Freddie Roach keeps saying that size wont be a factor in this fight but Pacquiao is now facing a guy who has fought and beat Shane Mosley, who is obviously alot bigger than Pacquiao.

I think whether or not Cotto can win this fight depends on how much he has left after that devastating loss to Margarito. If he's still the fighter who beat Mosley then I think he's gonna give Pac hell and could very well come out with the win.

would you give Floyd a chance aganst Cotto?

Yeah, because Cotto would've taken an extra 2 rounds of punishment had he somehow managed to survive the latter stages of the fight.

Well I understand he'd have a chance but do you think he'd be the favourite for the fight if Cotto was still unbeaten?

The fight wouldn't even happen if Cotto was undefeated. Thats the ****ing truth, only fools hide the truth. The truth is that is the mother ****ing truth.

No, probably not but it's hard to say, I mean would Cotto have looked the way he looked against Clottey if he had beaten Margarito? Would he have even fought Clottey had he beaten Margarito? Maybe he would've been the one who fought Mosley and he might have been the one who lost to Mosley, or he would've rematched Margarito and might have won or lost. The fight with Pacquiao might not be happening at all if he had beaten Margarito so it's impossible to say.

If Margarito din't cheat Cotto would have gotten the De La Hoya fight insted of Pacquiao and probably the Hatton fight also. Pacquiao would still be at 135 fighting bums like Diaz.

Cotto was well and truly found out against Margarito, regardless of the gloves! He struggled against Ricardo Torres, and did well to beat Paulie M. Mosley doesnt have half the speed of the Pacman! Does Manny really have the power against Cotto? Well just ask Ricky Hatton! Manny to win inside six rounds!!

"Undefeated fighters are unbeatable"- most boxing fan's thinking......so yeah he would be the favorite though he really should be now.
