Manny Pacquiao Is Dominant In Win Over Miguel Cotto

[bluetuazon]

That 145 Catch weight limit literally drained Cotto. No meaningful body shots for the whole night? That's is bread and butter, and it was non-existant. I do not care what is said, in a championship fight every there are weitht limits already. No more catch-weight.

stop crying biatch....manny owned ur hater ass!!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mayweather can't avoid Pacquiao now. Floyd can not use any excuses to avoid Pac now. I hope he doesn't say that he wants more than 50% because Pac just proved that he is THE TRUTH. I think Floyd has the skills to get the job done but for now I won't bet against the Pinoy. And I'm a Cotto nuthugger saying this. Pac, you were impressive.

I would say the only way Floyd doesn't get a bigger slice is if Pac/Cotto
PPV did more than Floyd/JMM PPV, because as it stands now, Floyd
has done bigger PPV numbers than Manny with all 3 of the same fighters.
Manny fights were more exciting but it's going to ball down to the business
when negotiations start and guaranteed that will be Floyd's stand on
it IF Pac/Cotto didn't beat Floyd/JMM.

I agree that a championship fight should not be fought at a catch weight. But I don't think Cotto was drained. I picked this to be as one-sided as it was, but I had it for Cotto. I have to take my hat off to WAR PAC. He showed he is a true warrior and he can beat a legit WW. I gave him no chance against Cotto, Mosely or Mayweather. But he proved that he can not only hang with the best WW but he can defeat the best. Can't wait to see Mayweather vs Pac. I still favor Money May, but not as positive about it as I once was. Hopefully they can come to terms to make this fight. I say do like Hopkins vs Jones. 60-40 to the winner.

Pacquiao vs. Mayweather is going to be epic.

I hope neither side gets too greedy and ruins it. A 50-50 split is fair.

I agree. I don't think Pac is the issue here. I think it's between Arum and Floyd.

Weight Not an Issue

That 145 Catch weight limit literally drained Cotto. No meaningful body shots for the whole night? That's is bread and butter, and it was non-existant. I do not care what is said, in a championship fight every there are weitht limits already. No more catch-weight.

Bro, Cotto was in excellent shape. My boy went in there and tried his very best. He didn't look drained. Only Cotto knows what those two extra pounds to lose meant to him. That being said I think if fighters don't want to fight Pac at less than 147 they should back the **** off. Pac isn't going to fight anyone heavier than 145. Call it unfair but their has to be a balance. Now if Pac fights Floyd at the 147 limit and wins then that will probably be the most impressive **** I ever would see. But that fight is going to be at 145. After watching Pac smoke my boy last night, I sincerely think Floyd is really concerned now.

Damn Pull, don't hold it back. Just tell em how you really feel.

Cotto is just another over hyped fighter just like Hatton. they are all the same. Pac taste the punches of Cotto and it seems like his mothers spanking to him. Now let all the haters do the talking, coz talk is cheap and so are they.

Big Thumbs down. Shows how much you know.

This was an utterly convincing beat down of Cotto. I thought Manny might be able to win on points but more likely that Miguel would prevail by TKO in the latter rounds using his superior size and power to wear down his smaller opponent. The first round went the way I thought it would for the whole fight.

But sometime after the fifth round Miguel started retreating instead of pressing forward; I knew then that Manny had it in the bag. I couldn't believe it, but I knew it.

Since I was so wrong in this fight, I won't underestimate Manny if he fights Floyd. I still think Floyd is a bad matchup for Manny. I see Floyd picking him apart to a decision victory. One thing for sure: Floyd has no business claiming to be #1 P4P until he fights and beats Manny or Mosely.

For Miguel, there's no shame in losing, especially losing big after leaving everything in the ring. This man is a warrior in every sense of the word, and a class act; I hope he heals quickly and fully to enjoy some relaxing moments with his family again.

To both fighters, my congratulations and a big thank you for a great performance. No matter who we supported, we, the fans, won last night.

my take

Great performance!! But at the same time i think Cotto was made for Pacman.
Hes slow, has very little head movement, and cant throw a solid punch while he is moving. I was still impressed though, thought cotto would have given Pac more problems in the ring.

As for Floyd dont get it twisted, if they fight it would be a much harder fight.
He does not make as much mistakes as the last three fighters that Pac has faced. It would be a fantastic fight, a technician against a Typhoon.

Money wise if pac/cotto sold over a mil then Pac should get the bigger split if not floyd should get the bigger.
