    Cotto tends to take a tiny step, or more like a half a step when he intends to throw his jab. He tends to dip his left shoulder too when he plans to throw a right for leverage. He pulls back a bit when he's about to throw his vaunted left hook, like trying to built momentum for his punch. I'm hope he's not this slow in real time, or else...

    I'm sure it will be a great fight come Nov. 14, and I got no horse in this race because I really like these 2 boxers. May the best man win!!!
    Based on the bold, it seems you never have seen cotto fight but I know you have seen him because you say he is one of your fav fighters. so I ask you in the fights have you seen do you see him slow? Not compared to manny but in general how do you rate his speed?

      Cotto likes training like this in front of the media, on fight night you will see the true cotto more speed and very agressive.

        All this talk of Cotto being too slow sounds exactly the same as when he was about to fight Mosley and Zab. The thing you guys gotta remember is you don't have to be faster that the speed fighter to beat him. Nobody even mentions the double jab, Cotto's patience in the ring, his ability to adapt. All I hear is "Manny's too fast".

        What's going to happen when Cotto neutralizes Pac's speed? I guarantee you Pac will revert to brawling while Cotto will take advantage and break Pacquiao down.

        This is the toughest fight of Manny's career, and some of you are treating it like he's on the level of Hatton or Oscar to be embarrassed. You're setting yourselves up for a similar night like Cotto fans ended up having at the end of the Margarito fight. Watch...
        Shut up Cotto ass kisser have 1 of these and call me in the morning.

          Cotto looked slow vs Clottey

          PERIOD

          People talk about the Mosley and Zab fights, but that was prePlaster beating Cotto.. He isnt the same. His best days are behind him. You can thank that beast Margo for that

            yeah, he looked so slow that he put him in his ass (for the 1st time in his career i might add) in less than 3 minutes with a JAB

              this could honestly be a dangerous fight for pacquiao, career and health wise. cotto is just too heavy and too much for little manny pacquiao. as fan of the sport i hope it does end early so the punishment is not as damaging. i'd love to see pacquiao back in the sport fighting in a lower weight class where he belongs.

                pac aint so little anymore, and pac is used to taking bigger shots, have you seen his fight against the opbf champ, pac was a stick thin teen taking on a tank, that night he used his footwork and boxing ability to win, i think he will do the same against cotto.

                  Those left hooks look deadly, Manny won't be able to take to many of those.

                      Lol at people trying to break down and analyze a ****ing mitt routine. Everyone does the mitts differently. Does it look like Floyds mitt routine is productive at all? Well it works wonders for him. Everybody does things differently in camp. Your average amateur Welterweight boxer will have a more complete mitt routine than Cotto does, but that doesn't really mean **** in the ring does it?

                      Manny just walks around and hits the heavy bag with arm punches starting from his chest. A novice would be scolded for such a thing, but it works for Pac.

                      These guys have been at this for years. It's down to a science at this point. They do everything for a reason. The only thing I was wondering is if Cotto has any kind of HIIT workout at all and 24/7 answered my question when I saw him sprinting 400's.
