    You can't really blame the public. He's put up so many good performances, lately.

        odds are developed by the fighter who the majority are betting on.

          Diaz? A nothing fight the easiest fight at 135
          Oscar? Past his prime like 4-5 fights even before fighting Pac and coming in at 147 he was a damn Zombie.
          Hatton again past it, chin was mush, training problems etc

          Now Pac steps up too 147 again vs the guy who has faced LOADS off top WW Mosley, Margo, Clottey, Quintana, Jennings, Judah etc and has a good record with only 1 loss, which some would debate. He fits the weight perfectly too, Pac's last real competitive fight he really lost also.

          Cotto has also handled Judah/Mosley the latter of which is a far better boxer then Pac will ever be and punches way harder but is still the underdog? Pac also got ruffled by the 2 punches Hatton threw if you go watch the fight. Unlike Hatton, Hoya, Cotto wont be chasing him around the ring neither, Cotto can quite easily fight this not being the aggressor and counter Pac all night with his timing, much like Marquez did.

          Just dont understand the odds for this fight or the general feeling on this board, Pac wont win this, to say he might KO Cotto is laughable too, Mosley landed like 40%+ power shots on him ffs. Cotto by UD/KO most likely come the 14th
          cause people are dumb and don't think size matters.

          the only reason floyd dominated jmm was because of weight. U'd think people would understand this by now

              Gosh people, hatton wasn't out of his prime, pacman just figured him out way quicker than mayweather.

              and how is diaz an easy fight?

                  Asians have a ******** problem and aslong as they continue to bet big on Pac the odds will remain the same they havent changed since the fight was announced which is kinda rare so if youre smart you'll take advantage of that and make a profit off Cotto.
