    c) Cotto- for going toe to toe against the best fighter in the planet though he was outgunned and eventually got KOed.

    I think it's Cotto. People now have more respect for his effort because he went out of his shield to slug it out with a monster.

    Pac's reputation remains the same while Clottey's took a big hit
    Cotto...he went out fighting the only thing that was impressive abt Clottey is he wasnt all busted up, but thats cuz he stayd in his shell the ENTIRE fight. Pac stays the same we got wat we expected from him and i like that he was attacking the body.

      He isn't struggling to hit 147. Dude already came from 140. Where are you getting your information from?

            in who's world?

            you know this is a sport where even if you are getting hammered there is always a shot you can get back into a fight. Not even with one punch if you can string together rounds then momentum swings in your favor.

            I am glad you do not train Cotto because if you did he would be called a quitter for those types of actions

            "well Miggy you're getting clobbered how about we stop right here, let Brian jump off the balcony into a pool, and grab a bite?"

            idiot

              I won't argue with you guys if you don't think 2 lbs doesn't make a difference in boxing. This just shows your lack of boxing knowledge and discredits everything you say. If it wasn't such a big deal then why would Manny's camp push for it? As far as Cotto saying it was not a problem, what do you expect him to say? "The weight is going to affect me, and I'm going to be drained so just don't even bother watching the fight"? Give me a break.

                too bad LA has no stadium to be proud of or we could see some action out here

                oh well

                I do know that they are also eyeing NJ's new Giant Stadium and possibly Reliant in Houston

                  been had respect for Cotto.. he tried and did everything he could do.
                  it makes me appreciate his effort even more how Pacquiao demolished Clottey though..
                  it really puts what kind of monster he is in perspective.

                  lots of respect to Manny to for shutting one of the toughest guys in the division out though.

                    So a dude struggling to make 147 comes in at 146 in his previous fight?

                      Pacquiao beats Cotto at 140, 145, 147 and 154.
