    There isn't a faster fighter in Welter Weight, thats whats makes Manny so unique. Plus Manny carries a good punch too.

    Cotto doesn't have reach advantage and isn't much taller like a Shane or Mayweather. He' s biggest attribute is his power, his condition is questionable.

    Don't you think that if Cotto can knock him out he will?
    Of course he's going for the K.O., but Manny is quicker than Judah and Mosley he's also harder to get because he's so small.

    But you can't hit what you can't touch, not to the point where he can hurt Pac. And if he can't get Pac it be a lot tougher at the end where Manny is still moving and Cottos not.

    Hasn't Cotto look bad at the second half of the fight vs Clottey, Mosley and Margarito?

    But if Cotto can have his hands on the mouse enough of times he'll eat him alive. But you can't blame Cotto if Manny doesn't get K.O., because Cotto will be trying. If Cotto gets PacThe only way he won't K.O. Pac if he's weak from losing weight or he doesn't have the strength at the end of the fight.

      pac was 106 YEARS AGO he also lost multiple times at that weight proving it was probably too light for him he looks very natural at this weight i think the fight will balance on exploiting weaknesses cotto does not block his body well, leaves a huge gap between his gloves, cuts frequently and has not had a decisive victory vs top class opponent in a while. Pac is reckless at times, the smaller opponent and is prone to knockdowns when he meets a fighter with good timing. we will see PAC BY DECISION

        cotto should be able to walk through pac's best shots to land his own which will be the hardest punches pac has ever felt.

        if cotto tries to be cute, he will gas and lose.

              enough with former 106 lber, pac is a legit WW now and that's all that matters. You post this in every thread and I have serious questions of your mental state.

                Its no shame, but you want it to be for obvious reasons.

                pac ain't no WW!!!! that's why I have to keep bring up that he's a former 106 lber!!!

                people think pac is a WW but he's not. he don't belong in that division.

                  he knocked out Hatton the 140 champ in 2 rounds. That's a legit WW.

                  The only reason you say this is to discredit Cotto's win over Pacman. You are already in denial that Cotto beat Mosley when Mosley himself admitted he lost and post-fight he contemplated retirement. UD don't lie.

                    1) 140 lbs is jr WW not WW. get your facts straight

                    2) pac is not a WW and is unproven at WW... that is fact

                    3) mosley beat cotto, check the sig... I got logic and stats to back me up

                    4) link where the words "I lost" came out of mosley's mouth????

                      hatton wasn't a welterweight either don't get too excited, but i think pac looks huge when walking around maybe 155-160 not positive but he can carry weight. sugar ray leonard was definitely not a middleweight but his speed neutralized peole pac makin the same jump
