    the moment i saw pacquiao in RD 4 go to the ropes, i thought it was obvious what he was doing. he was motioning w/ his hands to cotto as if he wanted him to hit him MORE. pacquiao had every chance escaping the ropes, but as previously mentioned, he does that during sparring. it caught my attention right away and my jaw ****ing dropped on how ballsy he was.

He does it all the time, e****aly before coming to WW. Then he fires back after that
      that's a pretty crappy signature move. pac's signature move is to ko opponents.

        freak, yeah i had my whole family and some friends over to watch at my house and we were all shouting 'Alis sa ropes Manny!' (Get off the ropes Manny!)... That **** was scary... At first I thought it was part of Roach and Manny's strategy to get Cotto off guard and catch him with a counter right hook, but then I heard Roach telling Buboy to tell Manny to avoid being cornered on the ropes, I said Manny is ****in' insane and is taking too many chances. Glad to know we were not the only one getting a heart attack with it.

            simple and you said it yourself... floyd does it all the time, it is his style that's why it is expected from him... as for pac, it seems so special because he does not get pinned to the ropes often, let alone attacked to the body several times and still standing in front of the fighter...

            this is pac's way of making the fight more interesting for the fight fans... not like floyd, if he gets hit, he retreats and dances away for god knows how long... pac loves taking chances, floyd loves to think he is taking chances but he actually isn't... plain and simple...
