I mean, he can def... hurt & beat cotto, but for me he has to throw a perfect game, like he did in hes previous two fights.

even that those were 2 big & impressive wins, you have to be fair here.... dealing with cotto is whole different story.

in other words, hes gonna have to throw another perfect game and I really doubt he will be able to do that because hes getting tagged in this one, thats for sure.

How is he gonna react ?

we will see on Nov. 14

nope...

pac has to have a perfect fight and cotto has to make mistakes... if pac fights a perfect fight and cotto fights a perfect fight then pac is screwed. cotto is too big.

Cotto is too versatile for Pacquiao to beat down like Hatton and DLH. Even if Pacquiao hurts Cotto, he will probably get hit with some heavy punches. When Pacquiao looks to finish opponents off, he gets careless and gets hit. Even before Hatton got flattened he was able to hit Pacquiao with a few good punches. Among the differences between Cotto and Hatton, Cotto reacts to pain and punishment a lot better. He doesn't get discouraged, instead he uses a plan B.

The only way is if he catches Cotto early. If not then there's simply no way Cotto will not at least be competitive.

I've watched the De La Hoya fight a few times and he had nothing to offer from the opening bell on aside from a jab. When Manny got ahead Oscar couldn't hit back so it put Pac in that zone where he could do anything he wanted. Hatton was a lot more reckless than Cotto will be and on top of that he offers nothing outside of the pocket to scare Manny either where as Cotto's jab will at least make Manny think.

There's no doubt Cotto is the toughest challenge for Pac since JMM maybe even since the first Morales fight.

actually, hatton is more tenacious than cotto... cotto will run if he needs to, but why would an elite WW run from a former 106 lber?

And being that way got him knocked out faster. I think it's clear Pacquiao has outgrown his 106lb frame, and he's capable of hurting Cotto due to his explosive and unpredictable style. If Cotto backs up when he's hurt, he is venerable, but so is Pacquiao - that's all I am saying.

Key word in that "FORMER"

Why do people always say it as if pacs still a 106 fighter lol

Hes 148 pounds probably fight night...150 even

He has great power for his size, unbelievable speed and crazy calzaghe like stamina....

And is the best in the game right now

No way lil Pac owns Cotto easily. He ain't even a WW.
