Was it a mistake by Pacquiao to let Cotto tee off on him?

No it was genius

what information?

if they had any information you think their big mouths would have kept it quiet?

all this started publicly with floyd sr.

only cause for this su****ion because of how good pacquiao looked in the higher weight classes.

if hatton or cotto or delahoya had ktfo pacquiao , none of this talk would even happen.

I wouldn't say that, I remember clearly how all went. After a good week, Mayweather Sr. was that so called "Crackhead" and no one took him seriously. I mean, I didn't even take Floyd Sr. serious myself, although I was skeptical for the longest. Fact is, Pacquiao had the power to squash all this and chose not to.

Honestly, I get the feeling that Mayweather got some sort of info we know nothing of. That or Mayweather wants to assure himself of a fair bout. That is all there is to it in my opinion. I wouldn't think too much into it. The problem I have is that Pacquiao and his camp stirred all this. Pacquiao probably doesn't know that this lawsuit was triggered because of his own camp.

But that's all based on assumptions, not facts.

There's no trail of evidence that would make anyone think Pacquiao is doping up or has been in the past. Matter of fact, nobody was talking about Pacquiao doping even as early as a couple months ago during the preparations for the Cotto fight. So based on his performance against Cotto (who he was the favorite in mind you), we're supposed to assume he couldn't do what he did to Cotto, so now he's doping up? If you look back to when all these rumors started, there hasn't been one shred of evidence that would prove Pac's on anything besides now people jumping the gun because of the dispute of random drug testing. But does that make Pacquiao guilty or is he simply standing his ground? I believe if the roles were reversed many of the Floyd fans would be singing the same tune many of the Pacquiao fans and really a lot of the sports journalists who've made articles about the situation have already.

that's pac's pr problem. he only have him and his team to blame.

that said......there is no evidence to support that he does anything or to even cause su****ion.

what's the only cause of su****ion? there's no reason he should be this good moving up in weight. he was 106 and now he's 147.

lame.

You starting to sound like an idiot. Senior had already mentioned Pac's steroids before the Cotto fight. Floyd mentioned the Philippines having the best enhancement drug before the Cotto fight. How do you think Pac started this when there was nothing signed for Pac vs. May? There would have been no problem had Floyd not inserted that blood testing should be random.

Died down in what way? That the talk of Pacquiao was doping up?

Any boxing fan would know that Pacquiao saw all of Cotto's shots coming when he went to the ropes and was able to catch them on his arms and gloves, which is why he was able to take those shots. He didn't get caught flush by any of Cotto's punches in that exchange.

He got caught by a big uppercut that stunned him in the 5th, and was being pushed back by Cotto's jab until Miguel got on his bike. Other than that, he wasn't in serious trouble.

If that is the basis of most them they have to be ****in ******.. If u watch pac's sparring he lets them guys tee off at him exactly like cotto.. Pac's tolerance for pain is probably the best in the business.. I mean the guy lets his ribs get whacked by a ****in bamboo stick..
