De La Hoya Switches Pick "Cotto Will Beat Pacquiao"

[blaze778]

I believe after Pacman land some of his best shots early and Cotto keeps coming, Manny will start to get discourage. In my opinion Cotto makes adjustments in fights better than most fighters. I believe going down the stretch Cotto will breakdown Pacman. Cotto has a very good defense and a great chin. Once Pacman starts to mix it up and I believe he will because of his adrenline flowing and Millions watching. He will start to stay in front of Cotto just long enough to get HIT! Once that happens Pacman will be a different fighter. That's when he will start to weaken and fall apart. I don't see this fight going 12 Rds. Cotto will get stronger as the fight goes on. Freddie Roach said earlier on a post that he predict Pacman with a KO by rd. 9
If I had to put money on this fight I would predict it the other way. Cotto over Pacman with a KO in 9. Just my opinion! It's going to be a good fight.

Good opinion. I am a fan of both guys, but I am leaning towards Pac. But your scenario is very likely if Pac doesn't fight smart. The things is Pac always gets stronger as the fight goes on and Cotto always fades in the later rounds. The only way I see Cotto getting stronger as the fight goes on is if Pac gets that much weaker and doesn't put enough pressure on Cotto to wear him out.

I don't respect Oscar's opinion.

AHHHH ****.... DeLA Hoya done squeezed lemon on Cottos camp.... i thought Cotto was gonna win.... Now that De La Hoya said that... im going for Pacman..

Maybe you're ODLH ex lover that's why you hate him much!

I was once a De la Hoya fan, but I never thought I would lose more respect for De la Hoya after he retired. First he ducks Maragarito and cherry picks a fighter 3 divisions smaller. Then he claims to be in the best shape of his life and was gonna knock out Pac. He gets destroyed and quits (let's not sugar-coat it) in the fight and then he says he didn't feel Pac's power. Then he says he knew he was gonna lose the fight anyways and he felt so weak and unhealthy. Then he says Hatton would beat Pac. Now Cotto is gonna beat him?

Get over it. Oscar has way too much pride and ego to see things the way they are. Even Hopkins gives Pac credit. Pac beat Oscar's ass and not only did he make him quit in the fight, but he quit boxing for good. I know he was past his prime and weight drained, but he put himself in that situation and made the fight under his terms. If you discredit a fighter who beat you, you only discredit yourself because you lost to him.

Pac-Man was about to KNOCK YOUR AZZ OUT, instead of letting that happen, you QUIT on your STOOL!!!!!!!! AZZ HOLE

I thin Juan Manuel Lopez can make De la Hoya quit. way past his prime , no strength , **** , Ill make de la hoya quit , at 160 lol

ODLH thought he was gonna be the bigger man and was gonna run over Pac. Suprise, Suprise, he was smaller and got ran over. He didn't have a plan B cause he underestimated him

oscar talks rubbish

[prsi]

I have always said it, whether the predictions are in favor or against Cotto or Pacman for that matter. PREDICTIONS ARE JUST PREDICTIONS.

Yes, everbody is entitled to their opinion and to analyze the fight and we are entitled to express our opinion of the preditcition if we choose to, but what really gives me a laugh is how many people supported DLH opinion when he was in favor of PACMAN and now that DLH changed his opinion, those same posters are beating DLH up and talking trash.

Don't worry people, doesn't matter who predicts what, we will all find out who wins on NOV, 14th.

[I am JUGGERNAUT]

DE LA HOYA forgot that he got knocked out by PACMAN.
