    Me: What do you think of the Pac steroid allegations?
    ES: Mannys a clean fighter, theres no truth to it.
    Me: Pacquiao-Clottey, who wins?
    ES: Pacquiao easily.
    Me: Pacquiao-Mayweather, who wins?
    ES: long pause..
    My homie: Pacquiao a clean fighter?
    ES: Yes.

    Mannys cool as fack.
    Men STFU with the Pacquiao BS. Theres enough threads about it, GTFO

      Yes I remeber. But I'm talkin about him not using his jab and actually boxing. JT wasn't crazy technical but he did have solid skills.

      I will say this tho manny is good at fight plans but as far as teaching the technical aspect he is not as good(as he should be anyway)

        What is the point. Cotto is physically past his prime. Steward could teach him everything possible but it won't get Cotto nowhere. Since you need a heart and chin to get somewhere.

        You can't teach an quitter new tricks

            Cotto will not learn anything now for sure! Steward is known to be a lenient coach who only trains you 4 days a week, according to a couple of guys I know. And his game plans are come forward and try to k.o your opponent as soon as the opening bell sounds. Goodbye Cotto, your career is sure to be over now.

              Nah I think he got 2 fights left. As far as the quiting thing go I wouldn't even count that marg fight. I personally think they should take that L off his record. He was getting hit a lot by pac but he didn't quit. They stop that to give Pac the KO.

                IIRC Manny wanted to train him for the Pacquiao fight.

                    Good news for Cotto if it's true.

                    He needs to stop being stubborn and learn from a great trainer.

                      Sadly I think this is a classic case of too little too late.

                      Friggin' Cotto should have picked up Steward immediately after the Evangelista dust up...

                      Oh well. Better late then never I guess.
