    I hope like Pacquiao, Mayweather picks a "wrong" opponent every fight! It's called balls!

      Manny Pacquiao is not taking Cotto litely. In fact, in yesterday's media blast, he said that Cotto is his biggest challenge so far and when asked if he'll KO Cotto, he said his mouth is zipped (meaning he cannot predict). It's just Roach who's predicting this or that and those pachuggers who know nothing about the sport. I believe it's a 50:50 chance for both fighters but if it goes the full 12 rounds, i believe Pac has the edge. Power VS Speed, we'll know on the 14th of November.
      You give Paq the edge? What edge? What edge can you give Paq here? Im very curious to hear this...

      Who has more wins at Welterweight? Who has fought the better opposition at Welterweight? Who has the better chin at welterweight? Who has more KO's at Welterweight? Who has fought and overcome more diverse styles over the last 3 years at Welterweight?

      I tell you what.. I've seen Miguel fight runners, slick boxers, volume punchers, speedsters, brawlers etc. Add in his amateur and Olympic experience and you start to get the picture that there really isn't a style he hasn't fought and defeated yet.

      I dont need to mention how blown up the wins over DLH and Hatton are.

      Of course this is boxing and anything can happen but to say that Paq has any edge at all (beside being a betting favorite) is just ridiculous.

        Manny has no business fighting for a welterweight 147lb title at 145lbs....but he does smile a lot so we should be lenient. Heck he is so nice we should just create a catch weight title belt for him too.

                For those people which do not believe in Cotto, just let me tell you how this going to end. Cotto will KO Pacquiao 6-8 rounds.

                  Miguel Cotto : "Pacquiao Picked The Wrong Opponent, Fighter"

                  If so, Cotto should have decline the fight. It ain't right if one knows beforehand that it's wrong. In a related matter, it seems Cotto shows a more concern look than Pacquiao if he's bigger & a better puncher. Like what Pacquaio said, may the best fighter wins & I guess both camps are talking a lot & not one over the other ....

                      None of that really matters, because this is Manny's first REAL fight at WW. You can compare the fighters they've faced, but not just in the WW division. Manny has massive edge in foot and hand speed, angles, agility and head movement. To say he has no advantage is just idiotic because no matter how overrated Hatton was, or how old and dried up DLH was, Manny SMASHED both of those guys. Yes, they were crappy opposition which is why asking Manny how he can deal with a true WW is a very valid point. But nothing should be taking away from his victories and you can't compare what they've in each one WW because Manny simply hasn't fought enough.
