    Does Pacqiauo seem a little less focused than usual?

    Is it me or is anyone else worried by all his appearances on chat shows, training camp switches, film making and the tension in his camp between his advisor and the others?? It seems every time they show Cotto on 24/7 hes training hard but Manny seems to be fooling around a bit more than usualand maybe not taking the fight seriously.................

    this is nothing new, as jim lampley put it very accurately "manny pacquiao thrives in visible chaos".

    if pac loses, it's not because of the distractions, but because cotto is the better fighter that night.

      What Im scared of is the fact that he doesn't seem as fast as he was in previous open workouts.

        To be honest Pacquiao and Cotto are two of my favorite fighters,sometimes I wish this fight would have never been made.But hey that's boxing(the nature of the beast)the best will face the best sooner or later.

        Pacquiao/Cotto fans going at it is crazy imo

          The goal of 24/7 is to try to make the underdog look like he can win. Manny is somehow a very big favorite to win, by KO no less, so HBO is trying to convince the casual fans that Manny is beatable.

              Thats exactly what I was about to say. All Pac needs to do is go on the muppets show and ride his Harley down the motorway with Jinky on the back.

              All while eye of the tiger plays.

                no I don't think its an issue.

                he appears to be a person who likes to be kept busy, nothing seems to faze him.

                if you see his face before he fought Hatton, you would have thought he wasn't taking the fight seriously, as he was laughing and joking with people before he walked to the ring.
