    But keep in mind dude...I'm actually a fan of Cotto. I know its heresy to say on this particular board, but I'm not much of a Pacquiao fan these days. I definitely respect his skill and all that, but I don't have a rooting interest in him. Just trying to call it like I see it.
    your a fan of cotto but you dont have him no where in your top 10 favorite list?
    hmmm.

      Yeah Cotto is naturally bigger, but not nearly as much bigger as I think is commonly believed. Pacquiao is just as much of a warrior as Cotto and is probably more skilled; I know the Pacman is definitely faster and versatile.

      Again, I'm really surprised that so many people think this will be competitive more than maybe 5 or 6 rounds. I, personally, think that it'll be good for a few rounds then one-sided until either Pacquiao stops him or takes a one-sided decision. Just my two cents...
      I guess the fact that Clottey was 170 pounds of muscle and had a tight defense had nothing to do with it??

      What punches have Pac taken above 135 Pounds that makes you think he can takes Cottos????

      I'll wait.

            Are you saying that you believe that Cotto will KO Pacquiao? Because if that's what you think just say it.

            Yes, I think Pacquiao can take Cotto's punch. If I'm wrong then I'm wrong.

                I'm promoting a youth movement.

                But more importantly, why do you care? Get a life. Maybe I'm a fan of dozens or even hundreds of boxers...put that in your pipe and smoke it...

                      I am surprised most lads are overlooking Cotto in favor of a potential Manny-PBF showdown. Cotto is not done as a fighter and may surprise many.
