Cotto is better than Mayweather. PAC will surely beat Floyd's arse!

[Michael Hall]

Who gives a *** what Freddie Roach said? Is he GOD? You "*******s" are making yourselves look real insecure regarding the outcome of Pac-Mayweather.

Check this out *******s (s8 from freddie's wiki page):

He received mixed criticism from the MMA community after commenting on current WAMMA Heavyweight Champion Fedor Emelianenko's boxing skills. He claimed that Fedor would be "killed" by his client Andrei Arlovski during their fight at Affliction: Day of Reckoning, should the champion remain standing. On January 24, Fedor knocked out Arlovski with an overhand right in the first round. Roach later criticized Fedor in saying "he just got lucky, I think."

So if Mayweather ko's Pac, I guess we'll already know what Freddie will say.

its the easiest fight for Pac yet Roach wanted a LONG time to prepare for it?

Its amazing how ya'll wasn't listening to Roach, now ya'll back to listening to Roach. I don't get it.

That was the original plan when the fight was thought to be held on May. But when it was pushed back to March, Roach said he'll have no problem with it and PAC asked for his advice and they all agreed to fight earlier even with a shorter camp.

Why not? Cotto beat Judah more convincingly than Floyd did. Cotto beat Mosley that Floyd has been avoiding for dear life. What makes Floyd a better fighter, please don't tell me because of his undefeated record, because i'll just pull out the Chavez Jr. argument as well.

Floyd has titles in five divisions.
Floyd has never been legit knocked down in a fight.
Floyd has more wins against champions and former champions.
Floyd has been named Ring magazine fighter of the year twice.
Floyd was the undisputed P4P king before retiring.
Floyd has won 6 championship belts, Cotto has won 3.
Floyd has a bronze medal from the Olympics and was robbed of a gold, Cotto was eliminated in the first round.

Shall I continue?

If we all used the logic you and TS are using, Danny Green is a better fighter than Joe Calzaghe. I mean, Danny Green KOed Roy Jones in 1 round, whereas Calzaghe needed all 12 rounds. It's just dumb logic.

camps are usually 8 weeks anyway.

Roach is not god to Pacfans. Although he could easily be our greatest prophet. He he he...

That's true Fedor just got lucky, ask any MMA fans here. Andre was putting on a boxing clinic but his chin was worse than Khan and Roy combined.

there's no doubt cotto is better than floyd. he may not have the ducking or running power that floyd does, but he's stronger, he's proven he can fight wars and his resume is better than floyds.

however, neither are better or even close to pacquiaos level. i used to think pacquiao was the product of hype and with reason, most people knew who he was after the de la hoya fight. let's be honest, there are fans in this forum who became pacquiao stans after de la hoya, then claiming he was the GOAT based on that. not to mention there were questions of, what would've happened if it was the DLH we knew who punched back. was he drained? probably so. was he past his prime? probably so.

then came the ricky hatton guy. a perfect style for pacquiao. a guy who doesn't stay in shape between fights and who's defense and offensive attacks are just plain ******ed. (just rewatch the KO and see how hatton went in lol smh).

i had truly no reason to think or believe he could stand in there with welterweights who were still somewhere around their prime and would punch back. not to mention, welterweights that had been in wars before and could take heavy punches.

then comes the cotto fight and that puts all doubts to sleep. what better way to gain respect than with your actions. pacquiao definitely gained my respect, i have no more doubts. this fight didn't just make people see pacquiao as a potential ATG but this solidified his wins over dlh and hatton. the guy is that powerful and that good. and i'll be supporting and rooting for manny on the night of the 13th.

If Cotto is so great why did Bob Arum treat him like a frail baby when both Floyd and Cotto were 140?

Arum wanted to protect his prized puerto rican from the superior Mayweather.

From one Cotto fan to another - Dude, are you kidding me?

Cotto is a warrior and a very good fighter, but give me a break.

That's bull****. Cotto never ducked anyone. That lame **** about fighting Mayweather at 140 is garbage.

Cotto would starch Mayweather at 140 too.
