.

Cotto might be as big as Mosley, but he's a smaller dude and he has the same reach advantage as Pac. So he doesn't have the reach to help him catch up to Pac and he doesn't have the height to make himself a harder target like De La Hoya or even Mosley or Mayweather for that matter.

Mosley, Mayweather are taller than Cotto and have much better reach. Plus they have enough power to hurt Pac. Those advantages were some of the reason Pac picked Cotto over Mosley. I know you don't like Cotto, but be real and stop hating.

Pathetic as usual. 95% of the boxing experts agrees that even though it was a close fight Cotto won the fight and obvilously you not one of the 95% that think he won neither an expert for that matter. By losing to a smaller Cotto, doesn't necessary means he needed to retire did it??? (following you line if thought for Cotto-Pacman) And yes Cotto is smaller than Mosley (continued below)

Leonard came from a 3 year retirement to fight a heavier and more powerful boxer at a weight that he had never fougt in his career. Doesn't matter the startegy that he choose to win the fact is that he did and convincingly.

2) Cotto is as big as Mosley... that is, they are basically the same size, ie they are full blown WWs.

in conclusion, cotto is too big for pac and if he can't KO a former 106 lber he should quit boxing. cotto embarasses the island and stains his own honor if he can't KO a smaller boxer who has no business in his division.

Cotto is not as big as Mosley, Mosley Physically has more height an reach advantage over Cotto, than what Cotto will ever have against Pacman and Mosley has made a carreer (7 fights) at 154 and has fought their since 2003. So he is more heavier than Cotto also.

The other pathetic statement from you is bringing a weight (106 lber) issue from 1995 when even Cotto was at that weight by that time. You are just ridiculous and the only stain and embarrassment that I see on this post is how you do it to your own credibility. And it's a shame because sometimes you show glimpse of boxing knowledge.

I can find post on the website on which you say that Pacman will cut and beat up Cotto and other post saying that Cotto will walk thru Pacman punches and be the winner of the fight because his to big.

Is it one or the other??? Or are you just saying boths to come and brag that you were right after the fight. Like I said "IT'S PATHETIC"

Your sig tells us what kinds of dumb post we can expect from your dumbass.

Im impressed as how fast Miguel has aged. He does look like the young lion he used to be anymore.

what? your grammer is confusing

You're ******. Cotto clearly beat Mosley and Pac was 16 when he was at 106. Pacquiao is clearly the best in the world today and has fought at 140-147 pounds before. It's very clear to everyone you just want to discredit everything Cotto does and come Nov 15 you're going to be the first one crying why Cotto does not deserve any credit.
