Not Wowed by Pac's speed but impressed by his.......

Cotto did not do much damage caus the contract only stated he could rehidrate to 154, thats why he didnt look as beefy like when he fought Shane & thats why he couldnt take Mannys shots. Got that info from a PRbestpromotions here in PR

for real tho.... i dont think any manager or wieght restriction had anything to do with that outcome. Cotto was just second best that night. Pacman is to the pinnoys what Trinidad was to all boricua's! That dude just has explosive gloves.

Strength, power, stamina and durability. This is not a dig at Pac I was really impressed with him on a whole but his speed was not really a big factor for the first few rounds, Cotto was right there with him.

I don't think on this level his speed is going to kill the top guys (initially at least). It is his ability to carry the speed in the later rounds and durability, work rate and stamina.

I think if Pac fights PBF he will best be served getting into a fight with PBF. PBF has good stamina also but.....he also Always dictates the pace of the fight and his pace is much slower than Pac's usual pace.

Should be very interesting.

Cotto hung in there for very little. Once Pac made the proper adjustment the fight was over. I also was impressed with his strength and durability but I was equally impressed with his speed. To go up in weight and have that type of speed advantage still was very, very impressive.

If I had to choose one among pacs strengths it would be his volume punching

Pacman was impressive in every aspect to me!!I'm still a little shocked by the ease in which he demolished the #2 welterweight in the world!!

That's what so great about this fight... I think Pac will outwork PBF, just like DelaHoya-Mayweather in the 1st half of the fight and you can't question Pac's stamina.. intersting...

Cotto did hurt Manny, Manny said it himself. I guarantee that must have affected Manny's speed besides the fact that Manny's knees was injured as well. Either way, Manny can't be and shouldn't be taking punches like that from Cotto or any other WW. He got lucky that Cotto didn't connected properly on most of those power punches. I am surprised and impressed that Manny was able to take those body hits from Cotto.
